The Athenee Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, has completed a 10 million baht (US$308,356) upgrade to its event technology, installing the largest in-hotel LED screens in Bangkok.
Integrated into the Crystal and Grand Hall ballrooms, the new P2.6 LED system measures up to 27 metres wide and five metres high. The modular installation allows organisers to split or resize screens into nine-metre, 18-metre, or 27-metre configurations to suit different staging needs.
The investment aims to increase the hotel’s competitiveness in the regional business events market by providing convention-centre-grade technology within a luxury setting, said the hotel’s general manager Blair Fowler.
“Our LED infrastructure enables us to meet world-class production standards while improving operational efficiency and sustainability,” Fowler added.
The digital transition also reduces environmental impact by eliminating the need for single-use printed backdrops, vinyl panels, and temporary scenic constructions. The high-definition screens also consume less energy than traditional projection systems, and offer 800 nits of brightness optimised for ballroom lighting.
The Athenee Hotel features 30 meeting rooms in Bangkok’s CBD, including the Crystal Hall and Grand Hall ballrooms, which accommodate 1,500 and 1,200 guests respectively.
