Gaylord Rockies: planning rigging in Adams Ballroom https://glmedia.tech/technical-help/gaylord-rockies-adams-rigging/ Plan audiovisual rigging for Adams Ballroom at Gaylord Rockies in Aurora, Colorado. The 2021 reference drawing identifies points, heights and suspension conditions for this room. Confirm the applicable revision and event loads with the venue before designing the installation. Identify the room and partition, list every suspended item, and compare the layout with the venue’s applicable drawing revision. The reference drawing calls for load review before load-in. Do not add point ratings to determine total capacity. Documentation scope Marriott lists Encore among its service partners. Encore provides separate resources for Adams, Aurora, Aurora Expo Hall, Colorado, Juniper and Lodge. The figures in this guide come from the Adams drawing; use the room-specific documentation for an event in another space. Labels on the Adams drawing The table summarizes labels on the 2021 drawing available through the official resource on October 20, 2026. These are documented reference values, not approved capacities for your event. Confirm the revision, usable points, simultaneous loading, and geometry before final calculations. Adams drawing item | Labeled value | Use limitation Rigging points | 127 | Does not establish simultaneous availability WLL per point | 1,000 lb | Do not sum to calculate overall capacity Minimum / maximum ceiling heights | 24 ft / 28 ft 4 in | Does not establish clear installation height Preparing the suspension plan The drawing notes require disclosure of all suspended items regardless of weight and verification of point loads before load-in. They also assign load review and provision of hoists and controls to Encore. Confirm that scope in the applicable event terms; do not infer blanket AV exclusivity. Building systems and obstructions The drawing distinguishes installed points, speakers, HVAC, ceiling lights, and sprinklers. Its notes prohibit suspension from airwall tracks and describe the drawing as approximate. Technical recommendation: document obstructions and usable heights in the project, without treating building-system symbols as authorized attachment points. Services and logistics to confirm For Adams, prepare electrical demand, equipment weights and the load-in route. Request the assigned power, concentrated floor-load limits and authorized loading route from the venue. Encore offers rigging, power distribution and internet services; coordinate those needed for the installation. Before finalizing the installation The drawing describes intermittent event use and excludes permanent support. Once the project is defined, assemble the applicable revision, load and point-combination approvals, selected services and assigned logistics before installation. Does the 2021 drawing authorize a current installation? No. The official provider links it, but the revision, terms, and event approval still require confirmation. Can these figures be used for Aurora Ballroom? No. This review applies exclusively to the Adams Ballroom resource. Is there an approved total rigging capacity? Overall capacity depends on load distribution and venue approval. Multiplying the point count by the labeled WLL cannot establish it. Documentation: Marriott and Encore, available October 20, 2026. The Adams BR drawing is dated 2021 and retains its original units. Confirm the applicable revision and event load approval with the venue.
