Hello, I am new here.I am a student currently studying lighting design with moderate experience in AutoCAD (specifically venue creation and lighting plots) and I have run into some trouble with a project I was given.The project was to make a stage and lighting plot for a concert/theatre performance in a higher scale venue. The catch was the venue had to be real. Each student was given a different location to choose venues from but we had to choose specifically large scale venues if we were doing concerts. When I got japan, I was excited and upset because I couldn't choose from any of the smaller live houses like Shibuya AX or CC Lemon (I chose concert as opposed to theatre. It just seems to be my forte). The list was split into the concert list and theatre list, so I had the choice between Yoyogi International Gymnasium, Tokyo Dome, Nippon Budokan, Nagoya Dome, Saitama Super Arena, Yokohama Arena, Makuhari Messe (the arena/event hall, not the exhibition halls), Kyocera Dome (aka Osaka Dome), and Sapporo Dome.I chose Nippon Budokan.I spent a long time looking for dimensions and found it's height from floor to ceiling and a floor plan with nothing labelled except seating, but other than that, only interior images to go off of. If I could get a dwg or at the very least just some dimensions to work with so I can make it myself, I would be incredibly greatful! I asked my professor if I could download a dwg of the venue, and he said any assets or venues online are fair game as long as they have a real life counterpart.I hope I can get some help! Otherwise I may have to change my choice (permitting that I can do so)

Did you try searching the SketchUp 3D Warehouse?  Maybe someone has already created a model.
