Height shouldn't be an issue; there's a 2nd floor, just not in the convention hall areas. There's actually what looks like a sort of press box above Hall 4.

The halls are laid out in a reverse L shape.

Noise will be an issue. There better be seating in there...

My bet is that Halls 4 and 5 will be used for the pit fields; Halls 1-3 will be the rest of the pits (including practice fields).
