It's probably impossible to measure it exactly due to inconsistent animation, but if I had to guess I'd say maybe about 500 meters in diameter?

However big it needs to be for the current action or shot. I know that's vague but it's what it is.

Well the ring is obviously nowhere near the size of a planet or a star, or a country, or a city, or even a town for that matter. If you're talking about the World of Void being compared to a planet or a star, it's as infinite as space itself.

I'm guessing it's probably around 2 baseball parks in size, but like GodKaio-Ken said, it's however big it needs to be for the current action/shot. Sometimes it looks like a character can get thrown from one side of the ring to another, other times it looks like they'll travel for 3 miles and still be in the ring.

It just seems to be as big as the shot needs it to.

I think I'll concur with what has been previously said about it being as big as it needs to be.

For example, this is a shot of Hit and Jiren in the spirit bomb crater from 111 in comparison to this closer version of just Goku in the same crater in 110, to another shot of the same crate in 110.
