Spectator Seating

Research: Building infrastructure to support community events

Whether one is talking about attending a game to view a professional franchise team play, or an event at the local high school-community, spectator events and the places they are held have a galvanizing effect on communities.

Whether planning seating at a local school sports field. or creating a grand arena to anchor a city's infrastructure., comfortably accommodating spectators in a venue takes in depth planning, considerations for usage and amenities, and an understanding of design considerations and applications. PlayCore's expertise, planning tools and product selection can help.

Program: Resources to help guide planning

The Make A Stand™ guidebook was created to help communities plan, design, purchase, install, and maintain spectator seating. It’s a comprehensive guide designed to help build the kind of facility that meets your community’s specific and unique needs. In addition to design considerations and applications, the text reviews an overall history of spectator seating venues, modern standards and criteria, seating types and accessories, tips on purchasing and maintenance, and ways to include the community in the planning of the project. In addition, several case studies are offered to highlight specific communities and their approach and success.

Whether adding bleachers at a local park or undertaking a huge stadium build, this guidebook is a valuable resource. In addition, our product brands have a wide application of knowledge in building spectator seating options that meet unique needs, and have experience in projects of every size from providing a small tip and roll moveable bleacher to creating NASCAR and professional sport arenas.
