Stadium seating is a kind of seating arrangement that ensures optimum viewing experience. It is available in a variety of shape, color and size. The stadium seating also has complex engineering, which allows the seats to retract or fold, making it convenient for cleaning or accommodation viewers. For most stadium seating, all seats are placed higher than the seats immediately in front of them; this ensures that the occupants on further-back seats have less of their views blocked by those in front of them. This is especially necessary in stadiums where the subject matter is typically best observed from a higher angle, rather than in-line or from below, which usually happens in arena/theatre seating.

Stadium seating is included in the category of products that is purchased occasionally. Hence, the demand for such products has remained quite consistent among buyers. The outbreak of the novel coronavirus has negatively affected the growth of the market worldwide. There has been a decrease in sales of stadium seating due to slowdown in production owing to the worldwide lockdown. Furthermore, the disruption of supply chain has also affected the supply of the product to the global market.

The growth of the stadium seating market can be attributed to growing interest of people toward sports and games. Growing popularity of spending the day outside the home premise and into recreational activities or events fuels the growth of the stadium seating market. Furthermore, increase in the number of stadiums being made/established all around the world also drives the market growth for stadium seating market. However, growing threat of security acts as a major restraint for the global stadium seating market growth. On the contrary, development of new seating technology is expected to make way for the growth of stadium seating market in the coming years.
