Turning your event space into a spectator experience.
Temporary seating solutions that transform spaces and create capacity.
Every event space presents a different opportunity.
Sometimes that means transforming an unconventional location. Sometimes it means creating more capacity within an established venue.
The right temporary seating helps make the space work for your event and your audience.
Seating engineered around your space, audience and event.
Transform spaces.
When seating is considered early, there’s more opportunity to shape how a space can work.
Working with event and design teams, we look at how different seating layouts affect sightlines, audience movement and how people enter and leave their seats.
Create capacity.
Temporary seating can extend an established venue when more capacity is needed.
We design and engineer seating to respond to the infrastructure already there, whether extending an existing grandstand or adding temporary seating alongside it. The temporary seating needs to fit the existing venue visually as well as practically.
Complex sites.
The environment has a direct impact on how temporary seating is engineered.
Indoors or outdoors, the site, surrounding infrastructure and environmental conditions all shape the solution. Because we design, engineer and build, that thinking is grounded in what can actually be delivered.
The spectator experience.
How spectators connect with the action depends on more than where they sit.
Our work across sport, entertainment and brand events means we understand how spectator needs change from one event to the next. That can mean anything from general admission and covered seating to viewing platforms, VIP seating and hospitality structures.
The bigger picture.
Temporary seating is one part of a much bigger event environment.
Fan zones, hospitality spaces, stages and other temporary structures all compete for space and have their own operational needs. Considering them together helps identify where seating fits, how the different areas connect and how the overall site needs to work.
