In 2018, photos of the Legroom Citarum Stadium seats went viral without adequate legroom. As a result, the audience is uncomfortable while watching the game. Their feet overlap the chair and the bodies of the visitors in front of them. You might even get sick after watching the match.

Before going any further, we need to understand the definition of legroom. Legroom in stadium seats is an important factor in ensuring the comfort of spectators during sporting events or shows. By providing enough legroom, the viewing experience can be more enjoyable and relaxing.

Here are some specifications to consider to create optimal legroom:

Seats Distance
Providing adequate distance between seats allows spectators to stretch their legs without feeling cramped. At least 50-60 cm from the midpoint of one chair to the midpoint of the next chair is required.

Seats Inclanation
Seats with a slight tilt back can provide extra space for the audience. An inclination angle of about 16 degrees provides a balance between comfort and good visibility.

Seat Arrangement / Pattern
Accuracy in arranging seat patterns will create ideal legroom. We can start by setting up a size line space of 1,200 millimeters at each stage. Also, the height of the rack stage of the stands is 300 millimeters.

Then, we can arrange the back to back sheet distance (rarely the backs of the front row seats and the backs of the rear seats) with a minimum recommendation of 900 millimeters. In the implementation of folding chairs, this can create a seatway of 465 millimeters. The seatway space will become a comfortable legroom as well as traffic for spectators in and out of the stands.

Another alternative is to add more legroom, we can reduce the height of the stage rack from the ideal recommendation of 300 millimeters to 200 millimeters. So, we can create more degrees of inclination of the chair. This will create more legroom space. However, there will be an impact on the breadth of view of the audience in the stands. For the implementation of this, of course, careful calculations are needed with the designer as a whole.

Seat Row Arrangement
Providing the option to set the row of seats can be a plus. Some viewers may want a little more legroom.

Audience Entrance Exit Access
Providing wide aisles and easy access in and out can reduce distractions when spectators want to go to the toilet or cafeteria.
