Making An Auditorium Theater Seating Plan

By Winnie Ford


Now organizers of seminars or stage events would have to think about a lot of things like the setup, the speaker, and of course the audience. One of the most important things that they must think about would actually be the auditorium theater seating arrangement. In advanced, they must already plan how and where each guest will be seated in the bunch of seats that will be provided for them.

Now the very first thing to do would be to get a diagram of the entire area to see how many chairs there are in total. Take note that this is very important because the facilitators will be comparing the number of chairs to the number of guests that will be coming later on. Of course they would also have to make some room for the last minute guests that would arrive.

After counting the number of seats that are in the place, the next thing to do would be to count the number of guests that would be arriving. If the place is already a full house, then one would choose whether he would allow some space for people to stand and watch the seminar. If it is not, then some space has to be allocated for those who would attend at the last minute.

Once all of that is done, then the very next thing to do would be to check the list for any important people or simply VIPs. Planning for the VIPs is very important simply because they are usually the sponsors of the event or people who have helped organize it. So the task here is to now have a head count of how many VIPs are in the room.

After one has counted the VIPs who have already arrived, then the very next thing to do would be to reserve one whole spot for them. In a regular event, they would be place in the front seats wherein they can have a nice view of the stage. Now if there are some balcony seats, then they may actually also be placed there.

Now the organizers must also make sure that those with injuries or disabilities are also comfortable. Now there are actually going to be people who are going to be seated in wheelchairs. Of course they are going to take up quite a bit of space in the place which is why organizers have to make sure that they know who these people are.

Of course these disabled people will come with someone who will take care of them. Now in order to address this, the organizers have to make sure to also take into count these caretakers. Organizers would have to provide an extra seat for the caretakers as well.

So as one can see, planning an auditorium theater seating arrangement is a very important part of the event. This is because it is a must that all guests are comfortable while they are watching the said event. It is for this reason that the organizers would have to be very vigilant with the seats.
