Durable and sturdy, telescopic seating can be designed to suit the needs of just about any building layout in the world. Beautiful yet tough, and available with plastic, wooden or fabric chairs, when not in use a retractable seating stand can be drawn in partially or fully (freeing up space in which to hold other types of events, competitions and classes).
Cultural event spaces, theatres, auditoriums, sports arenas, conference halls.... across the UK there's an increasing number of venues, all of which are vying for business constantly. Through word of mouth, online marketing and other platforms, if yours can become known as a venue that puts on a vast array of events all-year-round, that can help establish it as 'the place to go'. This isn't only hugely positive for the venue itself, but also for the town or city where it's located. Switching to retractable seating really can help to put your venue and its surrounding area on the map all the more.
Public Budgets
Let's imagine that you work for a local council, in a senior technical role. For you, budgets and cost control are major considerations, but you also need to convey the right image at your venue. You're answerable to the electorate, after all, and your seniors (who keep cutting your budget year on year!), are expecting you and your small technical and admin' team to get the maximum use out of the pubic venue, but in a manner that's cost-effective and doesn't involve massive investment. Installing affordable retractable seating is a way to please all parties, for so many reasons.
Downtime Minimised
A common problem at so many venues is knowing how to balance the books during downtime between events, or during the removal of an existing seating system to make room for a new one. The good news is that, with modern retractable seating systems, installation ('mounting') is usually a surprisingly quick process, with minimum disruption to normal everyday operations. That means you may be able to successfully complete the seating change-over without losing any potential bookings. Leaving a worrying amount of dates free in your events diary may not be necessary.
Will the electorate in your region be approving of your seating investment? They will if it soon generates increased revenue, boosting the local economy. But no only that. Having a modern, thriving venue that's determinedly inclusive: hosting a wonderfully diverse range of events for all age groups and audience-types can help enhance a town or city's positive image, not only in the UK, but Europe-wide. What's more, putting on more events can also mean job creation, which is always a winner with voters.
