A grandstand is a large, often elevated structure designed to provide seating for spectators at events such as sports games, concerts, and fairs. Typically found at stadiums and racetracks, grandstands offer a clear view of the action, allowing audiences to enjoy the experience comfortably. They can vary in size and design, accommodating hundreds to thousands of people. In addition to sports, grandstands are also used for events like parades and festivals, where they serve as a focal point for viewing. The seating arrangement can include individual seats or benches, and some grandstands may have amenities like concessions and restrooms nearby for convenience.
