ABSTRACT:
A multi-purpose stadium includes a seating system which is reconfigurable between seating configurations corresponding to different playing fields, for example, football and baseball. Reconfiguration of the seating system is accomplished by removing removable seating sections, raising or lowering vertically movable seating sections, sliding or shifting horizontally movable seating sections and rotating groups of seating sections which form rotatable extensions of seating wings of a seating bowl formed by the seating system. The stadium includes a circulation system with concourses at various levels for providing access to the seating system. Bridges are provided for connecting parts of the concourses which are separated when the seating system is reconfigured.
