Wherever it gets cold
SmartSeats are made for every venue where spectators sit outdoors in the cold, from biathlon to football.
Biathlon & winter sports
Outdoor events lasting several hours at temperatures well below freezing: a perfect fit for heated grandstands.
Alpine skiing & ski jumping
Spectators sit outdoors for hours. Warmth increases how long they stay and how much they spend.
Football & hockey
Autumn and spring season: cold enough for heating, warm enough for high occupancy.
First pilot: Oberhof 2026
