“Recently, at a CBA game, a VIP sitting on a leather sofa at the Xinjiang home court sparked widespread discussion. If sofas are not appropriate, how should this area be arranged?
It is common to have VIP seating in arenas, especially around the court’s edge, which is usually reserved for player benches. In the NBA, luxury benches serve not only as resting areas for players but are also widely used as VIP viewing seats. These benches are available to team owners, coaches, celebrities, and other distinguished guests, reflecting their status and providing special treatment within the arena.

However, sofas are generally not suitable for arena seating. The stands around the court are densely populated, while sofas are more appropriate for leisure or entertainment venues. That is why the setup at Xinjiang’s home court can feel out of place. From a professional perspective, what is needed here are high-capacity folding chairs that can support athletes’ heavier weight while being easy to arrange, transport, and store.
To address this, Avant Sports has specially designed a luxury folding chair, model YH-SF/M. Compared to ordinary simple folding chairs, it meets the EN12727-2016 strength testing standard and can support up to 250 kg. Even under the weight of particularly heavy athletes, it will not break or suffer damage. The chairs can also be easily interconnected with a simple locking mechanism, ensuring that once arranged, the seating remains stable and does not shift easily due to collisions.


Nowadays, around the courts of major international basketball arenas, comfortable, practical, and atmosphere-appropriate luxury folding chairs have long been widely used!
