Stadium Management
Your most important fixed asset and source of recurring income.
Managing the stadium involves balancing fan demand with weekly maintenance costs.
🏟️ Seat types and economics
Each seat type has an entry price per ticket and a fixed maintenance cost paid weekly:
| Seat Type | Income per Ticket | Weekly Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Terraces | 7 € | 0,5 € |
| Regular seats | 10 € | 0,7 € |
| Seats under roof | 19 € | 1,0 € |
| VIP boxes | 35 € | 2,5 € |
🏗️ Stadium Expansion
Expansion takes a week or more and has a fixed cost of 10,000 € per project, plus the price of each new seat.
Golden Rule: Do not expand until your Member count x 20 exceeds your current capacity.
📉 Downsizing
Removing seats costs 6 €/unit. It is not recommended unless the stadium is excessively large and unsustainable.
Successful Proportions
To maximize income, maintain these proportions in your stadium:
- Terraces 60%
- Regular seats 23,5%
- Seats under roof 14%
- VIP boxes 2,5%
🌦️ Weather Factor
Rain reduces overall attendance, but fans who do show up prefer VIP boxes or seats under roof. A good proportion of these seats protects your total income against bad weather.
