Banquet chair
A kind of chair · also called Stacking banquet chair, Event chair
About
A banquet chair is a compact, stackable seat designed for event halls, conferences, and formal gatherings.
These chairs are slightly narrower and lighter than standard home dining chairs to fit more seats around event tables. Most use hollow steel or aluminum frames, which keeps them light enough for staff to stack ten or more high on rolling dollies. Seat heights are designed around standard 30-inch table tops, though backrest styles range from rounded tops to square crowns.
