The Adelaide Oval has a total capacity of 53,500. On the Northern Mound there is seating for 3,000 and standing room for 3,500. The Western Stand has a capacity of 14,000 seats, the Riverbank Stand has 14,000 seats and the Eastern Stand has 19,000.
From my observation boundary riding for Triple MMM and looking around when on the oval at breaks
Northern Mound almost full ................................................................. 6000 out of 6500
Eastern Stand 1st level full, 2nd level 80%, top tier 90% .............. 17,500 out of 19,000
Western Stand 1st level full, 2nd level full, top tier 75% .............. 11,500 out of 14,000
Riverbank Stand - lower level full, 2nd level 90%, top tier empty .. 5,000 out of 14,000
TOTAL ........................................................................................... 40,000 .out of 53,500
Ie I think the figure was pretty much spot on.
