Determining Seating Capacity for 72-inch Round Tables

72 Inch Round Table Seating Capacity by Circumference
One way to determine seating capacity is to look at the circumference of the round table and decide how much space each person will require at the table. So let's break this down into inches. The circumference of a 72-inch table is about 226 inches. In general, to sit comfortably most people need about 24 inches of table space. With a round-shaped table, that can be fudged a little bit because people will actually be seated farther away from each other - because of the round table shape - than on a rectangular table. So, doing some quick math, having 10 people seated at the table gets each person 22.6 inches of table perimeter for seating.Estimated Capacity by Activity
Different table activities require different amounts of space to work with. For instance, eating dinner at a table likely requires less space than a poster board art project for a school. Estimating space for each person will be very important to determine the actual seating capacity of the table. Ready to start shopping? Check out our Lifetime round tables.

We estimated in our circumference method above that 72-inch round tables likely have enough space to seat 10 people in general. However, what if the occupants were all first graders? What if they were all football players? That seating capacity could change considerably depending on what size of person will be seated at the table. In general, seating capacity can be broken down as follows: 46/48-inch round tables can seat 6, 60-inch round tables can seat 8, and 72-inch round tables can seat 10. From these numbers, use the other two methods to see if you can squeeze a few more people around the table, or if occupants might need more space than normal, which will limit the amount of seating positions.View Video of Commercial Lifetime 72 Inch Round Tables & Chairs Combo

I have never actually thought about this, we usually just pile in and that's that. But with an upcoming celebration that we have, we have those same sized tables and this will help us figure out how many we can seat comfortably.
