List of stadium stands by capacity

The following is a list of sports stadium stands by their seating capacity, that is the maximum number of seated spectators they can accommodate.

This is for stands only, so stands that are connected to others by some form of seating or terracing cannot be included (example Old Trafford). The list can also include former or demolished stands but not ones under construction. Only stands with a capacity of 7000 or more are included.
