Choral risers are a must-have piece of furniture in school music rooms and private music facilities. Choral risers, also known as choir risers, are tiered platforms used to organize choir members, allowing the audience to see everyone. The platforms are made from steel and plywood and often have non-slip material on the surface. This prevents individuals from falling and makes it more comfortable to stand on. Though the risers are leveled, they are sturdy and have safety features, including railings and heavy-duty locks. Choral risers are the perfect way to make a performance feel professional.

How to choose the best Risers for your School Choir
When it is time to purchase choral risers, keep in mind the following:
- Number of Individuals - If you are purchasing risers for a performance with a large group of students, we recommend purchasing one of our sets. When you purchase a set, you get all the risers needed to create an arced display. The arc shape is not only visually appealing, but it also arranges the individuals in a way that they can be seen by the entire audience.
- Space Availability - The size of choir risers needed depends on the room or stage. The size of the room can also affect the shape and style of risers that you choose. Pie risers start with a small, triangular shape and the bottom level then grow into larger rectangular pieces.
- Student Age - If you are working with younger students, you may want to choose 2-step choral risers, as they are low to the ground, even on the 2nd step. If students stepped off the top or there were an accident, they would be okay. Higher steps, such as 3 and 4-step risers, are better suited for older students who are more responsible and understand they are higher off the ground. Choral riser steps are also available to make it easy for students of all ages to go up and down the risers.
