Building an arena/colosseum. How many tiers of seats should there be?

The idea is that you enter once you get all 3 keys (three sets of gates preventing you from going in). Once in, you start a big scripted fight. That fight being, all the "seats" are filled with various monsters and they randomly tp in at certain intervals. Once you've cleared all the monsters, you win. (This is secret level for my 16 level "miniwad".)

Arena itself won't be blank (there will be cover), and candelabras are to give you an idea of current size. The actual arena part fits in an 896*1920 square. And you won't be able to interact with the crowd until they TP in (block all linedefs)

Also, as for how "filled" the seats will be, that will vary with difficulty level, with UV having the place filled to the brim and with tougher monsters, and ITYTD it will be more sparsely populated and with less tough mobs.
