Bolt it to the ground with a chain.
Hello -I agree with Dee chains would be my suggestion. Many outdoot retail displays are protected this way.
You can anchor the chains to a concrete block. You can paint the blocks to match the chair decor.
Hopefully these ideas help. https://www.thriftyfun.com/tf75924557.tip.html
