The arena plan for spectators is "shelter in place". The bowl of the dome is pretty solid, and will protect people in the stands well against stuff going on outside.

As for a tornado actually hitting the dome, the expectation is that serious damage to the dome roof would mess up the structure enough that being in enclosed areas such as restrooms would be as much as or more of a danger to more people than potentially having pieces of the roof fall.
