Your Complete Guide to Century II’s Bell Convention Hall Seating

The Bell Convention Hall at Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center is a premier venue in Wichita, hosting concerts, theater, and corporate events. Its versatile layout offers a range of seating options, from intimate orchestra sections to spacious balcony tiers. Here’s how to navigate the seating chart for the best experience.

Seating Chart Breakdown

• Orchestra (Floor): Closest to the stage, ideal for immersive performances. Rows A–F offer unobstructed views, but rear floor seats may have slight elevation issues.
• Lower Balcony: Elevated perspective with excellent sightlines. Center sections (100s) provide balanced views, while side sections (e.g., 101/102) may have angled stage views.
• Upper Balcony: Budget-friendly with a panoramic view. Avoid far-side seats (e.g., 201/202) for events with heavy staging.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Concerts: Orchestra rows C–G (center) for energy, Lower Balcony 104–106 for acoustics.
• Theater: Lower Balcony front row (row A) for full-stage visibility.
• Speeches: Upper Balcony center (row C) for clear sightlines.
