BMO Pavilion Seating Chart & Seat Views – Best Seats for Concerts & Events

Your Guide to the Perfect Seat at Milwaukee’s Premier Outdoor Venue

The BMO Pavilion, a standout open-air venue in Milwaukee’s vibrant Summerfest grounds, hosts top concerts and festivals with stunning lakefront views. Known for its intimate atmosphere and excellent acoustics, the pavilion offers a mix of reserved seating, general admission, and VIP options. Here’s how to navigate its seating chart for the best experience.

BMO Pavilion Seating Chart Breakdown

• Reserved Seating (Sections 100-300): Centrally located with clear stage views. Rows A-F in Section 200 are prime for sightlines, while higher rows may have slight sound dispersion.
• General Admission Pit: Standing-room area closest to the stage—ideal for energetic fans but lacks seating.
• Lawn (GA): Budget-friendly with a relaxed vibe, though sightlines depend on crowd density. Bring a blanket for comfort.

Best Seats for Different Events

• Concerts: Sections 200-300 (center) for balanced audio and views. Avoid extreme side sections (101, 301) for obstructed sightlines.
• Festivals: Lawn seats for flexibility or VIP boxes for shade and amenities.

Seat Views & Obstructions

Front-row reserved seats (Rows A-C) offer unobstructed views, while rear rows may have minor sound fade. Side sections face angled stage views. The lawn’s incline ensures decent visibility, but tall attendees can block sightlines.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Suites: Private lounges with catering and premium sightlines.
• Accessibility: Designated ADA seating in Sections 100/300 with companion seats.

Pro Tips

• Check weather forecasts for lawn seats; reserved seating is covered.
• Use the venue’s 3D seat map for virtual previews.
• Arrive early for GA spots near the front.
