Your Ultimate Guide to the Best Seats at Penn State’s Premier Arena

The Bryce Jordan Center, Penn State’s iconic 15,000-seat arena, hosts concerts, basketball games, and major events. Known for its vibrant atmosphere, choosing the right seat ensures an unforgettable experience. Here’s a breakdown of the seating chart, views, and tips to help you decide.

Seating Chart Overview

• Lower Bowl (Sections 101-124): Closest to the action, ideal for concerts and games. Center sections (112-117) offer unobstructed views, while side sections may have slight angle distortions.
• Upper Bowl (Sections 201-224): Budget-friendly with elevated views. Rows 1-5 in the upper bowl provide a clear overview, but higher rows feel distant for smaller events.
• Floor Seats: Reserved for concerts, these offer an immersive experience but may lack elevation for shorter attendees.

Best Seats for Different Events

• Concerts: Sections 112-117 (Lower Bowl) or front-floor seats. Avoid extreme side sections (101-103, 122-124) for skewed stage views.
• Basketball Games: Mid-court Lower Bowl (113-116) or Upper Bowl Rows 1-5 for a balanced perspective.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Suites: Private lounges with premium catering and dedicated entrances. Ideal for corporate events.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible seating available in all levels. Contact the box office for companion seating.

Pro Tips

• Use interactive seat maps to preview your view before buying.
• For concerts, check stage setups—some shows may have obstructed views in rear floor sections.
• Arrive early for GA floor seats to secure a prime spot.
