Canton Memorial Civic Center Seating Chart & Seat Views Guide

Your Ultimate Resource for the Best Seats at Every Event

The Canton Memorial Civic Center is a premier multi-purpose arena in Ohio, hosting concerts, sports, and family shows. Known for its intimate atmosphere and excellent sightlines, choosing the right seat enhances your experience. This guide breaks down the seating chart, views, and tips to help you pick the perfect spot.

Seating Chart Overview

• Lower Bowl (Sections 1-10): Closest to the action, ideal for concerts and sports. Slight angle distortion near corners.
• Upper Bowl (Sections 11-20): Elevated views with a broader perspective, best for hockey/basketball. Rear rows may feel distant.
• Floor Seats: Unmatched proximity for concerts but flat layout can hinder visibility for shorter attendees.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Concerts: Center sections (5-6) in rows 5-15 offer balanced audio/visuals. Avoid extreme side sections (1, 10) for skewed stage views.
• Sports: Mid-level (Sections 12-15) near center ice/court for optimal gameplay visibility.

Seat Views & Obstructions

Lower bowl rows A-F provide clear views, but check for railing obstructions in front rows. Upper bowl rows A-D are steep but unobstructed; rear rows may have overhang effects from concourses.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Suites: Private lounges with catering, ideal for groups. Located mid-level for panoramic views.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible seating in every section, with companion seats. Request early for best placement.

Pro Tips

• Use 3D seat maps (via TicketHold) to preview sightlines.
• Balance budget and experience—mid-upper center often offers the best value.
• For families, aim for aisle seats near exits in lower bowl.
