TicketHold | Cathedral Theatre at the Masonic Temple Seating Guide – Best Views & Tips

Your Ultimate Guide to the Cathedral Theatre Seating Chart

The Cathedral Theatre at the Masonic Temple in Detroit is a historic gem, known for its stunning Gothic architecture and intimate atmosphere. With a capacity of just over 1,500, it offers an unparalleled live experience, whether for concerts, comedy shows, or theatrical performances. Understanding the seating chart ensures you get the best views for your event.

Seating Chart Overview

• Orchestra Level: Closest to the stage, offering clear sightlines. Rows A-F are premium but may lack elevation.
• Mezzanine: Elevated for better visibility, especially in the center. Avoid far sides for skewed angles.
• Balcony: Budget-friendly with a bird’s-eye view. Front rows (A-C) are best; rear rows may feel distant.

Best Seats for Different Events

• Concerts: Center Mezzanine (Rows 1-5) balances sound and view.
• Theatre: Orchestra Rows G-K for full stage visibility.
• Comedy: Front Orchestra (Rows A-D) for intimacy.

Seat Views & Obstructions

The theatre’s columns and overhangs in the Balcony’s rear may block sightlines. Mezzanine sides offer angled views—ideal for solo performers but less so for full-stage productions.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Boxes: Private, elevated seating with premium amenities.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible spots in Orchestra and Mezzanine with companion seating.

Pro Tips

• For budget seats, Balcony front rows outperform rear Orchestra.
