Section Differences

• SEC A/E (Left/Right): Side views but closer to some stage elements. Better for seeing certain props.
• SEC B/D (Center): Classic head-on views of all stage action. Best for first-time attendees.
• SEC C: Left orchestra - excellent for seeing the band area and certain comedy bits.
• SEC AA: Premium center section - you'll see every facial expression and possibly get pulled onstage.

Pro Tip

Blue Man Group shows are highly interactive. Seats in the first 5 rows (especially center sections) have the highest chance of audience participation. If you prefer to watch rather than participate, aim for rows F-J in the center sections.
