Expert Guide to Finding the Perfect Seats for David Copperfield's Las Vegas Show

The David Copperfield Theater at MGM Grand offers an intimate 740-seat venue where every seat provides a great view of the legendary magician's illusions. Below is my expert breakdown of the best value tickets, premium options, and seating recommendations to help you choose the perfect seats for your budget and preferences.

Best Value Tickets ($124-$139)

• Section 2, Row S ($124-$140): Front side sections with excellent angled views of the stage. Rows S are elevated slightly for better sightlines over front sections.
• Section 2, Rows 1Q-6Q ($124-$139): Center-rear orchestra seating with direct frontal views. Rows 3Q-6Q offer the best value in this section.
• Section 1, Row 17H ($138): Rear center orchestra - farther back but perfectly centered for the full stage perspective.

Sweet Spot Seats ($162-$182)

• Section 1, Rows 1H-11H ($166-$183): Center orchestra seating with ideal viewing height. Rows 4H-8H are the "goldilocks zone" - not too close, not too far.
• Section 2, Rows 1J-10J ($180-$182): Front side sections closer to the stage. Excellent for seeing details of Copperfield's close-up magic.
• Section 2, Rows 1N-7N ($182): Side sections with unique angled perspectives that sometimes reveal "how it's done" moments.

Higher Tier Options ($195-$260)

• Section 1, Rows 4G-13G ($195-$235): Premium center orchestra closer to the stage. Rows 4G-7G offer the best balance of proximity and viewing angle.
• Section 1, Rows 1A-7D ($232-$260): Front orchestra rows - you'll feel part of the show but may need to look up slightly at some illusions.
• Section 2, Rows L-P ($216-$225): Closest side sections to the stage - great for interaction but slightly obstructed views of some effects.

Premium/VIP Seats ($271-$421)

• Section 1, Rows F-H ($248-$276): Center orchestra VIP sections with the most comfortable seating and best overall sightlines.
• Section 1, Rows 1A-7B ($341-$421): Front row and premium center seats - expect possible audience participation and unparalleled closeness to the magic.

View Comparison & Recommendations

• For Best Value: Section 2, Rows 3Q-6Q ($137-$139) offer nearly center views at 40% less than comparable center orchestra seats.
• For Magic Enthusiasts: Section 2, Rows 1J-3J ($180) provide revealing angles of Copperfield's techniques while still maintaining great visibility.
• For Premium Experience: Section 1, Rows 4G-7G ($195-$198) deliver the perfect balance of proximity and panoramic view of the entire stage.
• For Intimacy: Section 1, Rows 1A-3A ($260-$421) put you in the action with highest chance of being called on stage.

Special Seating Notes

• Rows marked with "Q" are elevated about 12 inches higher than standard rows, improving sightlines over heads in front.
• Side sections (Section 2) actually provide better views of some illusions than center seats due to the nature of perspective magic.
• Avoid seats behind rows marked with "M" or "P" as these may have slightly obstructed views of flying effects.

• 4 tickets in Section 2, Row S for $124 each (Best budget option)
• 2 tickets in Section 1, Row 17H for $138 each (Best center-view value)
