Duane Banks Field Seating Chart & Seat Views – Best Spots for Baseball & Events

Your Guide to the Best Seats at Iowa’s Premier Baseball Stadium

Duane Banks Field, home to the University of Iowa Hawkeyes baseball team, is a fan-friendly venue with 2,500 seats offering intimate views of the action. Known for its vibrant atmosphere and modern amenities, the stadium features a mix of bleacher, chairback, and premium seating options. Whether you're catching a college baseball game or a special event, here's how to navigate the seating chart for the best experience.

Seating Chart Breakdown

• Lower Bowl (Sections 1-6): Closest to the field, with chairback seats behind home plate (Sections 3-5) offering unobstructed views. Baseline sections (1-2, 6) provide angled perspectives but may have minor foul-ball blind spots.
• Upper Bleachers (Sections 7-9): Affordable elevated seating with a broad view of the field, though farther from the action. Ideal for budget-conscious fans.
• VIP Club Seats: Behind home plate, featuring cushioned seating, in-seat service, and access to climate-controlled lounges.

Best Seats for Different Events

• Baseball Games: Sections 3-5 (rows A-F) for optimal sightlines to the pitcher’s mound and batter’s box.
• Group Outings: Baseline bleachers (Sections 1-2 or 6) for lively group dynamics.

Seat View Tips

• Avoid rows near the top of Sections 7-9—dugout roofs may partially obscure infield views.
• For shade, choose seats under the press box (Sections 4-5).

Premium & Accessible Options

• Luxury Suites: Private boxes with catering and premium sightlines.
• ADA Seating: Wheelchair-accessible spots in Sections 3 and 4 with companion seats.

Pro Tip

Check the stadium’s virtual view tool before booking to preview your seat angle. For night games, lower rows in Sections 3-5 minimize glare from lights.
