TicketHold | Duquoin State Fair Seating Chart & Seat Views Guide

Your Ultimate Guide to the Duquoin State Fair Grandstand

The Duquoin State Fair Grandstand is a historic venue hosting concerts, rodeos, and motorsports. With a capacity of 7,500, it offers an intimate yet vibrant atmosphere. Understanding the seating chart ensures you get the best experience for your budget.

Seating Chart Breakdown

  • Grandstand Seats: Covered seating with good elevation, ideal for concerts and races. Center sections (100s) offer the best sightlines.
  • Track-Level Seats: Closest to the action for motorsports but may have obstructed views during concerts due to staging.
  • Bleachers: Affordable uncovered seating on the sides. Great for budget-conscious fans but limited legroom.

Best Seats by Event

  • Concerts: Sections 101-103 (center) for unobstructed stage views. Avoid extreme sides (Sections 107+ or 120+) for skewed angles.
  • Rodeos/Races: Rows 5-15 in lower grandstands balance proximity and visibility. Higher rows (20+) provide a panoramic track view.

VIP & Accessibility

  • VIP Boxes: Private covered seating with premium amenities. Ideal for groups.
  • Accessibility: Designated wheelchair areas in Sections 105 and 122 with companion seating.

Pro Tips

Check event-specific staging setups, as obstructions vary. For concerts, aim for seats marked "full stage view." Arrive early for bleacher seating—first-come, first-served.
