TicketHold | Fred G. Hughes Stadium Seating Chart & Seat Views Guide

Your Ultimate Guide to the Best Seats at Fred G. Hughes Stadium

Fred G. Hughes Stadium is a premier venue known for hosting concerts, sports events, and community gatherings. With a capacity of 15,000, its versatile layout offers a range of seating options to suit every preference and budget. This guide breaks down the seating chart, highlights the best views, and helps you choose the perfect spot for your next event.

Seating Chart Overview

Lower Bowl (Sections 100-200): Closest to the action, ideal for immersive experiences. Rows A-F offer unbeatable proximity, while higher rows (G-K) provide a elevated yet clear view. Potential drawback: Limited legroom in front rows.

Upper Bowl (Sections 300-400): Budget-friendly with a panoramic perspective. Best for large-scale events like concerts, but avoid extreme side sections (301, 332) for skewed sightlines.

Best Seats by Event Type

  • Concerts: Center sections (115-120) for balanced audio and stage views.
  • Sports: Mid-level sidelines (205-210) for optimal gameplay visibility.
  • Family Shows: Aisle seats in lower bowl (Rows D-G) for easy access.

Seat Views & Obstructions

Lower bowl center sections provide unobstructed views, while upper rows may have minor overhang from concourses. Avoid columns in historic sections (e.g., 104, 108).

VIP & Accessibility

  • VIP Suites: Private lounges with catering (Sections CL1-CL5).
  • Accessible Seating: Wheelchair-accessible areas in every tier with companion seats.

Pro Tips

  • Use TicketHold’s 3D seat viewer to preview your view.
  • For budget seats, aim for upper bowl center (Sections 315-320).
  • Check event-specific configurations (e.g., stage setup for concerts).
