Best Value Tickets
For the most affordable options with good proximity and view, the Balcony Left and Right sections in Rows QQ and MM offer excellent value at $189 - $237. These seats are positioned centrally in the balcony, providing a clear and enjoyable view of the stage, ideal for those seeking quality experience without the highest price tag.
Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)
The Balcony Center in Rows LL and OO priced around $245 - $336 offer a balanced mix of good sightlines and availability. These sections are close enough for a full stage view, yet more accessible and less expensive than premium or front-row seats, making them the optimal choice for most attendees.
Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)
Premium seats in the Orchestra Center Rows C, E, and H priced from $514 - $1384 offer superior proximity and stage visibility, especially for those wanting an immersive experience. However, these are higher-priced and typically less available, suitable for special occasions or VIP experiences.
Premium or Last-Minute Tickets
Exclusive front-row seats in Orchestra Left and Right Sections (Rows G, J, K, N, M) priced from $91 - $672. These seats provide the closest, most detailed views of the stage, often with premium amenities. Last-minute tickets tend to be in these sections, offering the best views but at a premium.
Differences in Sections and Views
- Balcony Sections (Balcony Left/Right and Center): Elevated view, ideal for broad stage visibility; Rows QQ and LL are central with good sightlines.
- Mezzanine (Mezz Center, Left, Right): Slightly closer than Balcony, with some seats offering a more direct view of the stage. Rows CC, EE, FF provide varied vantage points.
- Orchestra Center: Closest to the stage with the most immersive experience; Rows C, E, H are premium, while Rows J, L, P, S offer excellent views with some distance.
- Orchestra Left/Right: Slightly angled views; Rows G to N provide a good perspective, with the front rows (G, J, K) being most sought after.
Recommendations for Your Purchase
For optimal value, consider seats in the Balcony Center (Rows LL and OO), balancing price and view. If you desire a more immersive experience and proximity, the Orchestra Center Rows C, E, or H are ideal, especially for special occasions.
