Best Value Tickets

For those seeking affordability without sacrificing the concert experience, the LAWN section offers the most economical options, starting at just $65. These seats provide a general open-air view of the stage, ideal for festival vibes and social atmosphere. The rows are GA (General Admission), meaning you can choose your spot on arrival, with the advantage of being close to the action without the premium price.

Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)

The Lawn GA section, particularly Rows GA0 to GA3, offers a great balance of price and view, with prices ranging from $66 to $72. These sections tend to have good availability, with some closer to the stage than the generic lawn, providing a more immersive experience with better sightlines of the stage and performance area. Sections like LAWN4 and LAWN5 with Rows GA1 to GA2 are also recommended for a good view and moderate prices around $66-$69.

Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)

Moving up in price, sections such as LAWN3 ($76–$87), LAWN10 ($87), and LAWN4 ($82–$110) offer improved sightlines and more defined views. These seats are closer to the stage and in sections with better elevation or central positioning, providing a more concert-focused experience without the highest prices. Rows like GA7 and GA8 in these sections give a more premium experience but at a higher cost.

Premium or Last-Minute Options

Premium options include sections such as GA Pit ($321+), VIP BOX ($658+), and Section 102 & 101 premium rows ($909–$1146). These seats offer the closest sightlines, exclusive access, and enhanced comfort. Last-minute ticket buyers might find higher-tier seats in the $1000+ range, like the VIP or Pit sections, providing an immersive experience right at the front.

Seat Section & View Highlights

• Rows GA0-GA3 in Lawn GA: Near the front of the lawn, offering a good balance of price and proximity. These rows provide clear views of the stage with some elevation, ideal for enjoying the performance without the high cost of premium seats.
• Sections LAWN3 & LAWN4 ($76–$110): Closer to the stage, with sections slightly elevated or centrally located, offering better sightlines and a more intimate concert experience.
• Section 102 & 101 Rows (from $909): These are premium reserved seats with direct sightlines, often in elevated or central locations, providing the best views of the stage and performance area.
• VIP & Pit Sections ($658+): Front-row and exclusive areas with unobstructed views, ideal for an immersive experience and memorable concert moments.

Differences in Sections & Views

The Gorge Amphitheatre's layout features a natural slope with sections numbered and named accordingly. The Lawn sections (GA, Lawn4, Lawn5) are open-air with no fixed seats, offering flexibility but less control over view angles. Closer sections like LAWN3 and LAWN4 are generally elevated or positioned centrally, providing improved sightlines. Reserved seats in Sections 101 and 102 are on raised platforms or in front of the stage, offering the clearest views. Premium areas like VIP boxes and Pit sections give exclusive, front-row perspectives with minimal obstructions, perfect for an up-close experience of Dave Matthews Band's performance.
