Viewing Recommendations

• For Acrobatics: Sections 104/204 (elevated center) provide the best perspective for aerial acts
• For Intimacy: 100-level odd sections (101/103) put you closer to stage-left entrances
• Budget Hack: Rows M-P in 200s offer 85% of the view at 50% of lower bowl prices
• Avoid: Extreme stage-right sections (208+) may miss some acts designed for center viewing

Cirque du Soleil Specific Tips

The Grand Chapiteau configuration means even "side" sections have good views, but prioritize:

• Rows F-M in any section (avoid floor seats beyond Row D unless you're tall)
• Center 15 seats in any row (acts frequently use central performance axis)
• Consider higher rows for "Echo" - its projections work better from elevation

Price Alert Opportunities

• Section 206 has $83-$90 tickets in Rows J-O - prices may drop as event nears
• Section 201 has multiple price points - check for Row L ($120) vs. Row P ($126) value
• Last-minute releases often occur for premium Sections 101-104 48hrs before show
