Our Top 3 Recommendations

3. Budget-Friendly Magic: ORCHL Row V ($72) - unbeatable value for this production

Pro Tip for Harry Potter Fans

For the most immersive experience, choose left-orchestra or left-mezzanine seats (ORCHL/MEZZL sections) between rows J-W. These provide the ideal angles for the production's spectacular stage-left magic effects while offering comfortable viewing positions for the entire stage.
