Your Ultimate Guide to Seating at Indian Wells Tennis Garden

Indian Wells Tennis Garden, home to the BNP Paribas Open, is a premier tennis venue with Stadium 1 as its centerpiece. This 16,100-seat stadium offers world-class views, but choosing the right seat can enhance your experience. Here’s a breakdown of the seating chart, views, and tips to help you pick the perfect spot.

Stadium 1 Seating Chart Overview

• Lower Bowl (Sections 101-113): Close to the action with unobstructed views, ideal for serious tennis fans. Avoid extreme side sections (101/113) for better angles.
• Upper Bowl (Sections 201-213): Budget-friendly with a elevated perspective, though farther from the court. Center sections (206-208) offer the best sightlines.
• Loge Boxes: Premium mid-level seating with cushioned chairs and extra legroom. Perfect for comfort seekers.

Best Seats for Different Events

• Day Matches: Opt for shaded seats (west side) to avoid sun exposure.
• Night Matches: Any section works, but lower bowl center provides the best atmosphere.
• Finals/VIP Events: Loge Boxes or Courtside Seats for unparalleled access.

VIP & Accessibility Options

• VIP Suites: Private lounges, catering, and premium views. Ideal for corporate outings.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible seating available in all sections. Request early for best placement.

Tips for Choosing Seats

For budget buyers, upper bowl center sections balance cost and view. Splurge on Loge Boxes for comfort or lower bowl for proximity. Check sightline maps for potential obstructions like railings.
