Your Ultimate Guide to Seating at John Smith's Stadium

John Smith's Stadium, a premier multi-purpose venue, hosts concerts, sports, and major events. Known for its vibrant atmosphere and modern amenities, choosing the right seat enhances your experience. This guide breaks down the seating chart, views, and tips to help you pick the perfect spot.

Seating Chart Overview

• Lower Bowl (100s): Closest to the action, ideal for sports and concerts. Limited legroom but unbeatable energy.
• Upper Bowl (200s): Elevated views, great for panoramic sightlines. Slightly steeper angles may affect proximity.
• Midfield/Sideline: Balanced views for sports. Center sections (104-107, 204-207) offer optimal sightlines.
• End Zones/Corners: Budget-friendly but skewed angles for some events.

Best Seats by Event

• Concerts: Sections 105-106 (center stage) or 203-204 (elevated clarity). Avoid extreme side seats.
• Football/Soccer: Midfield (Sections 106-107, 206-207) for unobstructed views.
• Family-Friendly: Lower rows in 200s (easier access, less crowding).

Seat Views & Obstructions

Lower rows (1-10) may have railings or player benches blocking sightlines. Upper rows (20+) offer clearer views but feel distant. Check for overhang obstructions in 200s under the canopy.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Suites: Private lounges, catering, and premium sightlines. Book early for high-demand events.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible seating in all sections (e.g., 101A, 201A) with companion seats.

Pro Tips

• Use 3D seat maps (like TicketHold’s) to preview your view.
• For concerts, aim for seats facing the stage head-on.
• Check event-specific configurations (e.g., stage setup for concerts).
