TicketHold | Kansas State Fair Seating Chart Guide – Best Seats & Views

Your Complete Guide to Navigating the Kansas State Fair Arena

The Kansas State Fairgrounds is a premier venue hosting concerts, rodeos, and events in Hutchinson. With a mix of grandstand seating, track-side options, and VIP areas, understanding the seating chart ensures you get the best experience for your budget.

Seating Chart Breakdown

  • Grandstand Lower Level (Sections A-D): Closest to the stage/action, ideal for concerts and rodeos. Slight angle ensures clear views but may lack shade.
  • Upper Level (Sections E-G): Elevated perspective, great for overviews at motorsports. Rear rows may feel distant for concerts.
  • Track-Side General Admission: Unreserved bleachers near the arena floor—budget-friendly but limited legroom.

Best Seats by Event

  • Concerts: Center Sections B/C (rows 10-20) balance proximity and sound quality.
  • Rodeos: Lower Level sides (A/D) for close-up barrel racing views.
  • Motorsports: Upper Level (E/F) to see the entire track.

Seat View Tips

  • Avoid extreme sides (Sections A/D) for concerts—stage angles may obscure performers.
  • Check for obstructions like support beams in Upper Level rear rows.
  • Early arrival secures prime GA spots for festivals.

VIP & Accessibility

  • VIP Boxes: Covered seating with premium sightlines and concessions access.
  • Accessible Seating: Designated areas in Lower Level and ramps throughout.

Pro Tips

Use TicketHold’s interactive map to compare views. For families, aim for aisle seats in Lower Level. Budget shoppers can find value in Upper Level front rows.
