Manuel Lujan Exhibit Complex Seating Chart & Seat Views Guide

Your Ultimate Resource for the Best Seats at New Mexico’s Premier Event Venue

The Manuel Lujan Exhibit Complex in Albuquerque is a versatile arena hosting concerts, rodeos, trade shows, and sporting events. Known for its spacious layout and modern amenities, understanding its seating chart ensures you get the best experience for any event.

Seating Chart Overview

Lower Bowl (Sections 100-200): Closest to the action, ideal for concerts and rodeos. Slight obstructions may occur near staging equipment.
Upper Bowl (Sections 300-400): Elevated views perfect for panoramic sightlines at trade shows or basketball games.
Floor Seating: Temporary setup for concerts—unbeatable proximity but limited elevation.
VIP/Suites: Mid-level luxury with private amenities, catering, and premium sightlines.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Concerts: Center Sections 100-200 (avoid extreme side angles).
• Rodeos: Sections near chutes (100-level corners) for cowboy action.
• Trade Shows: Upper bowl for unobstructed booth views.

Seat View Tips

Lower bowl rows 10-20 balance proximity and elevation. Avoid columns in 100-level rear rows. Upper bowl front rows (300s) offer surprisingly clear views.

VIP & Accessibility

• Luxury suites include lounge access and dedicated entrances.
• ADA seating available in all sections—request early for optimal placement.

Budget-Friendly Picks

Upper bowl center sections deliver value. For sold-out events, check last-minute floor releases.
