Discover the Best Seats at Raleigh’s Premier Performing Arts Venue

The Meymandi Concert Hall, part of the Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts, is Raleigh’s crown jewel for symphonies, ballets, and live performances. Known for its pristine acoustics and elegant design, this 1,700-seat venue offers a range of seating options to suit every preference. Below, we break down the seating chart, highlight optimal sections, and provide tips for choosing your perfect seat.

Seating Chart Overview

Orchestra Level (Floor): Closest to the stage, offering unobstructed views—ideal for orchestral performances. Rows A–G provide intimacy, while rear rows (H–P) balance proximity and affordability.

Terrace Level (Lower Balcony): Elevated for a panoramic view, with excellent acoustics. Center sections (T1–T3) are prime for visual clarity, while side terraces may have slight angle limitations.

Gallery Level (Upper Balcony): Budget-friendly with steep elevation. Front rows (G1–G3) deliver surprising clarity, but rear rows may feel distant for detail-heavy performances.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Symphonies: Orchestra center (Rows D–H) or Terrace center for balanced sound.
• Theater/Dance: Terrace front rows (T1–T3) for full-stage visibility.
• Lectures: Gallery front (G1–G3) for cost-effective clarity.

Seat View Tips

• Avoid extreme side Orchestra seats—partial obstructions may occur.
• Terrace side boxes offer unique angles but require slight head turns.
• Gallery rear rows use binoculars for soloist details.

VIP & Accessibility

The hall features donor boxes with lounge access and ADA-compliant seating in Orchestra rear and Terrace levels. Wheelchair spaces are paired with companion seats—book early for optimal placement.

Pro Tip

For budget-conscious buyers, mid-Terrace seats often outperform front Orchestra in value. Check the venue’s virtual tour for 360° views before purchasing.
