• Section 102 Rows A-F: $171-$286 - Center orchestra with the most balanced views of both ground and aerial performances.

• Section 203 Row AA: $388-$396 - Ultra-premium front center balcony with panoramic views of all performance areas.

View Comparison Guide

• Orchestra (Sections 101-103): Best for seeing detailed choreography and floor projections. Higher rows (M-P) offer better perspective for aerial acts.
• Front Balcony (Rows AA-EE): Ideal for appreciating the full scope of acrobatics while still seeing facial expressions.
• Rear Balcony (Rows QQ-RR): Best budget option with full-stage views, though distant from performers.
• Side Sections (201/205): Unique angled perspectives but may have slight obstructions during certain sequences.

Pro Tips for Your Purchase

• For groups of 4+, consider Section 203 Row NN ($118) - excellent availability and central views
• Mid-week shows often have better pricing for equivalent seats
• Avoid extreme side seats (Section 201/205 Rows A-C) for first-time viewers
• Check for last-minute deals on premium seats 24-48 hours before showtime

The Michael Jackson ONE Experience

This theater was custom-designed for this production, with 180-degree seating ensuring good views from most locations. The show utilizes the entire space - including aerial performances above the audience - so higher seats often provide more complete perspectives of the spectacle.
