Below you'll find detailed recommendations for every budget, from best-value seats to premium VIP options, with clear explanations of view quality for each section at this unique theater-in-the-round venue.

Best Value Tickets (Under $80)

• STAGE RIGHT/LEFT Row A ($75): Front row side sections with slightly angled views - performers often interact directly with these seats.
• Section 300-Level Rows BB-FF ($78): Elevated views looking down at the circular stage - great for seeing aerial acts. Rows BB are closer with better angles than EE/FF.
• Section 200-Level Rows L-O ($78): Mid-level side views - avoid extreme side seats in 202/204 which may have obstructed sightlines.

Sweet Spot Seats ($80-$130)

• Section 300-Level Rows AA-CC ($111-$133): Front of upper level - Row AA provides unobstructed overhead views ideal for the acrobatic sequences.
• Section 100-Level Rows E-F ($125): First elevated tier - excellent sightlines over floor seats with comfortable viewing angle.

Higher Tier Options ($130-$180)

• Section 100-Level Rows C-D ($170-$183): Closest elevated seats - VP1/VP2 are VIP boxes with extra legroom and cocktail service.
• Section 200-Level Rows H-K ($147-$176): Prime orchestra locations - center sections 202/203 offer the most balanced views.
• 300-Level Front Center ($161): Sections 302-305 Rows AA-CC - best upper level seats with head-on perspective of all acts.

Premium & Last-Minute Seats ($180+)

Special Notes for Cirque du Soleil - Mad Apple

This contemporary cabaret-style show features more audience interaction than traditional Cirque productions. Seats in STAGE RIGHT/LEFT and front 100-Level sections may include direct performer engagement. The theater's circular design means there are no truly "bad" seats, but extreme side sections may miss some visual projections on the ceiling.
