Best Value Tickets (Under $80)

• STAGE LEFT/STAGE RIGHT - Row A ($75): Closest seats to performers with unique angled views (may require some neck movement). Limited availability.
• Section 300s - Rows BB-EE ($78): Upper balcony with surprisingly good sightlines. Best value: Sections 302-303 offer centered views of the circular stage.
• STGR (Stage Rear) - Rows A-B ($78): Behind performers but excellent for seeing aerial acts and stage mechanics.

Sweet Spot Seats ($80-$125)

• STGL/STGR - Row A ($80-86): Front row side sections with immersive, slightly elevated perspective.
• Section 200s - Rows K-O ($111-125): Mid-level mezzanine with optimal viewing height. Section 202 Row M provides the perfect balance of price and view.
• Section 100s - Rows E-F ($125): Lower level side sections - closer but may have some viewing obstructions for ground-level acts.

Premium Viewing ($125-$200)

• Section 100s - Rows C-D ($170-227): Prime lower level seating with minimal obstructions. Section 104 Row C offers particularly good center-left views.
• Section 300s - Front Rows AA-CC ($133-161): First rows of upper balcony with unobstructed overhead views of aerial performances.
• VIP Packages ($170-240): Includes premium seating (VP1/VP2 rows) with possible perks like priority entry.

Ultimate VIP Experience ($240+)

• VIP Front Rows (VP1/VP2 - $240-384): Closest possible seats with direct performer interaction. Section 102-103 VP1 seats place you at the heart of the action.
• Section 100s - Center Rows C-D ($240-299): Unmatched sightlines for the full production. Section 103 Row D is our top recommendation for discerning viewers.

Viewing Recommendations

• For First-Timers: Section 202-203 rows L-M offer the best overall perspective to take in the entire production ($111-157).
• Budget-Conscious: Section 303 Row DD provides excellent value at just $78 with good elevation.
• Thrill-Seekers: STAGE LEFT/STAGE RIGHT rows A-C ($75-86) put you inches from the performers' entrance/exit paths.
• VIP Splurge: Section 103 Row VP1 delivers the ultimate Cirque experience with premium amenities ($384).

Important Viewing Notes

• The theater's circular stage means there are no truly "bad" seats, but side sections may miss some ground-level details.
• Upper balcony (300s) provides the best views of aerial acts, while lower levels excel for acrobatics and comedy.
• Rows AA in 300s sections are equivalent to front row balcony - no one in front of you.

• Multiple STAGE REAR (STGR) options at $78-86
• Last-minute VIP deals in Section 104 VP2 ($240-257)
