Expert Guide to Cirque du Soleil Seating at New York-New York Theater

Experience the magic of Cirque du Soleil's "Mad Apple" in Las Vegas with our complete seating guide. Below you'll find detailed recommendations for every budget, from best-value seats to premium VIP options, along with exact view descriptions for key sections at this unique theater-in-the-round venue.

Best Value Tickets ($75-$86)

• STGR/STGL Rows A-C: Front side-stage seating with slightly angled views. You'll be close to aerial acts but may miss some center-stage details. Best for budget-conscious fans wanting proximity.
• Section 200s Rows M-O: Elevated rear mezzanine with full-stage panorama. Excellent value for seeing all acts simultaneously, though farther from performers.

Sweet Spot Seats ($111-$143)

• Section 300s Rows AA-CC: Front mezzanine with perfect sightlines to all performance areas. The 300s center sections (302-304) offer the ideal balance of price and view quality.
• Section 200s Rows K-M: Closer side mezzanine with immersive perspectives. Particularly good for the acrobatic sequences where performers extend toward these sections.

Higher Tier Options ($147-$189)

• Section 100s Rows E-G: Main floor seating with excellent elevation. Avoid extreme sides (101/104) for comedy segments which focus center-stage.
• VIP Rows (VP1/VP2): Includes priority entry but limited legroom. Best for guests wanting floor access without premium pricing.

Premium & Last-Minute Seats ($192-$384)

• Section 100s Rows C-D: Ultra-close to the circular stage with potential performer interaction during crowd segments.
• VIP Box Seats (VP1): Private experience with drink service and best sightlines for aerial acts. Rows AA in 300s offer similar views at lower cost.

View Comparison Key

• STAGE LEFT/RIGHT: Intimate but may require neck turning. 70° stage view.
• 100s Center (102-103): 180° unobstructed views with ideal performer facial expressions visibility.
• 200s Front (Rows H-K): 120° views that capture both floor and aerial acts simultaneously.
