Cirque du Soleil at New York-New York Theater - Best Seats & Deals

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

Discover the best seats for Cirque du Soleil's spectacular shows at New York-New York Theater in Las Vegas. Our venue experts break down every section to help you find perfect tickets for "Mad Apple" and other Cirque productions, whether you're looking for budget-friendly options, premium VIP experiences, or the best value seats.

Best Value Tickets (Under $80)

• STGL/STGR Rows A-C ($75-$82): Front side stage seats with unique angled views of performers - great for seeing acrobatics up close though some staging may be obscured.
• 300 Level Rows AA-FF ($78): Elevated but surprisingly good sightlines in center sections (303-305). Rows AA-DD offer the best balance of price and view in this tier.

Sweet Spot Seats ($111-$157)

• 200 Level Center (Rows K-M): Sections 202-204 provide optimal viewing height for appreciating the full stage picture and aerial acts. Row L is particularly well-positioned.
• 300 Level Front Rows ($111): Sections 301-305 Rows AA-BB offer significant savings over comparable 200-level seats with only slightly more distant views.

Higher Tier Options ($170-$227)

• 100 Level Rear ($170-$189): Sections 101/104 Rows E-G - closer but with more obstructed views of overhead elements than 200-level seats.
• 200 Level Premium ($176-$227): Front 200-level seats (Rows H-K) in center sections - excellent sightlines but priced at premium for their location.

VIP & Premium Seats ($240-$384)

• VIP Sections ($240-$384): Front 100-level rows (VP1/VP2) and box seats - include premium amenities and unbeatable proximity to the stage.
• 100 Level Center Rows C-D ($257-$299): The classic "best seats in the house" with perfect elevation and central views of all performance areas.

View Comparison

• Stage-Level Seats: STGL/STGR offer immersive, close-up perspectives but may require some neck craning for aerial acts.
• 100 Level: Intimate but can have obstructed views of high-flying elements - best for seeing floor performances.
• 200 Level: The "Goldilocks zone" - high enough to see all action clearly while still feeling connected to performers.
• 300 Level: Surprisingly good full-stage views, especially in center sections - best budget choice for first-time viewers.

Our Top Recommendations

• Best Overall Value: 300 Level Center Sections (303-305) Rows AA-CC ($111) - 85% of the view for 60% of premium seat prices.
• Premium Pick: 200 Level Center (Section 202 Row L $125) - Perfect elevation with no viewing compromises.
• Budget Choice: STGL/STGR Rows A-C ($75) - Unique perspective at lowest price point.
• Splurge-Worthy: 100 Level VIP (VP1/VP2 $240+) - Ultimate Cirque experience with premium amenities.

Special Notes for Cirque du Soleil Shows

The theater's in-the-round configuration means there are no truly bad seats, but sections do offer different experiences. "Mad Apple" incorporates more front-stage comedy and audience interaction, making closer seats particularly engaging for this production.
