TicketHold | North Dakota State Fairgrounds Seating Chart & Seat Views Guide

Your Ultimate Guide to the Best Seats at North Dakota State Fairgrounds

The North Dakota State Fairgrounds is a premier venue for concerts, rodeos, and fairs, offering diverse seating options. This guide breaks down the seating chart, highlights the best views, and helps you choose the perfect spot for any event.

Seating Chart Overview

Grandstand: Central seating with unobstructed views—ideal for concerts and rodeos. Lower rows (Sections A-C) offer proximity, while upper rows (D-F) provide a broader perspective.

Bleachers: Budget-friendly with elevated views, but limited legroom. Best for festivals and motorsports.

Track-Side: Exclusive front-row access for rodeos, though sightlines may vary due to barriers.

Best Seats by Event

  • Concerts: Center Grandstand (Sections B-D) for balanced sound and sightlines.
  • Rodeos: Sections A-B or Track-Side for close-up action.
  • Fairs: Bleachers for a panoramic view of performances.

Seat Views & Obstructions

Grandstand seats avoid obstructions, while extreme side bleachers may have partial stage blind spots. Check venue maps for pillars or equipment blocks.

VIP & Accessibility

  • VIP Suites: Private boxes with catering—perfect for groups.
  • Accessibility: Designated wheelchair areas in Grandstand (Sections A and E).

Pro Tips

  • Use TicketHold’s interactive map to preview your view.
  • For rodeos, avoid seats directly behind chutes.
  • Arrive early for bleacher seats—first-come, first-served.
