TicketHold | OVO Hydro Seating Chart & Seat Views – Best Seats for Concerts & Events

Your Ultimate Guide to the OVO Hydro Arena Layout

The OVO Hydro in Glasgow is Scotland’s premier entertainment venue, hosting world-class concerts, sports, and live events. With a capacity of 14,300, its innovative design ensures an immersive experience from every angle. Here’s how to navigate its seating chart for the best views.

OVO Hydro Seating Chart Breakdown

  • Floor Seating: Unbeatable proximity for concerts (standing or seated), but avoid rear rows for obstructed views.
  • Lower Tier (Sections 001-025): Elevated perspective with clear sightlines—ideal for balanced budget/visibility.
  • Upper Tier (Sections 201-232): Budget-friendly with steep angles; center sections minimize distortion.

Best Seats by Event Type

  • Concerts: Floor (rows 1-10) or Lower Tier center (Sections 011-015).
  • Sports: Lower Tier sides (Sections 005-008, 018-021) for optimal court/ice visibility.
  • Family Shows: Upper Tier front rows (avoid back rows due to height).

Seat View Tips

  • Obstructions: Check for production rigging in Sections 201-208 during concerts.
  • VIP Suites: Mid-level luxury with private catering; book early for premium events.
  • Accessibility: Dedicated platforms in Sections 023/024 and 231/232 with companion seats.

Pro Tips for Choosing Seats

  • Use 3D venue maps to preview sightlines.
  • Prioritize center sections over side angles for performances.
  • For budget tickets, Upper Tier rows A-F offer the best value.
