Best Value Tickets
Lawn tickets in Row GA at $28 offer the most affordable access, providing a broad view of the entire Pavilion and the orchestra. These seats are ideal for budget-conscious attendees who want to enjoy the live performance from a general admission area with a vibrant, energetic atmosphere.
Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)
Sections in the $92 to $136 range, such as Row GA and nearby sections, provide a balance of good views with more structured seating. These seats are closer to the stage, offering clear sightlines to the performers and a more comfortable experience without the premium price of premium sections.
Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)
Seats in sections like Lower Pavilion Left/Right (rows X at $283), or Rear Pavilions (rows LL at $299), are higher tier. They offer a more intimate view of the stage, but at a significantly increased cost. These are suitable for those seeking a closer, more exclusive experience.
Premium or Last-Minute Tickets
Premium seats in Pavilion Rows W and R at prices around $436 to $530, or the Pavilion CTR at $839, provide the best views, proximity to the stage, and premium experience. Last-minute options, often in the same sections, are available at these higher prices, ideal for special occasions or VIP experiences.
Seating Sections & Views
- Lawn GA: Open, energetic environment with a wide view, best for casual attendees and budget-conscious fans.
- Lower Pavilion (Rows X, W, R): Closer to the stage with direct sightlines, offering an immersive experience.
- Rear Pavilions (Rows LL): Slightly elevated, providing a good overall view from the back with a premium feel.
- Premium Sections (Rows W, R, CTR): Front-center seats with the best stage visibility, ideal for a premium experience.
Differences in Rows & Sections
Rows closer to the stage (W, R) in Pavilion sections offer better visibility of the performers and more direct sightlines. The back rows (LL) and lawn sections provide a broader perspective but less intimacy. Elevation in rear sections enhances overall viewing angles, making them a popular choice for balanced value and view.
Recommendations
- For the best value: Purchase Lawn GA tickets at $28 for a lively, unobstructed experience.
- For a good balance of view and price: Consider Pavilion Rows W or R around $436 - $530, providing close proximity and excellent sightlines.
- For the ultimate experience: Opt for Pavilion CTR seats at $839 for premium, front-and-center views.
- To maximize your experience: Choose seats in Sections W or R for a near-stage view, or in the rear for a more relaxed, panoramic perspective.
