Discover the Best Seats for Unforgettable Performances

The Sandler Center for the Performing Arts in Virginia Beach is a premier venue hosting Broadway shows, concerts, ballets, and more. With its intimate design and superb acoustics, every seat offers a unique experience. This guide breaks down the seating chart, highlights the best sections, and helps you choose the perfect spot for your next event.

Seating Chart Overview

✅ Orchestra Level (Floor): Closest to the stage, offering unobstructed views. Front rows (A–D) are ideal for immersive experiences, while mid-orchestra (E–J) balances proximity and elevation. Avoid far sides (Sections 1/5) for skewed sightlines.

⚠️ Tiered Balcony (Mezzanine & Grand Tier): Elevated views perfect for large-scale performances. Mezzanine (Rows A–D) provides a panoramic perspective, while Grand Tier (Rows E–F) may feel distant for intimate shows.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Concerts: Center Orchestra (Rows E–J) for balanced sound and sightlines.
• Theater/Broadway: Front Mezzanine (Rows A–B) for full-stage visibility.
