Best Value Tickets

Seats in Section B, Rows CC and DD at $56–$59 offer excellent value with good proximity to the stage and a reasonable price point. These seats are located in the lower sections, providing a close yet affordable view of the performance. The rows are slightly elevated, offering clear sightlines without the premium cost.

Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)

Section B, Rows BB and CC at approximately $58–$66 strike a balance between price and view. These seats are centrally located, offering a great perspective of the stage with moderate pricing. Rows BB and CC are close to the center, providing good visibility of the performers and stage setup.

Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)

Seats in Sections A and C, Rows AA and GG at around $66–$79 are higher tier options. These are closer to the stage, with Section A in the front rows (AA, BB) offering an even more immersive experience. However, prices are significantly higher, and the views are more direct and closer but at increased cost.

Premium or Last-Minute Tickets

Premium seats are located in Sections G, H, and GA FLOOR, Rows GA, G, and PIT GA, with prices ranging from $90 to over $165. These include front-of-stage areas, VIP, and pit sections offering the best views and proximity. Last-minute options tend to be in these premium sections and can go up in price quickly.

Seating Section & View Highlights

The Santa Barbara Bowl features a natural amphitheater with tiered sections. Central sections (A, B, C) provide balanced views with good sound and sightlines, especially Rows BB and CC. The front rows (AA, GG) are closer to the stage and offer direct views but at higher prices. Sections on the sides (E, F) are farther but still offer a decent experience, with some seats providing side-stage perspectives.

Recommendations for Your Purchase

• Opt for Section B, Rows CC or DD for the best overall value with good sightlines and cost efficiency.
• Choose central seats in Section A, Rows BB or CC for a premium experience without the highest prices.
• Consider Front of Stage or Pit GA sections if an up-close experience is desired and budget allows.
• Be aware that seats in Sections G, H, and GA FLOOR are premium and may sell out quickly, so plan accordingly.
• Seats behind or in the upper sections (Rows R, V, 10, 13) tend to be higher priced but offer unique elevated views.
• Section views vary: central sections face the stage directly, side sections may have angled views, and front rows provide an immersive experience but at a premium.
