State Theatre - MN | Purple Rain - The Musical Seating Guide & Ticket Recommendations
Best Value Tickets (Price + View Balance)
- MF1 Section, Rows FF-GG ($177-$235): Excellent orchestra-level seats with direct stage sightlines. FF row offers better value at $177, while GG provides slightly closer view for $58 more.
- MAIN FLOOR 1, Row EE ($193): Center orchestra position - premium viewing angle at mid-range price. Only 2 tickets available.
Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)
- MF3 Section, Row JJ ($208): Rear orchestra with elevated view (helps visibility for shorter attendees). Good option for groups with 2 tickets available.
- BALC 7-8, Row S ($329): First row of balcony - unobstructed overhead perspective. Best balcony value with 6 tickets per section.
Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)
- FLR 3-4, Row HH ($403): Side orchestra sections - partially angled views. Priced higher than better-positioned MF1 seats.
- BALC 5-6, Row S ($354): Identical view to BALC 7-8 but $25 more expensive - only choose if others sell out.
Premium or Last-Minute Options
- MF4, Row D ($364): Ultra-close "on stage" experience - immersive but extreme viewing angle. For true Prince fans wanting intimate feel.
- FLR 2, Row HH ($551): Premium side section pricing doesn't match value - only consider for last-minute purchases.
View Difference Highlights
- Orchestra (MF sections): MF1 has straight-on views while MF3/MF4 get progressively more angled. Row letters go from A (front) to JJ (rear).
- Balcony (BALC sections): All Row S seats are front balcony. Sections 5-8 are center, with 7-8 being the best value at $329.
- Floor vs Balcony: Orchestra seats feel the energy but balcony provides better overall perspective of choreography and lighting.
Our Top Recommendations
- For Budget-Conscious Buyers: MF1 Row FF at $177 (best price for solid orchestra seats)
- For Small Groups (2 people): MAIN FLOOR 1 Row EE at $193 (center orchestra perfection)
- For Larger Groups (6+): BALC 7-8 Row S at $329 (best group value with great views)
- For Ultimate Fans: MF4 Row D at $364 (if you want to feel part of the performance)
Pro Tip: The State Theatre's sloped orchestra means even rear MF seats (like JJ) have good sightlines over heads. Balcony Row S feels closer than typical first-balcony rows in other theaters.
