• Platform1 vs. Platform2: Mirror-image sections—Platform1 is stage-left, Platform2 is stage-right. Equal views but Platform2 often sells faster.
• Carriage Seating: Rows EE (mid-balcony) avoid over-angle, while DD rows (front-balcony) offer the most immersive overhead perspective.

• For Groups (8+): Snag Trackside GG rows at $82—the quantity available makes them perfect for parties.
• Best Overall Value: Locomotive Row U ($140) balances price and central positioning.
• Premium Experience: Platform Row B ($322) puts you in the heart of the action with cast interactions.
• Last-Minute Deal Tip: Check Carriage EE rows ($247) closer to the date—they often release held production seats.

Pro Tip: Wembley Park Theatre's in-the-round design means every seat has clear sightlines, but prioritize sections based on whether you want "track-level intensity" (Trackside) or "aerial spectacle" (Carriage/Platform).
