MGM Grand Garden Arena

chart of the MGM Grand Garden Arena seating layout,

seating is arranged more specifically, with floor seating and VIP areas near the stage.

Below is a detailed explanation of each section:

1. Stage Location:

  • The stage is positioned at one end of the arena. The sections are laid out in a semi-circle around the stage to provide good sightlines from various vantage points.

2. Floor Sections:

  • VIP Pit / Entrance: This area is the closest to the stage, and is typically reserved for VIP ticket holders. It provides a premium, intimate concert experience right in front of the stage.
  • Sections A, B, C, D, F: These are floor seating sections directly behind or next to the VIP Pit. These sections offer reserved seating, providing the advantage of being seated while still remaining close to the stage.
    • Section A: Located at the center and closest to the stage, it is the prime seating area with the best views.
    • Sections B, D: Flank Section A on either side, still very close but slightly off-center.
    • Sections C, F: Located behind or beside Sections A, B, D, these sections are still part of the floor but are farther back.
  • Mix Area: Positioned in the middle of the floor seating area, this is typically reserved for sound and lighting equipment. No seating is available here.

3. Lower Bowl (100-Level Sections):

These sections surround the floor and offer tiered seating. They rise up from the floor level and provide a more elevated view of the stage.

  • Sections 1-24: These sections are closest to the floor, providing excellent views of the stage.
    • Sections 1-9: Located on the sides, these seats offer a great angle to see the stage.
    • Sections 10-14: These are central sections directly facing the stage, providing a head-on view of the performance.
    • Sections 15-18: These sections are on the sides but offer a slightly better view of the stage than the very side sections (1-9).
    • Sections 19-24: These sections are farther from the stage, but still offer a good view as they rise in elevation, particularly for larger events.

4. Upper Bowl (200-Level Sections):

These sections are higher up and further back, offering a more panoramic view of the entire stage and arena.

  • Sections 207-227: These sections form the upper tier of seating, rising above the lower bowl.
    • Sections 207-211 and 219-223: Located on the sides, these sections are elevated, providing a more comprehensive view but from a greater distance.
    • Sections 212-218: Positioned on the back and corners, these sections offer a more distant view, but some fans prefer these seats for a more all-encompassing perspective.
  • The middle-upper sections (212-218) are at the far end of the arena, opposite the stage, offering the most distant view, but often these sections are less expensive.

5. Premium / VIP Sections:

  • The VIP Pit and Floor Sections (A-F) are generally designated for premium ticket holders, offering exclusive seating or standing areas with the best proximity to the stage. These seats are often priced higher due to their location and access.

Choosing the Right Section:

  • For the best view: Floor sections A-F are ideal for close-up views, while Sections 10-14 offer great head-on views with a bit more elevation.
  • For a balanced experience: The lower bowl sections (1-24) offer good proximity to the stage while providing the comfort of being seated.
  • For budget-friendly seats: Upper bowl sections (207-227) are further from the stage but provide a full view of the arena and stage, making them suitable for those seeking a more affordable option.
