Seating Sections
Floor Sections (1-10)
Closest to the action. For boxing, floor sections include ringside and near-ring seating — the most prestigious (and expensive) tickets in Vegas. For concerts, floor sections face the stage directly. Configuration varies by event.
Lower Bowl (101-120)
Elevated views with excellent sightlines. Center sections (105-110, 115-120) offer the best perspective for all event types. These are the sweet spot for value and view quality.
Upper Bowl (201-220)
The arena's intimate size means even upper-level seats are closer than you'd expect. Center sections maintain good views, though end sections can feel distant for boxing.
VIP Suites
Private luxury suites with catering, dedicated entrances, and premium views. Available for all major events at the arena.
