This photo was zoomed x4 in my iphone 17 pm but this is actually close to what it looks like in person with your own eyes. Pretty good for the price but definitely you'll be watching through your phone most of the time to make out facial details.

The View is pretty good for the price but You can't make out facial features of those on stage from this distance. Also if you're someone who uses the bathroom a lot I'd advice against doing balcony as you'll have to keep using 3 flights of stairs.
pretty good! if theres no one blocking your vision you have a really good view of the stage even if it is a little farther back! because of the size of this venue most seats are really good
Great for what I paid for it! Be warned the floors under the seats are at an angle so be careful when walking to your seat.

there is a bar but if you lean forward in your seat/are tall you should be good. I don't remember the settings but max zoom I use is 3x so it's that or less
There is only one row in front of you, so as long as those people are not tall, then you should be alright. Really nice view of the stage, and closer than it appears.
great seats! taken with regular camera settings, no zoom!

the seat was so good but the guy in front of me to the right kinda blocked my view since he was SO tall (and im 5'7) so if youre short you might wanna wear tall shoes
It's the furthest row but I was able to see both screens and the stage perfectly. Center view with no blockers. Perfect for anyone who likes to film concerts without blocking others!

No zoom, iPhone SE. Photo for performer scaling, for more details go to other post.
No Zoom, iPhone SE. $111 each for 2 tickets. Good view, harder to see when people stand.
Great with nothing in between you and the stage. Aisle so if artist walks down, you get a great close up.
It has a great view and you are able to interact with them, the best time in my life.

Stage is easy to see if everyone sits down. Most people stood up at this concert so watching the view screen was better.

Great overall view of the stage, rows are pretty narrow w/o cupholders. Floor is only slightly raked (pretty flat)
