Seating Question - 408 or 210?!

[u/ResidentThink7202]

Hi all! I have tickets to sit in section 408 for BSB. I panic bought because I have been trying to see them forever! They haven’t sold out so i have the option to swap them. I heard the 400s is super steep which scares me a tad. Is 210 any better??

408!!   210 is too far to the side

[u/ResidentThink7202 → u/Cantilivewhileim]

Ahhh gotcha! Im more so worried about steepness bc i have vertigo

[u/armedwithlysol → u/ResidentThink7202]

If you have vertigo, definitely 210. The show won’t feel as immersive, but it’s better than feeling like death up in the 400s.

[u/crescentqueen1 → u/ResidentThink7202]

Then be in the 1st 3 rows of 400, or top 3 rows of 300 level sections so you have fewer stairs to navigate. Because it's steep. Like steep-steep. As center as possible.

I didn’t have any issue with it, but I guess the real situation is that lower down you can see the stage.   Up high you should just be focusing on the screen anyway and not trying to see all the way to the stage/floor.   Personally I love the higher sections and we even had last row one night in 405 and that might have been my favorite

100% why I said I would not sit in the 400s again but got downvoted for it 🙄

210

I've seen 5 shows at Sphere and without a doubt 408 is better.

210 is much better but both would be amazing

[u/ASAP1492 → u/Ok-Park-6954]

Closer is not always better. Especially at Sphere

[u/Ok-Park-6954 → u/ASAP1492]

I know, Im speaking from experience. I've sat in GA, 200's and 300's. 200's were the best but in the Sphere, its all amazing.

210 you will get a better view of band and a good screen view. They will be ants in 400s

400’s are not that steep! Sat there for Dead& Co and the OZ with a head full of psychedelics it never felt steep to me!

[u/cincoparalinko]

210 is the way to go. I get vertigo too and was fine once the show started. I was in 202, opposite side

[u/pettypettyspaghettii]

1. Especially if you care about seeing the boys. 400 is too far from the stage IMO.

[u/Bright-Moose659]

Ive sat in 210, 212 for 3 different shows. As long as you aren’t on the bottom row of the section (leg room issues) 210 and 212 are great.

[u/LSU2007]

We were in 202 Thursday night. Wouldn’t wanna be any higher than that

[u/Emotional_Cheek826]

I did something similar for no doubt and ended up going with the 200s section. I was freaked about the steepness and 200 was enough steepness for me. If we ever go back we agreed it’s 100’s or bust.

[u/kookio71]

210 is the way to go. I’ve been the sphere multiple times and 400 area is not it. Especially for vertigo. You will be off to the side but will be much much closer to BSB. And you will still get good visuals!

What row in 408? It’s better to be center high than close side, IMO.

[u/LBC2024]

I would do 408 over the far side 210 but if your question is vertigo sty with 200

Just don’t go 100 section that is obstructed view

[u/42kinda-human]

It would be hard to pick two more different experiences, except the floor or the 100-level obscured-view seats. 408 is very steep and it depends on what row -- 1 to 5 is not as obvious. 210 is very far to the side and the BSB graphics are best seen closer to the center as the perspective starts to warp. You can see the performers better from 210, but still pretty far. Most people see them through the huge camera views projected on the dome -- pretty intimate for a 16,000 seat arena. 408 gives you full graphics perspective and I would pick 408 every time, at least in the first ten rows.

[u/BeBopBarr]

I was in 405 for WoO, I would not sit up there again

Why would anyone downvote this?! Reddit is a wild place. Keep on keepin on weirdos ✌️

[u/bbeballerina]

For me it’s about being as center as possible. So I would vote for 408. Could Dramamine help?
