Venue:
Seating:
The Tabernacle hosts a lot of major shows, and tickets generally sell quickly. As with any venue, good seats are available, but Live Nation’s Premium Seating reserves the best second balcony tickets for, you guessed it, a premium price. They roughly set aside the first two to three rows from Sections 206 around to 205.
Anywhere in the 200’s is a good seat. The 300’s are good within the first several rows, but you’re sightlines are definitely looking down at the stage beyond that point. The 400’s… you can say you were there, and you can say that you saw the show. But you’re as likely to opt to stand on the floor at least part of the time with the General Admission ticket holders to more truly “feel” the experience. Sound on the balconies directly opposite the stage can be a little wonky as well, particularly in the depths of the 300 and 400 center sections. Even on the floor under the 200 section, the sound gets flattened. A few steps forward makes a startling difference.
