GAL FL at Auditorium Theatre

- Gallery Seating is the highest level at Auditorium Theatre in Chicago. With the level sitting above both the First Balcony and Upper Balcony, we highly discourage anyone with a fear of heights from choosing seats in these sections. Where to Sit in the Gallery  If possible, choose tickets in Row A or B. These rows sit below the rest of the level and are separated for a more comfortable and less crowded atmosphere. Not Glamorous, but in the Building  Ultimately, the Gallery isn't known for its glitz and glamour. The seats are not very comfortable, and the location is outdated, to say the least. However, there is a great deal of history behind the Auditorium Theatre and much of it can be appreciated from the Gallery seats. While we recommend sitting elsewhere, sometimes just being in the building for an event is good enough.
