(2026 Review) - Where You'll Sit: Club and suite levels at the South end of Benchmark International Arena, spanning Levels 4 and 5.  Sections Included: Mark Club sections 1–8 (Level 4) and 9–18 (Level 5).  All-Inclusive Food & Drink (Lightning Games): Upscale all-inclusive buffet with beer, wine, mixed drinks and soda throughout the game.  Standout Perk: Access to the Diamond Crown Cigar Lounge and a private club entrance that opens 90 minutes before puck drop.  Concert Caveat: Rarely available for concerts, since these seats sit behind the stage for most shows.  Who Should Sit Here  The Mark Club at Benchmark International Arena is built for Lightning fans who want a premium, all-inclusive night out. It's a strong fit for date nights, client outings, or anyone who'd rather relax with a full buffet and open bar than wait in concourse lines. If you value comfort and service as much as the game itself, this is the zone for you.  The Mark Club Seating Details  The Mark Club is located on the club and suite levels at the South end of the arena. Sections 1–8 sit on Level 4, while sections 9–18 sit on Level 5. Lower sections 1–8 feature up to 9 rows of seating, while the upper sections 9–18 are smaller at roughly 4 rows deep. Fans also receive access to the Club Lounge on their floor and enter through a private club entrance off Publix Plaza at the west end of the arena, which opens 90 minutes prior to puck drop.  Views from The Mark Club  For Lightning games, these are some of the best seats in the arena, positioned at the South end. The lower sections 1–8 put you closer to the ice, while the upper sections 9–18 sit a level higher for a slightly elevated angle. Note that for most concerts these sections are behind the stage, which is why Mark Club tickets are rarely available for shows.  What's Included  Upscale all-inclusive buffet with a salad bar, appetizers and sandwiches  Beer, wine, mixed drinks and soda throughout the game  Diamond Crown Cigar Lounge  Private, upscale restrooms  Private Tampa Bay Club level access  Premium club entrance directly off Publix Plaza  Good to Know  The private club entrance opens 90 minutes before puck drop, so arrive early to enjoy the buffet and lounges before the action starts. If you want to be closer to the ice, aim for the lower sections 1–8; for a higher vantage point, the upper sections 9–18 run about 4 rows deep.  Disclaimer: All-inclusive food and beverage applies to Tampa Bay Lightning home games. Amenities may vary for concerts and other events, and these seats are typically behind the stage. Confirm what's included for your specific event before purchasing.
