Best Seats For a Concert at Crypto.com Arena

The most common seating layout at Crypto.com Arena for concerts is an end-stage setup with the stage located near sections Premier 1, Premier 2 and Premier 17. For many concerts there are also slight variations to the layout, which may include General Admission seats, fan pits and B-stages.

Floor seats - like those in Floor 5 - are among the most sought-after tickets

On the Floor: Sections Floor 1, Floor 2, Floor 3 and Floor 4 are Floor Seats, which offer some of the closest views of the performers. For many concerts, floor sections are added or removed. These performer-specific adjustments may alter the floor layout and the views from each floor section.

To the Side of the Stage: For close views of the stage with a little bit of elevation, consider seats to the side of the stage in Section 112, Section 113 and Section 118. The view is not head-on like on the floor, but many of the seats are closer to the stage, provide better elevation and are actual stadium seats.

Section 106 offers a comfortable head-on view for end-stage shows

Head-on to the Stage: Seats directly across from the stage, like those in Section 106, Section 107, Section 207 and Section 208 provide the most comfortable looks of the performance.

Even upper level sections offer unobstructed sitelines. Just keep in mind that you won't be able to see as much detail from these seats as you would if you sat closer to the stage.

Consider the Following When Buying Concert Tickets

Seats behind the stage are occassionally sold: Unless your main objective is to just get in the building, you'll want to completely avoid anything behind the stage - like those in/near or above sections Premier 1, Premier 2, Premier 17 and Premier 18. It's unlikely the performer will turn around to salute you - and you're more likely to be completely blocked out from seeing the show.

If you're on the shorter side (or bringing kids), consider floor seats only in the first few rows: The most common complaint amongst floor ticketholders is that they can't see the stage because of taller people in front of them. As an alternative, consider side sections near the stage that will still have you close and high enough to see.

Lower level side sections are not created equal: While the side sections closest to the stage are top-notch, side sections farther from the stage may leave you with a cramp in your neck. Sections Premier 6 and Premier 13 are not well-angled towards the stage - leaving you to turn your head for an ideal view. Instead, consider head-on sections in the lower level or even close side seats in the upper level like 320 and 333.

    Venue & Seating Questions

    • What does Standing Room Only mean?

      Standing Room Only means that you will not be assigned a specific seat. You will be assigned a specific area in the back of a section (usually behind the last row of the upper level). You will have to stand during the game and may have to stand behind other patrons towards the ice.

      View from 300 Level at Staples Center
      This is a view from the 300 Level at the Staples Center, standing room only views will be similar to this but a little farther from the ice.
    • What are wheelchair only seats at Staples Center?

      Accessible seating is available on all levels of the Staples Center. Fans buying tickets from the box office should specifically request accessible seating and inquire about any other special needs assistance (e.g.: parking).

      For a complete list of policies and FAQs, please visit the Staples Center Disabled Services page.

    • Do the premiere seats offer any perks for concerts at Staples Center?

      Per our discussions with the staff at the Staples Center, the San Manuel Club is closed for concerts (normally a perk of premiere seats), and they unfortunately do not offer in-seat wait service for concerts either. However the Premiere seating will still have a few benefits in the form of padded seats and private entrance to the venue.

      Premiere Seating at Staples Center
      Premiere seating sections will not include in-seat service or lounge access for most concerts, but fans will benefit from the wider, more comfortable seating
    • Where is the best place to sit at Staples Center for a concert?

      The set-up for this concert is end-stage, meaning that the stage will be in front of sections 115-116. For nearly all concerts with this set-up, we recommend the seating in the sections directly across the court. This gives you a great head-on view and permanent seating (as opposed to floor seating which is not as comfortable). Thus, sections 106-107 are your best bet. For an even better experience, seats near rows 17-20 are closest to the tunnel so you can get to the concourse easily.
