On the Madison Square Garden seating chart, Balcony Seats are 300-Level seats at the ends of the arena. This includes sections 301-309 in the East Balcony and 317-323 in the West Balcony. These sections are located on the Chase Bridge level of MSG.
West Balcony vs. East Balcony Lounges
All Balcony sections include two rows of seats plus a row of barstools at the back. Guests will have a bird's eye view of the action from the top of the arena.
East Balcony seats are also known as The Lounges. These seats are larger than normal stadium seats and are over-sized with extra padding. Behind the seats is a hospitality area with food, additional seating and drinks available for purchase.
Lounge Seats are typically sold in group ticket packages, but are occasionally available to individual fans.

Seating and Ticket Q&A
How many seats per row in Section 305 at Madison Square Garden?
There are 10 seats in each row of Section 305 at MSG. Seat 1 is on your left as you look towards the ice. The seats are reported to be slightly wider and extra-padded for comfort, you can read more on these premium Eighteen76 Balcony Seats by visiting our Madison Square Garden Club Seating page.
Are the Lounges a good place to sit for a concert at MSG?
The Lounge Seats on the East side of the stadium (also called the eighteen76 Balcony) are probably the most comfortable seats at MSG. The seats are leather, padded and extra-wide. The sections are small with few rows and seats, so getting in and out isn't an issue (plus you get in-seat wait service). However, this all comes with being about a mile away from the action on the ice, court -- or in your case -- the stage. Since Billy Joel is playing on an end-stage setup, you will be more than 200 feet from the stage (though he will be head-on looking at you). The sound quality is a little diluted being that far away and you won't be able to see much detail on the stage. So it really comes down to comfort vs. view. If comfort is a higher priority, there aren't many better seats.
