Upper Level
-The Upper Level at MVP Arena is also known as the Upper Deck and includes all 200 Level sections. These elevated seats offer good views - especially from the lower rows - and cheaper ticket prices than the Lower Level. Side Sections vs. Corner and End The best Upper Level seats are along the side. This is true for both basketball games and concerts. Sections 207 and 209 are directly at the center of the venue and provide quality views for concerts and excellent views for basketball. There are 20 rows in most Upper Level sections with an entrance at the front. If walking up and down stairs is difficult for you, we recommend sacrificing a great view along the side for a lower row in the corner or at and end. The staircase begins at Row 1 so sitting closer to the front means fewer steps. Our favorite budget seats in the Upper Level are at the front of corner sections. These seats have a good angle towards the floor, don't require too many stairs and there are rarely more than 8 seats per row. This makes them some of the most accessible seats in the venue.
