Section 221 at PPG Paints Arena

- If you're looking for a traditional center ice view, but are working with a budget when searching for tickets, the Upper Level Center where you'll want to be. While further from the ice on the upper seating tier, fans have clear unobstructed views to both nets, allowing you to following the action no matter what. If you have the option, we recommend going with Sections 218-221 as these seats will have a head on view of the players and coaches on the team benches. Sections here have up to 15 lettered rows of seating, with entry tunnels located at the very top (leaving the longest walks for fans closest to the front near Row A). 

- With just two small tiers of seating between the upper and lower levels, upper level concert seats at Consol Energy Center are much better than at most hockey venues. The front row seats have a very similar view to the back rows in the 100 level. In the side sections, 201 and 221 provide fabulous views of the stage. Rows run A-Q in these sections. While Row A will give you the best view, Row Q will have you closer to concessions and restrooms since the concourse tunnel is at the top. 

- The lower rows of the upper level seats are center court are among the best values at Consol Energy Center for basketball games. Typically, these seats are priced similarly to lower level corner seats which have a much worse view. If you're more interested in following the action on the court, and don't care so much about being close to the action, these seats are an ideal fit. Each section has 15 rows of lettered seating, with Row A being the front row and the last row being closest to the concourse.
