Last Updated2026/2027 Concert Season

The best seats for a concert at Rogers Centre are much different than the best seats at a Jays game. With a flat floor and the stage at one end, where you sit shapes what you see more than you might expect.

Some fans want to be as close as they can get on the Field Seats, while others would rather settle into larger seats with club access at the Home Plate Terrace. In between are seats in the stands with a clear look over the floor, and spots that keep the price down. 

We weighed view, comfort, convenience and price across the building to find our top places to sit for a concert at Rogers Centre. Our picks are below.

Best Seats off the FloorSections 113–116 & 132–135, rows 16–31Sections 113–116 & 132–135, rows 16–31

Riser seating with a more comfortable angle to the stage. It's easier to see over taller people, fairly close to the stage and the concourse (food, drinks, restrooms) is steps away.

$400–$550 USD
Best on a BudgetSections 213–215, 233–235, 511–515 & more, rows 1–13Sections 213–215, 233–235, 511–515 & more, rows 1–13

Some of the lowest prices in the building, a side-on view of the production, and the first closer rows keep you closer to the stage and the concourse.

…close enough to the stage and screens that you can see what's going on at all times! Very cheap for the view…

Comfortable head-on views with larger seats, club access and access to amenities with shorter wait times.

…In this club area I had a seat, most fans sat down and I could easily jump back to the lounge for a break…

Seats to Avoid at Rogers Centre

Avoid Sections / AreasWhy You Should SkipPreferred Alternatives
Sections 110–113 & 135–138, rows 1–10

Fans have found it difficult to see over the floor from such a low perspective. A higher row in the same section is a better bet and usually cheaper.

…IMO if you want to see a concert, you should sit at least 10 rows up or more to get a good view of everything…

★★★★★A fan in Section 136, Row 2
Sections 109–113 & 135–140, rows vary by section $350–$550 USD
Sections 510–516, rows 20–37

These are the largest sections in the upper level. Getting to the top rows is a long walk, and once you're up there the atmosphere and sound aren't great.

…We were prepared for the restricted view but not the sound. Lyrics barely audible…

★★★★★A fan in Section 510, Row 24
Sections 522–526, 524B & 524A $120–$220 USD
Sections 508, 516–521, 527–532 & more

The highest, farthest seats from the stage, and often at an angle to it.

Tips For Floor Tickets and Choosing a Side

  • With the stage at the outfield end, the two sides of the bowl are mirror images. What differs is behind you: the 108 side has the Gate 3 elevator and the Jays Shop, and the 141 side has the Gate 13 elevator, first aid, Fan Services and the 100-level spot for ASL interpreters (request them 30 days ahead).
  • The floor is flat turf with no rise, so past the first blocks you watch over heads. In the 100-level sections next to the stage, the rows start at 21 or higher, so even the front row sees over the floor crowd.
  • When the floor is general admission, as it was for Metallica, Rufus Du Sol, Zach Bryan and the Backstreet Boys run, your spot depends on when you get in, and the venue doesn't allow lines before noon on show day. Pits and named floor areas are sold as their own tickets.
  • On a reserved floor, the blocks are lettered from the stage back (Field A, then B and C) and numbered across. The middle numbers of each letter face the stage straight on, and the low and high numbers at the edges see it at an angle.
  • Concerts here get loud, with strobes and sometimes pyro. Bring ear protection for kids (noise-cancelling headphones in kids' sizes are sold at the Jays Shop by section 110), and take breaks in the Sensory Room by 212 or the quiet areas in the Gate 3 elevator lobby on the 100 and 200 levels.

Questions About the Best Seats for a Concert

Is the floor general admission or reserved at Rogers Centre concerts?

Usually reserved. Most of the tours we mapped sold reserved floor seats in lettered blocks (Field A nearest the stage, then B and C), and a few of those added a standing pit up front. Some shows like Metallica, Rufus Du Sol, Zach Bryan and the Backstreet Boys run sold most of the floor as general admission.

Is a floor seat better than the lower level at a Rogers Centre concert?

Near the front, yes: the Field A blocks are the closest seats in the building. Farther back, the flat floor loses its edge. Our view ratings put the back blocks about level with the 100-level side sections next to the stage, which sit above the crowd, and the guides we read agree that a raised side seat beats the back of the floor. Those side sections typically run $350–$600 USD.

Do the 100-level seats face the stage at a Rogers Centre concert?

Not squarely. The 2024 rebuild angled the 100-level seats toward home plate, the opposite end from the stage, so in the side sections you'll sit turned toward the stage. The sections behind home plate face it head-on, but they're the farthest seats from it.

Where does a concert sound best at Rogers Centre?

Close to the stage and near the middle of the floor, between the speaker stacks. Audio experts and fans say the dome echoes, more so with the roof closed, and that the far upper-level seats get the muddiest sound. The roof can't move in cold weather, so winter shows are closed-roof.

Where should we sit with kids at a Rogers Centre concert?

Try the 200-level side sections near the stage, which typically run $260–$350 USD. They're 13 rows each, rated about as well as the 100-level side sections, and close to the Sensory Room and Fan Services (212), Fan Services (236), first aid and a multipurpose washroom (238) and the infant feeding room (240). Bring ear protection: the venue warns of high volume, strobes and pyro.

What do the stage and floor look like for my concert at Rogers Centre?

The next concert we’ve mapped here, Backstreet Boys, uses an end stage and mixes general admission and reserved floor sections.
