Grandstand 8

The beam in front of the first row creates some really difficult views in the seats near the right aisle in the lower rows. However, fans near the left aisle in the lower rows will have clear views of the infield, as well as those near the right aisle in the upper rows.

Grandstand Seats

Grandstand Seats at Fenway Park - especially on the infield - are the biggest gamble when it comes to obstructed seats. Even if you are not directly behind a support, you may encounter a pole when looking towards the pitcher's mound, second base or the outfield. If having an obstructed view will ruin your outing, it's usually not worth the time and energy figuring out if your seat is obstructed or not. We recommend avoiding the entire Grandstand and focusing your search on other areas of the ballpark with clear sitelines. So why sit in the Grandstand at all? There are two main reasons: First, the Grandstand seats demonstrate the charm of Fenway Park better than any other area. The overhang, the support poles and the old-timey seats are a throwback to baseball in the first half of the 20th century. Second, these Grandstand sections offer the best protection from the elements. Whether you're trying to stay dry on a rainy day - or cool on an August afternoon - the Grandstand has you covered, literally (Tip for families: to be closer to concessions and restrooms, choose sections 26-27 or 11-12). Additional Grandstand Notes Sections are usually organized into Grandstand Infield and Grandstand Outfield Grandstand sections 1-6 are covered but are still in the sun during late afternoon Grandstand sections on the third base side have better sitelines than those on the first base side

The view could not possibly have been any worse. The beam right in front of the seats was in terrible position, blocking any view of the batters box or home plate area. Had I been in seat 1 or 2, I could have seen some of home plate, although you'd be following the pitch through the beam as it mak...
"Right Next to the Monster"
(Grandstand 33) - ★★ -
If I leaned forward I could see home plate OK around the beam, but if I was just sitting back comfortably I couldn't see anything near the batters box. Seats 1 through 3 were even worse, so I felt really bad for the fans to my right. Seats 5 and higher have far superior views, but put you further ...
