Seat view simulator: see the view before you buy
Pick a venue, pick a section, and SeatView 3D flies you to that seat. Check the angle, the distance and whether the section sits behind the stage — before you spend a dollar on tickets.

Why check the view first?
Photos have gaps
Fan-photo sites are great when your exact section and row exist — and useless when they don't. A simulation covers every section, every time, including the ones nobody has photographed.
Stage setup changes everything
The same seat can be a bargain for a center-stage 360° show and a write-off for an end-stage show. Toggle the stage setup above and watch whole sections change rating.
Behind-stage seats are a real risk
Sections behind an end stage are sometimes sold cheap — and sometimes barely see the show. We flag them as Obstructed-risk in the simulator instead of letting you find out at the arena.

Frequently asked questions
Is the seat view a real photo?
No. Every view on SeatView 3D is a simulation — a 3D approximation built from the arena layout to help you compare sections before you buy. It is not a photograph and no view is guaranteed to match the exact production setup of a specific event.
How does the seat view simulator work?
Pick a venue, pick a stage setup (end stage or center stage), then click any section. The simulator flies the camera to a seat in that section and looks toward the stage, and shows the estimated distance, a view rating and notes about the angle.
Which venues are covered?
Madison Square Garden in New York, Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles and United Center in Chicago at launch, each with every bowl section and floor block modelled approximately from its published seating chart. More venues are planned.
How accurate is the distance?
Distances are estimates scaled from the arena bowl dimensions, meant for comparing sections against each other — not for surveying. Treat a few metres either way as normal.
