The quick read on CFG Bank Arena seats
On the CFG Bank Arena seating chart, the arena's own maps draw the concert stage at the south end, against the parking garage, with the seats wrapping around the other three sides. The lower bowl runs from section 101 beside the stage on the west side, north along the west side to the far end (109–116), and back down the east side to 124 beside the stage. The upper bowl repeats that path from 201 to 220. The centers of the long sides are 104 (west) and 121 (east) downstairs and 204 and 217 upstairs; the center of the far end, facing the stage, is between 112 and 113, and between 210 and 211 above. For a concert, the closest good seats are the center floor blocks; the best raised views are the lower sections on either side of center.
The arena was Royal Farms Arena until 2022 and reopened as CFG Bank Arena in 2023 after a full rebuild of the seating, suites and clubs. An old Royal Farms Arena or 1st Mariner Arena chart may not match, so use the current maps. Section numbers on this page come from the arena's own level maps, cross-checked with RateYourSeats' section directory.
- Closest: center floor blocks, Floor 2 and Floor 5 per RateYourSeats.
- Best raised view: lower sections 102–106 and 119–123.
- Value: front rows of 204 and 217 at the center of the upper sides.
- Head-on view of the stage: 111–114 and 209–212 at the far end.
Section ranges, level by level
The arena labels its maps by building floor, so the seating levels have floor numbers. Seen from above with north at the top, the numbers run clockwise on both seating levels, starting next to the stage on the west side.
Floor
For reserved-seat concerts, the floor is divided into blocks; RateYourSeats lists Floor 1 through Floor 6, with Floor 2 and Floor 5 as the center blocks. Many shows sell the floor as general admission standing room instead, and sports events cover it with a court or ring.
Lower bowl, sections 101–124 (Level 3 concourse)
- West side, 101–107: 101 beside the stage to 107 at the northwest corner, with 104 at the center. The west garage entrance on Level 3 opens at section 101.
- North end, 108–117: 108 and 117 at the corners, 109–116 across the end facing the stage, with an accessible platform at the center between 112 and 113.
- East side, 118–124: 118 at the northeast corner to 124 beside the stage, with 121 at the center. The east garage entrance opens at 124.
Upper bowl, sections 201–220 (Level 4 concourse)
- West side, 201–207, centered on 204.
- North end, 208–213, centered between 210 and 211.
- East side, 214–220, centered on 217.
RateYourSeats also lists standing-room positions at 207 and 214, the upper corners at the far end.
Suites and boxes
Suites 1–7 (west) and 8–16 (east) sit on Level 2 behind the lower bowl, the Center Club fills the north end of Level 2, and party suites 301–306 (west) and 307–312 (east) sit at the back of the upper bowl on Level 5, per the arena's maps.
Rows and seat numbers
The arena's maps show sections, not rows. RateYourSeats lists the rows sold for most concerts, which is the layout most visitors buy:
- Lower side sections: Sections 104, 120 and 124 run rows A–Y; section 101, next to the stage, runs from row B through Z and on to CC.
- Far-end sections: fewer rows sold for an end-stage show. Section 112 runs P–Y, with wheelchair positions in front of row P, and 116 runs N–Y, with wheelchair spaces behind row Y. Section 108, the corner, starts at row W.
- Upper sections: short. 204 runs B–J, 216 runs A–L, 210 runs C–M, and 201 runs C–J, with wheelchair positions in front of row C in 201 and 210.
The far-end letters suggest the front rows there are not sold for end-stage concerts; for a center-court or center-ring event, more of those rows can come into play, so check your event's map.
Seat numbers: RateYourSeats reports that the lowest seat number is on your right as you face the stage. The arena does not publish the rule and no second guide confirms it, so if an aisle seat matters, confirm the seat location before you buy.
Best seats for each event layout
End-stage concerts
- Floor, center blocks: the closest straight-on view; on a flat floor, a few rows of tall fans can block the stage.
- Lower sides near center, 102–106 and 119–123: raised above the floor crowd and still close. RateYourSeats names 101–106 and 119–120 as its side-of-stage picks.
- Far end, 111–114 and 209–212: the full production head-on, at the longest distance.
- Upper sides, front rows: the upper sections are only about 8 to 12 rows deep, so row B in 204 or 217 is a better seat than the number suggests.
Center-court and center-ring events
For basketball, wrestling and boxing, the floor becomes the court or ring, and seating at the south end varies by event, so check the event's map. The arena's maps place the side centers at 104 and 121 (lower) and 204 and 217 (upper); seats there and in the sections on either side see the length of the court evenly. The end sections cost less and look along the court.
Views from each level and seats to avoid
The lower bowl is close on all three sides. The upper bowl is steep and shallow, so the front rows look down over the lower bowl rather than across a long gap.
- Sections beside the stage, 101 and 124: very close but at a sharp angle; screens and parts of the stage set can be hidden.
- Back of the floor: flat, so the crowd in front decides what you see.
- Upper corners at the far end, 207–208 and 213–214: the farthest and most angled seats in the building.
- Far-end corner 108: RateYourSeats shows only its back rows, W–CC, sold for most concerts, at a long diagonal from the stage.
Theater boxes, clubs and suites
- Theater boxes: small lettered boxes at the front of lower sections 103–105, 110–115 and 120–122, shown on the arena's Level 3 map and listed by RateYourSeats.
- Suites 1–16: Level 2, behind the lower bowl along both long sides.
- Center Club: Level 2, behind the north end.
- Party suites 301–312: Level 5, at the back of the west and east upper bowl.
- Clubs: the arena names four premium clubs, the Fearless Club, NINETEEN 62, the Center Club and the Vault, open to premium ticket holders.
Premium tickets include parking in the attached garage and entry through the Level 2 premium garage doors, per the arena's site.
Accessible seating
The arena's accessibility page says wheelchair and low-mobility seating is on each level at comparable prices and sightlines, sold through the accessibility filter on the ticketing site, with one accessible seat plus one guest as standard. Tickets cannot be exchanged in advance; the box office can relocate you on arrival. As of 2026:
- Lower bowl: the Level 3 map marks wheelchair positions at sections including 101, 102, 106, 116, 119, 123 and 124, plus the center platform between 112 and 113.
- Upper bowl: the Level 4 map marks positions at 201, 220 and the center of the north end.
- Elevators: on the east, west and north sides of the building.
- Entrances: every entrance except Howard Street is accessible.
- Assistive listening devices: free at Guest Services. The accessibility page places it at section 108, while the A–Z guide and Level 3 map place it at section 109, next to each other on the concourse.
The number and type of accessible seats vary by event; check the page before you buy.
Frequently asked questions
Is the CFG Bank Arena seating chart the same as Royal Farms Arena's?
Not exactly. Royal Farms Arena became CFG Bank Arena in 2022 and reopened in 2023 after a rebuild of the seating, suites and clubs, so use the current arena maps rather than an older chart.
Which sections are in the center at CFG Bank Arena?
Section 104 on the west side and 121 on the east side in the lower bowl, and 204 and 217 in the upper bowl. Sections 112–113 and 210–211 face the stage head-on from the far end.
How are seats numbered at CFG Bank Arena, and what is the view like?
RateYourSeats reports that seat 1 is on your right as you face the stage. Views are close from the lower bowl, and the steep, shallow upper sections keep their front rows near the action.

Per RateYourSeats, lower side sections run about rows A–Y, while upper sections are short, roughly B–J or A–L. Far-end lower sections sell fewer rows for end-stage concerts.

Center floor blocks for closeness, and lower sections 102–106 or 119–123 for a raised view near the stage. Front rows of 204 and 217 are the best value upstairs.
