Rogers Arena Seating Chart

Center ice: 106 and 117, 308 and 323 · Canucks shoot twice at 111–112

Two bowls, a ring of suites between them and a few small 400-level perches. The old GM Place chart still applies; here is how each level reads.

Parking, bag policy, transit and history are on the main Rogers Arena guide.

Schematic Rogers Arena seating chart: lower-bowl sections 101 to 122 and upper-bowl sections 301 to 330 (with 311A and 317A) run clockwise, with center ice at 106 and 117 and at 308 and 323.

Reading the Rogers Arena seating chart

The Rogers Arena seating chart comes down to two bowls. The lower bowl (sections 101 to 122) rings the ice, and the upper bowl (sections 301 to 330, plus the small 311A and 317A) sits above a band of suites and clubs. Center ice is 106 and 117 downstairs and 308 and 323 upstairs. For a Canucks game, the best seats are rows 10 and higher in the neutral-zone sections 105 to 107 and 116 to 118; the best value is the first four rows of the upper bowl between 307 and 309 or 322 and 324.

If you are holding a GM Place or General Motors Place chart, it still works. The building took the Rogers Arena name in July 2010, and the 101–122 and 301–330 numbering on older maps and seat-view photos matches today's guides. RateYourSeats' Canucks chart, updated in September 2026, still uses the same numbering after the recent seat replacement.

  • Closest: lower-bowl rows 1 to 9 along the glass.
  • Best balance: rows 10 and up in 105–107 and 116–118.
  • Premium: the club seats in 104–108, center ice on the penalty-box side.
  • Best value: upper-bowl rows 1–4 at center ice.

Lower bowl, suites and upper bowl, level by level

The section-by-section layout below is drawn from RateYourSeats' Canucks and concert charts; TickPick's Canucks guide places the benches, penalty boxes and ends in the same spots, and SeatGeek confirms the two section ranges. The official arena site does not publish a text version of its map. On the charts' compass, the penalty-box side is the north side and the bench side the south side, and section numbers run clockwise when the chart is held with north at the top: from the west end, along the north side, around the east end and back along the south side.

Lower bowl: sections 101–122

  • West end: 101 and 122, which straddle the center of the end, with 102 and 103 in the northwest corner and 120 and 121 in the southwest corner.
  • North side (penalty boxes): 104 to 108, with 106 at center ice and the penalty boxes in front of it. RateYourSeats lists 104 to 108 as the Canucks club seats, with a lounge, in-seat service for select items and wider seats.
  • East end: 109 and 110 in the northeast corner, 111 and 112 at the end, 113 and 114 in the southeast corner.
  • South side (benches): 115 to 119, with 117 at center ice. The Canucks bench sits between 117 and 118, the visitors' bench between 116 and 117.

Suites and clubs

A ring of executive suites separates the bowls, with penthouse suites and a center-ice restaurant above the north side. TickPick places loge boxes with a private club above 120 and 121. The charts also mark a Champions Club at the west end and Club 500 along the southeast upper concourse; SeatGeek lists Club 500 among the arena's premium lounges.

Upper bowl: sections 301–330

  • West end: 301 and 330, with 302 to 305 in the northwest corner and 326 to 329 in the southwest corner.
  • North side: 306 to 310, with 308 at center ice.
  • East end: 311, 311A and 312 to 314 in the northeast corner, 315 and 316 at the end, 317, 317A and 318 to 320 in the southeast corner.
  • South side: 321 to 325, with 323 at center ice.

RateYourSeats' chart also shows small 400-numbered areas: 400 to 403 at the back of the west end, 400S in the southwest corner, and 400E and 417 to 419 in the southeast corner. RateYourSeats lists them among its sections; they are the smallest and highest seating areas in the building.

Row numbers and where seat 1 is

Lower-bowl rows. RateYourSeats lists most lower sections, including 106, 112 and 117, as rows 1 to 25 with an entrance at row 21. For hockey, the guide is inconsistent: some section pages say row 3 is usually the first row for hockey, while the 117 page says row 1 sits directly on the glass at Canucks games. Rows 21 to 25 sit at and behind the entrance, close to the concourse.

Upper-bowl rows. Upper sections run about 12 to 15 rows: RateYourSeats lists 323 and 311A as rows 1 to 15 and 308 as rows 1 to 12, with the entry tunnels just above row 4. That makes rows 1 to 4 the front block, below the walkway.

Seat numbers: the guides disagree. TickPick says seat 1 is on the aisle closest to the preceding (lower-numbered) section. RateYourSeats says that when you face the ice, lower-numbered seats are on your left; with sections running clockwise, that would put seat 1 beside the higher-numbered neighbor, for example toward 107 in section 106. Until the arena publishes its own rule, read the seat range printed at the end of your row before you sit down.

Best seats for a Canucks game, and seats to skip

  • Bench side, 116–118: the benches are in front of these sections, so the view includes line changes and coaches. TickPick recommends row 10 or higher; below that, players standing at the bench and the glass cut into the view.
  • Penalty-box side, 105–107: faces both benches across the ice, with the club amenities in 104 to 108. Seats directly behind the penalty boxes in front of 106 are the ones to check.
  • The attack end, 111–112: both TickPick and RateYourSeats say the Canucks shoot twice at the net in front of these sections. Upstairs, 315 and 316 sit above the same end. The visitors attack twice toward 101 and 122.
  • Upper center ice, 307–309 and 322–324: RateYourSeats calls rows 1 to 4 the best in each upper section, with quick concourse access and less foot traffic. A reviewer in 308 row 1 says you see everything.

Seats to skip

  • Rows 1–9 in the lower bowl: the glass distorts the far side of the ice. TickPick names the lower rows directly behind the benches and penalty boxes as the most limited, though not structurally obstructed.
  • Upper corners: 302–305, 312–314, 318–320 and 326–329 combine height with an angle, so they are budget seats rather than value seats.

Concert, lacrosse and fight layouts

End-stage concerts

RateYourSeats places the stage for most end-stage concerts at the west end, in front of 101 and 122, with the floor filling the rest of the rink. Its end-stage chart shows the sections beside and behind the stage, lower 101 to 104 and 119 to 122 and upper 301 to 306 and 325 to 330, as not sold for that layout, so the open bowl starts at 105 and 118.

  • Floor: the closest seats, but flat. The guide's chart divides it into blocks that run from the stage toward the east end.
  • Lower sides near the stage, 105–106 and 117–118: RateYourSeats calls 105 and 106 a good alternative to the floor, with height and a clear angle.
  • Head-on, 111–112 and 315–316: a straight look at the whole production from the far end; the guide notes these are the farthest seats from the stage.
  • Upper sides, 307–310 and 321–324: RateYourSeats recommends 308 for end-stage shows, close enough to see the front of the performance, and rows 1 to 4 in particular.

Center-stage concerts

With the stage in the middle of the floor, RateYourSeats says nearly every lower section has a very good view; the center-ice sections on both sides are the safe picks.

Lacrosse and fights

Vancouver Warriors lacrosse uses the full rink floor, so the hockey advice holds. For boxing and mixed martial arts, the ring usually sits mid-floor and the center-ice sections on both sides are the closest raised seats.

Rogers Arena views by level

  • Lower rows 1–9: the speed and sound of the game at the glass, with the far side of the ice harder to read.
  • Lower rows 10–20: high enough to see over the glass and the benches, close enough to follow faces. This is the sweet spot for hockey.
  • Lower rows 21–25: at and behind the section entrance, with the full rink in view and quick access to the concourse.
  • Upper rows 1–4: an overhead look at the whole ice and the center-hung video board, below the walkway.
  • Upper rows 5–15: behind the walkway and farther up; the view stays clear, but plays are small and people pass in front of you.
  • 400-level areas: the highest seats in the building, behind the upper bowl.

SeatGeek describes the bowl as steep, which keeps even upper-bowl seats closer to the ice than their row numbers suggest.

Accessible seating at Rogers Arena

Ticketmaster's Rogers Arena page says accessible platform seating is available on various levels, depending on the event and building setup, with companion seats sold next to it. TickPick describes accessible rows at the top of most sections, and RateYourSeats lists wheelchair seating in front of row 3 in section 117. The arena does not publish a section list in a form that can be checked here, so tell the seller about your needs when you buy and confirm the location with the arena's guest services.

  • Top of the lower bowl: near the row 21 entrances, which keeps the route from the concourse short.
  • Folding chairs: TickPick says folding chairs are provided if needed.
  • Filter when buying: TickPick and other resale sites offer an accessible-seating filter for Rogers Arena events.

Frequently asked questions

How are seats numbered at Rogers Arena?

The guides disagree. TickPick says seat 1 is on the aisle next to the lower-numbered section; RateYourSeats says lower numbers are on your left as you face the ice. Check the seat range printed at the end of your row.

Is the Rogers Arena seating chart the same as GM Place?

Yes. General Motors Place was renamed Rogers Arena in July 2010, and the 101–122 lower and 301–330 upper numbering on older GM Place charts still applies.

What is the view from the upper bowl at Rogers Arena?

Rows 1 to 4 of the center sections, 307 to 309 and 322 to 324, look down on the whole ice and the video board below the walkway. Higher rows are farther back, with people passing in front.

Which side is the Canucks bench on?

The benches are in front of sections 116 to 118, with the Canucks between 117 and 118 and the visitors between 116 and 117. The penalty boxes are across the ice in front of 106.

How many rows are in a Rogers Arena section?

Per RateYourSeats, lower-bowl sections run rows 1 to 25 with an entrance at row 21, and upper-bowl sections run about 12 to 15 rows with the entrance near row 5.

Where are the club seats at Rogers Arena?

RateYourSeats lists sections 104 to 108, center ice on the penalty-box side, as the Canucks club seats. TickPick places loge boxes with a private club above sections 120 and 121.
