Seating at Ball Arena – Denver, CO
Ball Arena (formerly Pepsi Center) is a versatile indoor arena with a capacity of 19,520 for basketball, 18,007 for hockey, and up to 21,000 for concerts. It is home to the Denver Nuggets (NBA), Colorado Avalanche (NHL), and Colorado Mammoth (NLL).
Lower Bowl
The lower bowl surrounds the court or ice and provides the most immersive game-day experience. Floor-level (courtside/rinkside) seats are the premium choice, offering a close, exciting view. Lower bowl sections near center court (basketball) or center ice (hockey) are among the best in the house.
Club Level
The mid-level Club sections offer an elevated, unobstructed view with premium amenities including in-seat food service and climate-controlled concourses — an excellent balance of comfort and sightline.
Upper Level
Upper-level sections provide the most affordable options. Sections directly above center court/ice give the best upper-deck vantage point. Upper-level corner sections can feel more distant from the action.
Best Sections
Lower bowl near center court or ice, and Club Level near midcourt/center ice are the top picks for overall experience.
Sections to Avoid
Upper-level corner sections and any seats with obstructed sightlines near support structures.
Concerts
For concerts, the floor is often converted to standing room, and end-stage configurations provide great views from the lower bowl opposite the stage.
