How seating works

All seating is reserved wooden benches with concrete walkways, numbered front-to-back roughly Row 1 to Row 70. There is no general-admission pit; your ticket is for a specific row and seat, and the seating chart changes from show to show. Two I-MAG screens display magnified video of the stage and are viewable from any seat, so higher rows still get a close-up view.
