FAQs

Where is the best place to sit at Gillette Stadium for a concert? ›

Upper Level Side (Concert) Seating

The very best of the seats here for a traditional configuration are found in the lower rows of sections 311-312 and 329-330, where the proximity to the stage helps curb some of the deflation of being so high up in the stadium.

Leave your bags and backpacks at home. The only bag allowed into the stadium is a clear bag not more than 12" x 12" x 6", or a small wristlet or wallet not more than 6.5" x 4.5" If you bring a large bag to the stadium you will have to return it to your car. There is no place to stash these items at the stadium.

If you're looking for a seat in the shade, you'll find it on the west (visitor) side of the field. Look for a seat in sections 125-138, 223-238 or 323-240. If you're seeking sun, pick something on the exact opposite side of the field, like sections 101-115, 201-215 or 301-315.

Membership Options. Gillette Stadium's exclusive Club is an upscale entertainment venue that provides members and their guests with an unmatched game day hospitality experience. The East and West sides of the Club are each larger than a football field, providing end zone to end zone views of the game.

Look for centralized box seats. Box seats are generally better in the middle; if they're off to the side you may only be able to see part of the stage. Box seats offer the advantage that there won't be audience members ahead of you blocking your view. Typically there is more room in box seats as well.

Very few seats at Gillette Stadium offer shade or cover. At least partial coverage can be found in Sections 102 and 107 in rows 34 and above. And in sections CL6 and 204 in rows 22 and above.

The solution? Give yourself the best game day experience and bang for your ticket buck by arriving well ahead of kickoff time. The lots open 4 hours ahead of game time, so we recommend being there as soon as those doors open for the least stressful start to your day.

This stadium is comfortable, spacious, and offers a great environment in which to watch a sporting event or concert. There are plenty of good seats, even the ones that are in the upper deck. The stadium has pretty good concession stands, spread throughout the arena.

The vault houses the valve manifold that feeds the glycol solution to the tubing under the field. The tubing measures 153,000 lineal feet in total – or 29 miles – that circulates radiant heat underneath the entire field, according to Mark Fries, sales manager at Watts Radiant that installed the tubing.

Best Seats, Best View

The Club Level features wider stadium seats, with more incline in the seating rows, providing spectacular views of the full field from any angle.

Are club seats worth it at Gillette Stadium? ›

The best seats at Gillette Stadium is often a debate between being close to the field or being on the club level. For those who prefer an excellent view and exclusive amenities, the Cross Insurance Club is usually the answer.

Bags: Only gallon sized clear freezer bags, authorized clear bags measuring 12″ x 12″ x 6,” women's wristlets or handheld wallets not to exceed 6.5″ x 4.5,” and clear plastic bags carrying only purchases made at the stadium ProShop.

Front and Center Is Better for Sight Than Sound

Snagging a seat just feet from the stage will give you a great view, but the sound won't be ideal. Typically, speakers are located on the side of the stage and are pointed toward the center of the venue. If you're up front, the best sound will be directed behind you.

Find a space just off-center in the venue

According to Swallow, generally, the best place to stand in a large-sized venue is in the middle of the crowd, but just off-center.

The best seats in a football stadium might be at midfield, on the 50-yard line. This is the central line dividing the field, and fans seated close to this line should have a great view of the whole playing surface.
