Dos Equis Pavilion Seating Chart
Dos Equis Pavilion sits in Dallas's Fair Park, the city's largest outdoor concert amphitheater. A roofed seating bowl fronts a wide lawn, and the venue hosts the bulk of summer touring tours rolling through the Metroplex within sight of the Cotton Bowl.
Sections at Dos Equis Pavilion
Dos Equis Pavilion's seating bowl is organized into the following main sections. Section layout differs by event — a sports configuration and a concert configuration of the same arena are not the same chart.
- Pit — reserved or standing rows at the stage front
- Orchestra — covered lower sections facing the stage
- Center pavilion — covered mid sections under the roof
- Side pavilion — angled covered sections flanking center
- Lawn — sloping general-admission grass area
- Premium boxes near the stage
Best seats at Dos Equis Pavilion
Center orchestra and lower pavilion rows put you close and under cover from Texas weather. For value, the front edge of the lawn just past the pavilion keeps the stage in clear view with far more room to move.
Tips before you go
Fair Park parking is plentiful but the exit crawls after big shows, so consider DART rail to the Fair Park station. The lawn bakes in late-day sun, so bring a hat and water for early sets, and the roof covers reserved seats during summer rain.
How to read the Dos Equis Pavilion seating chart
Dos Equis Pavilion holds 20,000 across a fan of seating that all faces one stage, so reading the chart comes down to a single axis: distance from the stage. Reserved pavilion or orchestra sections sit closest and are usually covered; numbered rows climb back under the roof, and beyond them the general-admission lawn rises on open grass. The lower the section number, the closer to the stage — and the side you sit on decides whether you face the performers straight on or at an angle.
Three things decide an Dos Equis Pavilion seat: how far back you are, whether you are covered or out on the open lawn, and how centered you are on the stage. For an amphitheater this size, the value sweet spot is usually the last few covered rows at center or the front of the lawn — close enough to see the stage, cheap enough to justify, and shielded from sun or a passing shower. Lawn seating is first-come within its area, so arrive early, and cross-check the official Dos Equis Pavilion map before you buy.
