Gainbridge Fieldhouse Seating Chart
Home of the Indiana Pacers and Indiana Fever. The downtown Indianapolis fieldhouse was designed to evoke a classic high-school basketball gym at NBA scale — Indiana basketball architecture, on purpose.

Section 6 behind the Pacers bench is the marquee lower-bowl ticket. Section 217 is the upper-deck value seat — center court, steep enough that no head obstructs.
Tips before you go
Skywalks connect the fieldhouse to most downtown hotels, so you can walk from your room to your seat without going outside. Pre-game at the St. Elmo Steak House if you can get the reservation.
How to read the Gainbridge Fieldhouse seating chart
Start with the shape of the room: 17,923 seats in a bowl that wraps a central court, rink, or stage, split into 4 sections — Lower level 1-30, Suites and theater boxes, Upper level 201-230, and Krieg DeVault Club. Your ticket names exactly one of them, and that name is worth reading twice, because neighboring sections can differ by a full level, a price tier, or which side of the room you face from.
Three things decide a Gainbridge Fieldhouse seat: how close you are to the floor, whether you face the action square on or from a baseline, and how high you sit. Two sections apart — say Krieg DeVault Club and Lower level 1-30 — can put you a level higher, a price tier over, or on the far side of the Indianapolis venue, so which one is the value sweet spot comes down to the event and your budget; the best-seats notes above call it for Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Match your ticket to the official Gainbridge Fieldhouse map — section, row, and seat — before you buy.
Some context on size — Gainbridge Fieldhouse's 17,923 capacity places it 5th among the 11 Indiana venues in this guide; Ruoff Music Center (24,000) is the next size up, Victory Field (14,200) the next size down.
