Hudson Theatre Seating Chart

Sections at Hudson Theatre

Here are the 4 main sections on the Hudson Theatre chart. Ticket price, distance, and sightline all follow from which one you're in, so find yours on this list before you commit — and remember configurations move: a concert, a game, and a private buyout each use the room differently.

• Orchestra — main floor, full width
• Mezzanine — first balcony overhang
• Balcony — upper tier
• Box seats — side boxes flanking the stage

Best seats at Hudson Theatre

Center orchestra rows F through L sit inside the proscenium's natural frame with no overhang cutting the view. The front mezzanine is genuinely excellent here — the small house keeps even the first balcony close to the stage.

Tips before you go

Rear orchestra seats sit under the mezzanine overhang, which can clip the top of tall sets, so center mezzanine often beats rear orchestra for full-stage shows. The Hudson is steps from Times Square, so any 42nd Street train leaves a short walk.

How to read the Hudson Theatre seating chart

The Hudson Theatre chart divides 970 seats on stacked levels facing the stage across 4 named sections — Orchestra, Mezzanine, Balcony, and Box seats. Which of those names is printed on your ticket decides more than location: two sections apart can mean a different level, a different price bracket, and a different side of the room entirely.

Three things decide a Hudson Theatre seat: how far from the stage you are, whether you sit center or off toward a side aisle, and which level you're on. Two sections apart — say Box seats and Orchestra — can put you a level higher, a price tier over, or on the far side of the New York 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 Hudson Theatre. Match your ticket to the official Hudson Theatre map — section, row, and seat — before you buy.

Sizewise, Hudson Theatre holds 970, which puts it 40th of 42 New York venues in this guide: Sony Hall (1,000) is the next size up, Tarrytown Music Hall (843) the next size down.
