Kroger Field Seating Chart

Sections at Kroger Field

The Kroger Field chart lists 6 main sections, and the one on your ticket does most of the deciding — price, distance, and view included. Scan the list before you buy, keeping in mind that the event type reshuffles the room: concerts, games, and private buyouts each open different parts of the house.

• Lower Bowl — sideline and end zone
• Club / premium level
• Upper Deck — east and west
• Student Section — end zone
• End Zone sections
• Suites

Best seats at Kroger Field

West-side lower sideline sections near midfield catch the best football angle and afternoon shade. The upper deck on the west side gives a full view of the bowl and stays closer than at many larger SEC stadiums.

Tips before you go

Kroger Field sits on the UK campus with tailgating lots that open hours before kickoff — a Lexington fall tradition. Park in the campus and Commonwealth Stadium lots, and use the game-day shuttles to avoid the congested campus roads.

How to read the Kroger Field seating chart

Kroger Field seats 61,000 around a field, and its chart is organized into 6 named sections — Lower Bowl, Club / premium level, Upper Deck, Student Section, End Zone sections, and Suites. The exact label on your ticket is what pins your spot: a seat two sections over can sit a level higher, a price tier apart, or on the opposite side of the room.

When you weigh a Kroger Field ticket, three variables do the work: how close you are to the field, whether you sit on a sideline or in an end zone, and how high you are. That's why Suites and Lower Bowl can price and view so differently while sitting on the same chart. Use the best-seats notes above as the tiebreak for Kroger Field, then confirm section, row, and seat against the official Lexington map before checkout.

Some context on size — Kroger Field's 61,000 capacity places it 2nd among the 10 Kentucky venues in this guide; Churchill Downs (165,000) is the next size up, KFC Yum! Center (22,090) the next size down.
