MGM Grand Garden Arena Seating Chart
An arena inside the MGM Grand on the Las Vegas Strip, long the city's premier venue for championship boxing, UFC cards, and major concert residencies. The bowl flexes for fights and tours, and its Strip location keeps it at the center of Vegas's biggest event weekends.
Sections at MGM Grand Garden Arena
MGM Grand Garden Arena breaks down into these 5 main sections. The one printed on your ticket sets your price, your distance, and your view, so read it against this list before you buy — and note the layout can shift between a game, a concert, and a private buyout.
- Floor — boxing or concert configuration nearest the action
- Lower bowl 1-23 — full ring closest to the floor
- Premium club rows — center sideline seats
- Upper bowl 200s — second deck
- Suites — perimeter hospitality boxes
Best seats at MGM Grand Garden Arena
For fights, the floor and lower-bowl rows around the ring apron are the marquee seats. For concerts, lower-bowl sections facing the stage end give the best value-to-view; upper-bowl center stays surprisingly close in this compact bowl.
Tips before you go
The arena is inside the MGM Grand, so walk in through the casino rather than circling for an external entrance. Strip traffic and rideshare lines snarl after fight nights; leaving through the casino to a different exit beats the main doors.
How to read the MGM Grand Garden Arena seating chart
The MGM Grand Garden Arena chart divides 17,000 seats in a bowl that wraps a central court, rink, or stage across 5 named sections — Floor, Lower bowl 1-23, Premium club rows, Upper bowl 200s, and Suites. 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.
Every MGM Grand Garden Arena seat is really the sum of three choices: how close you are to the floor, whether you face the action square on or from a baseline, and how high you sit. Put Suites and Floor side by side and the gap shows up immediately — in level, in price tier, and often in which half of the Las Vegas room you land in. The best-seats notes above settle it for MGM Grand Garden Arena; just verify section, row, and seat on the official map before you pay.
For scale: at 17,000 seats, MGM Grand Garden Arena ranks 5th of the 9 Nevada venues in this guide by capacity — T-Mobile Arena (17,500) is the next size up, Las Vegas Ballpark (10,000) the next size down.
Building a seating chart for an event at MGM Grand Garden Arena
If your event lands at or near MGM Grand Garden Arena — a corporate block, a reception, a team dinner — start from the venue's real geography: sections like Floor and Suites and the tiers around them set the footprint. Rebuild that footprint in the maker with rounds for the dinner, rows for the program, and a head table where the format wants one, then assign guests and export a PDF for the Las Vegas event-services team. You won't need anywhere near the full 17,000-seat configuration; private blocks live in clubs, suites, and adjacent banquet rooms — exactly the scale the tool handles.
Hosting a private event at MGM Grand Garden Arena?
From dinner rounds to program rows to head tables, lay out your MGM Grand Garden Arena event the way the room will actually run. The maker supports up to 500 seats and exports a print-ready PDF for the Las Vegas venue's event staff.
