Neville Arena Seating Chart
Home of Auburn Tigers basketball, the on-campus arena reopened under the Neville name in 2022 after a major renovation. Known as one of the loudest college basketball buildings in the SEC, the steep lower bowl pins the student section right on top of the visiting bench.
Sections at Neville Arena
Neville Arena'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.
- Lower bowl — full ring of sideline and baseline seats
- Student section — the Jungle behind the baselines
- Club level — center-court premium rows
- Upper bowl — second deck along the sidelines
- Suites — perimeter premium boxes
Best seats at Neville Arena
Center-court lower-bowl sideline seats around midcourt give the cleanest read of both ends. For the full atmosphere, the lower rows near the student Jungle behind the basket are the loudest spot in the building on a marquee SEC night.
Tips before you go
Student games sell out for ranked opponents, so arrive well before tip to clear the campus gates. Parking around the athletic complex is tight on game nights; the lots off Donahue Drive empty faster than the central decks.
How to read the Neville Arena seating chart
Neville Arena seats 9,121 in a bowl that wraps a central court, rink, or stage, so reading the chart starts at center and works outward. The lower bowl rings the floor closest to the action; a club or suite level sits in the middle; the upper bowl climbs above for the widest view. Lower-number sections sit nearest the action, and whether you are along a sideline or behind a baseline changes the view as much as the level does.
Three things decide an Neville Arena seat: how close you are to the floor, whether you face the action square on or from a baseline, and how high you sit. For an arena this size, the value sweet spot is usually the first few rows of the upper tier at center — close enough to read the play, cheap enough to justify, and high enough for the full picture. For a concert the stage usually sits at one end, so cross-check the official Neville Arena map against your ticket before you buy: a seat that's perfect for a game can sit behind the stage for a show.
