Best seats at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory
Most shows sell reserved seats plus general-admission lawn tickets. The lawn is uncovered, so in a storm or the Texas sun the reserved seats inside are the safer pick. The fixed seats sit in the 200 and 300 levels, which the venue's spec sheet puts at 1,869 seats, while the floor in front of them can be seated or cleared for a standing crowd. Elevators reach the Hill Top and the accessible seating at the bottom of the lawn.

How to read the The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory seating chart
Start with the setup for your show. Indoor theater shows use the floor and the fixed seats, up to 4,000 people. Amphitheater shows open seven automated doors in the back wall and add the lawn, up to 8,000. The venue does not post a seat map for every show, so check the one on your ticket site.
The fixed seats sit in two levels: the 200s, with sections 200 and 202 at 163 seats each, and the 300s, with sections 300 and 303 at 408 seats and 301 and 302 at 359. The center blocks in front of them carry no section number on the plans. Accessible platforms sit by the sound and mix position and along the convertible back walls.
Accessible seats are sold in every price range, and sign language interpreters can be requested at least 2 weeks ahead. Elevators lead to the Hill Top and, through the East Plaza, to the accessible seating at the bottom of the lawn.

Live Nation rents the Pavilion for private events. The East Plaza and lobby hold receptions of up to 2,000, the Hilltop Grill patio 300, the West Plaza 400, the stage 250 and the VIP Lounge 120.
