- Upper Balcony — back rows of the balcony
- End sections — seating behind the stage end on some setups

Tips before you go
Floor configurations change by event, so check the seating map for your specific show. The balcony is the better bet for full-stage productions with elaborate staging. Free and paid lots surround the building downtown.
How to read the Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium seating chart
Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium seats 3,160 on stacked levels facing the stage, so reading the chart means thinking in tiers rather than rings. The orchestra — the main floor — sits closest to the stage; above it the mezzanine and then the balcony step back and up, and box seats line the sides. Lower row letters are nearer the stage, center sections face it square on, and side sections trade a straight view for a lower price.
Three things decide a Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium seat: how far from the stage you are, whether you sit center or off toward a side aisle, and which level you are on. For a theater this size, the value sweet spot is usually the front of the mezzanine at center — an unobstructed, elevated view of the whole stage without orchestra-row prices. Watch for overhang and any "partial view" note on your seat, and cross-check the official Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium map before you buy.
