How to read the The Wharf Amphitheater seating chart
Sections 100 to 103 sit closest to the stage and run back to row AD. At shows without a pit, center section 102 starts at row A, and at pit shows these sections start at row N.
The 200s sit behind them: 200 to 203 run rows A to K, while 204 to 206 are single rows of 14 to 18 seats. The 300s, sections 300 to 309, fill the back. Row letters skip I, O and Q, and most 300s sections jump from row A straight to row D, read off the maps.
