Parking, bag policy, transit and history are on the main Chase Center guide.
The Chase Center bowl, level by level
Chase Center has two seating rings with premium seating set between and below them. For basketball, the best all-around seats are the 100-level sections along the sidelines, and the best value is usually the first rows of the sideline 200 level, which sit steep and close to the court. Everything else on the chart is a trade-off between those two.
From the floor up, the bowl reads like this:
- Courtside and floor-level premium sections: the seats around the court carry their own low section numbers (single and double digits) instead of the 100-series numbers, and two seating guides agree on that numbering.
- The 100 level: the lower bowl, wrapping the court on all four sides.
- The suite ring: suites, lounges and theater boxes (small premium boxes with a few seats each) between the two rings.
- The 200 level: the upper bowl, numbered in the 200s.
Seating guides do not agree on exactly where the 100-level numbering ends behind the baskets, so this page does not give a full section range. Use the map attached to your listing to confirm which side of the court a section faces.
How to read a section, row and seat at Chase Center
The useful rule is the seat number. Two seating guides agree that seat 1 is on the right side of a section as you face the court, and the numbers climb toward the left. A low seat number therefore puts you near the right-hand aisle, and the highest number in the row puts you near the left-hand aisle.
- Aisle seats: the lowest and highest seat numbers in a row sit on the aisles. If a listing shows seat 1 or 2, you are on or next to the right aisle.
- Row depth: rows do not run the same depth in every section. Sideline, corner and baseline sections differ, and the arena does not publish a standard row count, so check the row against the section's map rather than assuming row 10 is halfway up.
- Upper sideline rows: two guides place the theater boxes along the sidelines on the suite ring. Where boxes take the front of an upper sideline section, the lowest row you can buy may not be row 1, so a low row number there can still be the front of the public seating.
- Premium prefixes: some floor-level premium seats use a letter prefix (such as C) or lettered rows. Treat those as their own zone, not as part of the 100 level.
Best sections for Warriors and Valkyries games
Sideline lower bowl
The sideline 100-level sections between the free-throw lines are the classic basketball view: close enough to hear the game, high enough to see plays form at both ends. Demand, and the price that follows it, peaks at center court and falls off steadily toward the corners.
Front of the sideline 200 level
The upper bowl is steep, so its first rows sit just above the suite ring rather than far behind it. From there you see all ten players, both baskets and every set play. For most fans this is the strongest view per dollar in the building.
Corners and baselines
Lower-level corners are a sensible compromise: the angle is diagonal, but you are still in the lower bowl. Baseline seats behind the baskets are best for watching one half of the court; judging depth at the far end is hard, and the basket stanchion can sit in the line of sight from low rows.
Seats to think twice about
- Low baseline rows, where the stanchion and the players under the basket block the far end.
- Seats directly behind the team benches, where standing players and staff fill the view during timeouts and big moments.
- The top rows of the 200-level corners, the longest distance to the court in the arena.
Concert configurations: end stage, center stage and the floor
Concerts change the chart more than any sport does, and the arena's capacity rises to about 19,500 when the floor fills.
End stage
Most tours put the stage at one end. The sections behind it are closed or sold as limited view, the sections beside it are sold as side views, and the sections at the opposite end face the stage head-on from a distance. The best mix of angle and distance is usually in the 100-level side sections on the stage half of the arena, and in the front rows of the 200-level side sections at a lower price.
Center stage and in the round
When the stage sits in the middle, every side of the bowl faces it, so the sideline sections in both rings become the best seats and the floor sections ring the stage.
The floor
Floor seats are on a flat surface. The front floor rows are the closest seats in the building, but in the back half of the floor most fans watch the screens over the heads in front of them. A raised 100-level seat often sees more of the stage than a rear floor seat.
- Read the listing notes. Terms such as limited view, side view and rear view describe how a tour has sold that section.
- Check the event map. Production towers, camera platforms and stage wings move from tour to tour.
Courtside, clubs, theater boxes and suites
Chase Center sells premium seating as named products rather than as one club level. As of 2026, the arena's A to Z guide lists areas including Accenture Courtside, the Chase Club, the JP Morgan Club, the United Club, the Ultra Club, the Bridge Club, Modelo Cantina, Oracle Suites and the Theater Boxes. Sponsor names change, so expect some of these labels to differ on a future listing.
- Courtside: the floor-level seats around the court, with their own entrances and lounge access.
- Theater boxes: small boxes on the suite ring along the sidelines, between the two seating rings, giving a flat, direct angle to the court.
- Suites: private rooms with seats in front, sold for groups.
- Clubs: seats tied to a lounge, with food, drink and access rules that vary by product and event.
What a premium ticket includes is set by the product, not by the section number. A resale listing should state the club or lounge access it carries; if it does not, assume the seat is sold without it.
Accessible seating at Chase Center
The arena states that accessible seating is available in all ticket price categories, based on availability, and that guests buying accessible seats may also buy companion seating. The A to Z guide refers to WCA (wheelchair accessible) rows, and two seating guides agree that accessible rows sit at the top or back of most sections, at concourse level, so you roll in without stairs.
- Entry: the arena lists all entrances as wheelchair accessible, with a dedicated lane at the main entrances.
- Moving between levels: the guide lists 11 guest elevators and 19 escalators.
- Service animals: guests whose service animal cannot fit on a lap or under a seat can be placed in WCA rows.
Confirm the current details in the Chase Center A to Z guide before you buy, and make sure a resale listing is explicitly marked as accessible or wheelchair seating.
Practical buying notes for this chart
- Compare angle, not just distance. A front-row sideline 200-level seat often shows more of the game than a deep lower-bowl baseline seat that costs more.
- Pair seats carefully. Two seats in the same row with consecutive numbers sit together; seats with the same numbers in adjacent rows sit one behind the other.
- Family and alcohol-free seating. As of 2026, the arena does not publish a designated alcohol-free or family section, so families usually choose upper sections near an aisle and the concourse.
- Event type changes the map. A section that is a top basketball seat can be a side or rear view for a concert, so read the map for the specific event.
Every order through this site is backed by a 100% guarantee, so the remaining decision is simply which section suits the event.
Frequently asked questions
What are the best seats at Chase Center for a Warriors game?
The sideline 100-level sections near center court give the best overall view. For value, the first rows of the sideline 200 level are steep and close, with a full view of both baskets.
How many rows are in a Chase Center section?
It varies. Sideline, corner and baseline sections run different depths, and the arena does not publish a standard row count, so check the row on the section map attached to the listing.
Which way are seats numbered at Chase Center?
Two seating guides agree that seat 1 is on the right side of a section as you face the court, with numbers increasing toward the left. The lowest and highest numbers in a row are the aisle seats.
Are there obstructed views at Chase Center?
The bowl has no pillars, but low baseline rows can be blocked by the basket stanchion, and seats behind the team benches lose the view when players stand. For concerts, sections beside and behind the stage are sold as side or limited view.
Where is accessible seating at Chase Center?
The arena offers accessible seating and companion seats in all price categories, using wheelchair accessible rows that seating guides place at the top or back of most sections. Confirm details with the arena before buying.
Does Chase Center have a club level?
Not as a single level. Premium seating is sold as named products, including courtside seats, several clubs, theater boxes along the sidelines and private suites, each with its own amenities.
