    How the MetLife Stadium chart is laid out

    The MetLife Stadium seating chart has three tiers: the lower level (sections 101–149), the mezzanine (201–250) and the upper level (301–350). Two seating guides agree on those ranges. The Giants and the Jets share one home bench on the east sideline, in front of the Coaches Club sections 111C–115C, so the home and visitor sides never change. For most football buyers, the best value is a mezzanine sideline seat.

    • Read the first digit as the tier. A 1 is the lower bowl, a 2 is the mezzanine and a 3 is the upper deck.
    • Read a C as club. On the lower level, a C marks the Coaches Club behind the home bench; on the mezzanine, it marks the two sideline club blocks.
    • Expect the numbers to wrap. Each tier's numbers run all the way around the bowl, so the lowest and highest sections of a level sit next to each other behind one end zone.

    Lower level: sections 101–149

    The lower bowl rings the field and is the deepest tier, especially behind the end zones, where sections run far back toward the mezzanine overhang. Its key landmarks are:

    • Coaches Club, 111C–115C: field-level club seats directly behind the shared home bench, with a lounge behind the sideline. Two seating guides place the club here, and one notes that for Jets games the club covers 112–114 plus the front rows of 111C and 115C.
    • Visitor sideline, around section 139: the opposing bench sits across the field, and a premium club area sits behind it.
    • End zones: the lower end zone sections are close to goal-line plays and far from everything between the 30-yard lines.

    The middle and upper rows of the lower sideline sections are the better buy than the front rows. Low seats behind either bench lose the near sideline to players and staff. The back rows of the lower end zones sit under the mezzanine above, which gives shelter from rain and late-season wind but cuts the view of high punts and the upper video boards.

    Mezzanine: sections 201–250 and the sideline clubs

    The mezzanine is the middle tier and the strongest football view on the chart. Its two club blocks run along the sidelines: sections 207C–220C on the east, home side and 232C–245C on the west, visitor side, with climate-controlled lounges that matter on December afternoons. Two seating guides agree on both ranges.

    Non-club mezzanine seats sit in the corners and end zones, which by elimination are sections 201–206, 221–231 and 246–250. They are a good compromise: a full-field view at a moderate price. One seating guide flags support beams that can block parts of the view from the back rows of some mezzanine end zone sections, especially in aisle seats at the edges. If a listing is in the last few rows of an end zone 200, choose seats toward the middle of the row.

    Upper level: sections 301–350

    The upper deck is the largest and steepest tier and the least expensive way into a Giants or Jets game. Its sideline sections give a clean, full-field view; the first rows between the 20-yard lines are close to a broadcast angle. The back rows of the upper level sit under the stadium's canopy, which keeps off rain and snow, while the front rows are open to the weather.

    • Best upper seats: the sideline sections between the 20-yard lines, in the lower half of the section.
    • Seats most fans regret: the top rows of the upper corners and end zones, which are the farthest seats from midfield.
    • Aisle seats: worth asking for on this level, where rows are long and the climb is steep.

    Sun, shade and weather by section

    MetLife has no roof, so where you sit decides how much sun, wind and cold you get. The stadium runs roughly north to south. For 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. kickoffs, the east, home sideline takes the longest stretch of direct sun, while the west sideline and the south end zone fall into shade first. That is pleasant in December and hot in September.

    Coverage is the other variable. The back rows of each tier sit under the level above or under the canopy, so a high row in the lower level, mezzanine or upper deck stays drier in rain and snow. If the forecast is poor, the indoor club lounges on the mezzanine and behind the benches are worth their premium.

    Football, soccer and concert configurations

    Football

    Giants and Jets games use the same chart and the same sidelines. Midfield falls at the center of the Coaches Club on the lower level and the center of each mezzanine club block.

    Soccer

    International matches use the same bowl. Sideline sections in the mezzanine and the upper rows of the lower level show the shape of both teams better than low end zone seats.

    End-stage concerts

    For most stadium tours, the stage stands at one end and the field becomes temporary floor sections, labeled Floor 1 through about Floor 14 on many charts. End zone sections behind the stage, at all three levels, are usually closed or sold as limited view; seating guides flag sections such as 149 and 349 as behind or beside the stage for most shows. The best seats are the floor sections nearest the stage and the lower and mezzanine sidelines on the stage half of the bowl.

    Accessible seating and getting to your seat

    The stadium states that wheelchair, low-mobility and companion seating is available on all levels, and its stadium map marks the specific wheelchair locations.

    • Elevators: for guests with disabilities, at the HCLTech, Verizon and Moody's entrances, plus elevators serving premium seating on the east and west sides.
    • Ramps: public ramps at the north and south end zones.
    • Escalators: at the AMEX, HCLTech, Verizon, MetLife and Moody's entrances.
    • Hearing access: ListenWIFI assistive listening through your phone, hearing loops at ticket windows and concession stands, and captions on the ribbon board below the Moody's and HCLTech video screens.
    • Other support: accessibility assistants who provide wheelchair transport from the gates, single-user restrooms on every level and sensory pods.

    The stadium does not publish an alcohol-free section on its accessibility page. Details are on the stadium's accessibility page.

    Frequently asked questions

    What are the best seats at MetLife Stadium?

    For football, mezzanine sideline seats, including the 207C–220C and 232C–245C clubs, give the best view. On a budget, the lower half of the upper-level sideline sections between the 20-yard lines is the value pick.

    How many rows are in MetLife Stadium sections?

    Depth varies by tier and position: lower end zone sections run deepest, while the mezzanine is a shorter ring. Check the row on a listing against the chart for that section, and remember that high rows on each level are covered.

    Which MetLife seats have obstructed views?

    One seating guide flags support beams in the back rows of some mezzanine end zone sections. For concerts, end zone sections behind or beside the stage are often limited view.

    Where is accessible seating at MetLife Stadium?

    Wheelchair and companion seating is on all levels, marked on the stadium map. Accessible elevators sit at the HCLTech, Verizon and Moody's entrances, with ramps at the north and south end zones.

    What is the club level at MetLife Stadium?

    The mezzanine clubs run along both sidelines in sections 207C–220C and 232C–245C, with indoor lounges. The Coaches Club, 111C–115C, sits at field level behind the home bench.

    Which seats are covered at MetLife Stadium?

    The back rows of each tier sit under the level above or under the canopy. Front rows on every level are open to sun, rain and snow.
