Borgata Question

Ok so the seating chart is kinda weird...does anyone have any photos of the inside of the venue? I am in the first row of Section B...the lady told me it was a great seat but she was also slurring hahahaha.

Well, it kind of depends on your definition of great;-)

I have pictures but not of the seating. The first sections directly in front of the stage are "numbered sections." After that, they go by alphabet. So, you are a little to the left side of the center section (depending on your seat), facing the stage, about 27 rows back. The whole section 200 is in front of you, which has 26 rows.

I don't know if those seats are elevated at all.

It's a nice venue, though.

Well first off, there really isnt a bad seat in the house at the Borgata Event Center (or the Music Box for that matter) and I would describe your seat as about 1/2 of the way back...There Are 26 rows in the Numbered Sections and 25 rows in the Lettered sections in back.

The numbered sections (100-500) are all on the floor and the lettered sections (A-E) are "stadium seating" meaning they rise up gradually... the first row of the Lettered sections I dont believe is any higher than the floor (maybe its up one step, I dont remember exactly).

To a "spoiled" fan, however, they arent "great"... but they are good considering its pretty much like 27th row... get me?

I think I get ya hahah so I am slightly elevated....that's fine...I love sitting in the first few rows but the last couple of show Mohegan and Verona it was really tough hearing her...and sitting right next to the soundboard is always the best place because that is where all the sound is directed...so I am happy with the seat! The last time I saw a show in Atlantic City was at the Taj in 2001. I have never seen one at the Borgata.

oh, the Borgata is by far the nicest casino in Atlantic City! you will love it!

Well I enjoyed the show at the Taj...I saw 2 shows at the Hilton Theatre...horrible horrible sound system...but I figured I would make a few days out of the trip!

Hi Eric. I forgot who brought it to my attention here, but someone mentioned that you can actually exchange your tickets for better seats an hour or so before the show. That is, if they are available. I saw Stevie there last month, and they did upgrade our seats. Have fun.

Well that is cool! I think I might keep my seat...I have been down on the floor for this whole tour...it might be nice for a change to sit and have no one in front of me and take pictures haahah

The Taj in 2001 was Trouble In Shangri-La...that was right after 9/11
