NCAA Basketball Interactive Seating Chart

Where should I sit for a NCAA basketball game? Each arena varies with respect to seating capacity and configuration. If you like to sit in premium seats, then courtside seats with club access are likely what you want to focus on, depending on availability. Most basketball fans like to sit as center court as possible in a low row. However, those seats do tend to be more expensive, especially for high profile matchups. If you are looking for a cheap or value ticket, explore our interactive seating maps to find seats in the sections behind the baskets. There tends to be good-value seating in those areas.
