PNC Park Seating for Pirates Games

PNC Park features a larger lower seating bowl than many MLB venues, with the upper deck of the inner bowl being occupied by both the 200 and 300 level sections. Given this architectural layout, fans will mostly want to search for tickets in the lower 100 level if searching for the best possible views.

Some of the very best views are found in the lower half of sections 109-112 and 121-124 (rows A through Q). These seats keep you close to the dugouts, provide good angles facing the middle of the infield, and also have a nice elevation above field level which prevents being too low. Seats in the first row (A) will have a railing just in front, but also have good height over the premium box level seats located closer to the field.

Many baseball purists prefer a view from behind home plate, and if you find yourself in that category you will want to search in the middle rows of sections 115-117. From seating rows P through Q you will have expansive straight away views of the field, with a perspective that is tough to match when looking to analyze pitch selection as the ball crosses home plate. Sitting too close to the field in these sections comes with the drawback of being distracted by the protective netting, but as you get higher up you will begin to notice it less and less.

Given the more jagged design of the left field corner, we can't recommend seats down the third base line due to limited views to the near outfield wall. However seating is much shallower near the right corner, where you can find good all around views from box level sections 1-2, or the first 7 rows of sections 103 and 105. There is just a small amount of area near the right field foul pole where you won't be able to see, and although further from the infield, these seats are nicely angled toward the diamond for good viewing angles to the majority of the field.

The 200 level at PNC Park (also known as the PBC level) can feel a bit higher than many other second seating tiers across the MLB due to the larger 100 level and suite level just beneath. However there are still excellent views to be had here, most notably in Rows D and higher of sections 209-210 and 222-223. You will be facing perfectly at the heart of the infield from a good seating height, but we recommend avoiding rows A-C as the railing in front can be a distraction.

With the upper seating tier being shared by the 200 level and 300 level sections, as well as hosting multiple ADA accessible seating areas, there are a significant amount of railings to contend with when sitting in the 300 level seats. For a better mix of clear views without feeling too far removed, pass on these upper deck options and stick with the 100 and 200 level suggestions detailed above.

Rows A-Q in Sections 109, 110, 112 and 121

• Great positioning to the center of the infield
• Close to the action while maintaining good elevation above field level
• Good views of players entering and exiting the dugouts

Rows P-Z in Sections 115, 116 and 117

• Dissect every pitch with behind home plate views
• Straight away sight lines to the majority of the infield
• Good viewing height for seeing more of the field

Rows A-G in Sections 103 and 105

• Seats are nicely angled toward the back of the infield
• More affordable lower tier options
• Good views to the Pirates Dugout and left field videoboard

Sections 1 and 2

• Close proximity makes you feel like you're on the field
• Seats are nicely angled back towards the infield rather than left center
• Clear views of all areas of the field other than a small fraction of the deep right corner

Rows D-K in Sections 209, 210, 222 and 223
