Section 217, Row 2, Seats 5-6

★★★★★

I really enjoyed the view these seats provided. They weren't extremely close, but close enough that we could watch the performers on stage and not have to rely on the video screens to see. The club level is less crowded and has a good height for concerts as well. Overall I would recommend these seats. Downside - no cupholders. It is time for the United Center to fix this!

Club Level

For one of the best experiences at the United Center, consider tickets in the club level for all events. What is Club Level at United Center? The club level is located on the second seating tier and features its own private concourse that only 200 level ticketholders can access. The elevated views over the court, rink, or stage allow for fans to take in the entire event and atmosphere at the Madhouse on Madison. In addition to an exclusive concourse, for Bulls and Blackhawks games ticketholders can take advantage of in-seat wait service and have food and drinks delivered to the seats. This amenity is not typically available for concerts. Best Seats in the Club Level Choosing the perfect club seats can vary by event. Of course for sporting events like Bulls games the sections near mid-court (like 201 or 234) provide perfect seats to watch a game. Those looking for tickets to see the Blackhawks would like those same sections near midcourt since they are near the center of the rink for hockey games as well. However, some passionate fans like to sit on the side of the ice the Hawks will shoot twice (between 220 and 232) for great views of their team scoring a goal. For a concert, the closer the sections is to the stage typically the better the seats are. For traditional end-stage setups this would be sections 218, 219, 233, or 234. Some fans like to be head-on to the stage for the best visuals and sound. At the UC this would be sections 208-210. Other Club Seat Benefits If you prefer to get up and walk around, lines at the restrooms and concessions are known for being less crowded than on the 100 and 300 levels. Sections are only 8 rows so getting too and from the concourse is easy as well.
For Basketball - Recommended For Great Views of the Court

Who doesn't love a center court view?!. Wait staff + fewer rows = minimal time away from the action. Ticket prices in the middle tier

"No Better Seats for Watching the Game"
(Section 234) - ★★★★★ -
Unbelievable seats for seeing what's going on in the court. These seats aren't even on the seating chart. They were and added and straddle 201 and 234 which puts them directly at center court. In our mini-section there were just four seats in a row so you are close to the aisle at all times. Thi...
