Media Deck
-
Media Deck sections at Soldier Field are located on the second level of the stadium in sections 228-246. Each section has 6 to 12 rows of seating in each with the smaller sections closest to midfield. These seats are well known for being the best shaded seats at Solider Field. Sections closest to midfield have excellent overhead coverage. On a hot day sections 232-242 are ideal for beating the heat. And when the threat of rain or snow is present, these seats will keep you dry. For Bears games, this is the home side of the field and seats in this location have a great view of the whole field from an ideal seating height for seeing over the players on the sideline. The same is true for Chicago Fire matches where the elevation makes it easy to see from end-to-end. For most concerts the Soldier Field Seating Chart has the stage set up on the North end of the field. When this is the case, you'll want to skip Media Deck sections 241-246 due to their poor angle to the stage.
Media Deck (Concert)
-
The media deck is the place to be if you are looking for decent views and good protection from the weather during a concert at Soldier Field. Located on the second tier of seating along the west sideline, sections here are also very small (no more than 12 rows in each) for easy access to and from the concourse. For the best protection from the elements, go with seats in Sections 232-242 where just about every row of seating is covered by the 300 level seats above. The coverage begins to get less extensive near the edges of the media deck, but if you stick to the upper rows you will have the best chance at being covered overhead. You can find some good views here, and most particularly in sections 240-241 which keep you close to a traditional end stage setup. However one word of caution is that some fans might comment that the views resemble tunnel vision due to the excellent coverage from the overhanging seating deck above. Luckily most performances don't feature extensive aerial pageantry, so you don't have to worry about missing much at all.

Fans looking for covered seating for a Chicago Fire game should look at tickets in the Media Deck. These cover section 228-246 and have great coverage from the 300 levels up above. The views to the game will be great as well. While not as close as 100 level sections, the Media Deck seats offer ideal raised views to the pitch. For the smallest sections look at sections 234-240 which are located at midfield and in front of the press box.

Seating & Ticket Questions

Which seats are covered?

---

Covered seats at Soldier Field are few and far between, but not impossible to find. The 200 level on the West side of the stadium are the best bet for finding covered seats since almost all sections are located below the 300 level overhang. All rows in sections 232-242 will be covered and rows 8 or higher in sections 230, 231, 243, and 244 will be safe from any bad weather as well.... Read More
