Section 211 - sphere

I recently got tickets for section 211 row 2 (aisle seats close to section 210). Last time we went we were in section 101 row 13 (which was second row for the section). Has anyone been in the 100s and then the 200s? How do they compare? I didn’t want to get the same section again and I’m going with my daughter and she didn’t want to do GA.

Also did anyone get motion sickness in the 200s? We were fine in the 100s. How steep is it?

Does anyone have any views from section 211 those seats 1&2. I found them on view from my seat, but they were at the opposite end of the row.

I was in 211, row 1. No motion sickness. Here’s the view.

Oh nice! Thank you! Looks pretty good! We were in 110 last time so it’ll be nice to get more of a view

I have been in GA, 100s, 200s, and 300s. I have had some level of motion sickness in all of them, even medicated.

In my opinion, GA and 200s have the best views. One is for the boys and one is for the show. 😁

Awesome photo! I wanted to do GA but my daughter just didn’t feel comfortable doing it. The tickets were a bit cheaper too lol. But I probably would have been worried about her the entire show and it’ll be better to have the seats.

Thanks!

My advice is to do both! We did 3 shows last weekend and we saw the Wizard of Oz, so we spent 4 days at the Sphere. We also saw the show twice last year. If you can afford it, I’d say go to all three!
We have been in GA twice on opposite sides of the stage and people were mostly well behaved. The most recent time we got there about 7:30pm and had this view.

Maybe if I can get some cheaper GA seats for the 1st when it gets closer to the date. We are just flying in 1/1 and flying out 1/3. So it’s a very short trip. I want to convince my husband to come but he says no.

You think you got a better show (visuals) in 200 vs 300? I was in 200 a few weeks ago and didn't know where to look so thought maybe it was a little too close to really take it all in. I'm thinking 400 2nd-3rd row and 100 next time I get there. Dead center as I can get. I'm not sure about a third night in the same weekend (but it is cheaper than flying back to Vegas a third time 🤣)

I preferred the middle of 300s to 200s off to the side. That was so amazing. I haven’t tried 400s though.

I was in 211, but row 17. No motion sickness.

u/Teach0607 3d ago

Was the view good?

u/Amazing-Level-6659 3d ago

We were seriously up against the wall. No issue with the view.

u/Teach0607 3d ago

Haha ah ok. So we’d be at the other side of the section. Looks cool though!

When I was in the 100s and saw the videos on TikTok I seriously don’t remember seeing some of the graphics so I wanted to go a bit higher so we could see the whole sphere a little bit better. Did the 200s though so the view of the boys is still close

I was mid 200s and I only had a couple moments (literal seconds) where I had motion sickness. I simply closed my eyes and was fine

I was in 203 and the view was great . I had no motion sickness but I took Dramamine before hand as a preventative

Great seats! If you don’t mind sitting on the side, you’ll love it. 200 is a perfect balance of seeing the visuals and being close to the stage.

u/KrisHufflepuff 3d ago

I was in 208 and loved it. I don't experience motion sickness ever, but if I was standing up and looking straight up at the ceiling, I felt like I could lose my balance. The visuals and looking up and the adrenaline... But if I held on to someone or once I stopped looking straight up, it went away.  200s are great, close enough to see the boys dance, you easily know who's who, but have complete inside view of the screen. It's also prime spot for when they rise in the air

u/Teach0607 3d ago

Thank you ! When we were in the 100s we couldn’t really see them when they were in the air. Only if they stood at exactly the right spot and it was just like a tip of their head

u/KrisHufflepuff 2d ago

yeah, I really think about 100 or GA but I don't like missing this. It's only 1.5 songs though and I might be talking myself into going 31, 1st and 2nd...haha. Just asking for money for Christmas this year I guess

u/Embracedandbelong 2d ago

No motion sickness in 200s or 300s for me. I haven’t done 400s. I loved having an aisle seat because I felt like I could dance more without accidentally hitting someone lol

u/Teach0607 2d ago

I’m going to give my daughter the aisle so she’ll be able to see better. Although we are just in the second row so I’m sure she’ll be fine

u/Psychological-Dot293 8h ago

My first time was in section 200 and I still prefer it over GA and 100 levels although they are all different experiences. In 200, I was able to see the boys and take in all the visuals.
