Best sections

Lower bowl - center sideline/glass

Center sideline for Nuggets or lower rows along the glass for Avalanche give the best close-up views at the highest prices.

Club level

Club seats include indoor lounge access, a welcome warm-up at Denver's altitude and chilly hockey nights.

Upper bowl - center sections

Center upper sections offer the best value sightlines; the corners behind the basket or net are cheaper but more obstructed angles.

Insider tips

  • Ride RTD light rail to the Ball Arena / Elitch Gardens station to avoid event parking right outside downtown Denver.
