Rear reserved sections — a real seat for not much more than lawn on many dates.
Best sound
Center reserved near the mix position (the sound booth) is what the engineer tunes for.
Lawn tips
Arrive early, bring a blanket; screens cover the detail.
Weather
Reserved seats are usually under the pavilion roof; lawn is open sky.
Riverbend Music Center fan tip
