Where to sit

Best overall

Center stalls, roughly rows 5–15 — close without craning.

Best value

Front of the circle: the view of the full stage often beats the rear stalls at a lower price.

Skip if picky

Far side seats in wide theaters can clip the near wing of the stage.

Upper circle

Fine for music-forward shows; bring the opera glasses for drama.

Teatro alla Scala fan tip

Gallery and box seats can have partial views — study the seat map first.

Getting there

Duomo métro (M1/M3) is a 5-minute walk.
