Where to sit

Best value

Lower-level (100s) corner sections — close to floor prices below premium sideline rates.

For sports

Center-ice / half-court 100s, rows 5–20.

For concerts

Floor if you want energy; lower-level sections at a 45° angle to the stage often see and hear better than floor rows far back.

Budget play

Upper-level (200s/300s) center rows 1–5 — the rail keeps sightlines clean.

United Center fan tip

The Jordan statue is now inside the atrium - enter on the east side if you want a photo.

Getting there

Illinois Medical District station (CTA Blue Line) is about a 15-minute walk; CTA 19/20 Madison buses stop outside.
