Seating Recommendations and Charts 

SNHU Arena offers a variety of seating options to suit every fan’s preferences and budget: 

• Floor Seating: For concerts, this section offers the closest proximity to the stage and is often the first to sell out. These premium seats provide an up-close experience and are in high demand. 

• Lower Bowl: Offers fantastic sightlines for concerts, hockey, and basketball. These are some of the most popular seats for both view and atmosphere. 

• Upper Bowl: A budget-friendly option that still delivers a comprehensive view of the stage or playing surface. These seats are perfect for families and large groups. 

• Suites & Club Seating: Ideal for corporate events or special occasions, these sections offer premium amenities, private entrances, and comfortable seating with elevated sightlines. 

The arena’s versatile layout changes based on the event type, so we recommend reviewing our interactive seating map when purchasing through Box Office Ticket Sales. Inventory can move quickly—especially for major concerts—so don’t miss your chance. Browse tickets now to claim your ideal seats.
