Royal Albert Hall seat numbers seating plan
Royal Albert Hall seating reviews
Review 1: 'Because the Hall is so large and is circular in shape, the seats that face the stage directly are very far from the stage. All of the seats in the upper balcony (called the Circle) are also very far from the stage. So if you buy seats facing the stage or anywhere in the Circle, make sure to bring binoculars. The main floor (called the Arena) does not slope toward the stage, so seats there do not have a good view and should be avoided. The best seats are in the Stalls (which are above the Arena floor), on the sides of the stage. The side seats in the stalls swivel so the strain is not bad on your neck or back.'
Review 2: 'The opera productions performed in the round are really nice. The performers usually come down to stage through steps down the audience. I would recommend a seat in the stalls if possible. The Grand Tier Boxes seem to offer more space than the Loggia Boxes. We visit the Royal Albert Hall frequently and in our opinion there is no such thing as a bad seat even in the gods (Circle)! It's a very small venue, full of history, it's quite old fashioned, same door staff for many years, which adds to its charm. It has the best assistance for the disabled and customer care out of all the London venus we go to. Enjoy your visit.'
Review 3: 'I have been to quite a few concerts and events at the Albert Hall and have sat in all the different levels except the Standing Gallery. The most comfortable are indeed the boxes but that does not mean you will get a brilliant view because in some of the boxes there are support pillars that mar the view. Also if the box you are sitting in is nearer the front of the hall you do not get a very good view. To be quite honest I have always found that the best seats are in the Circle directly in front of the stage but there are three major draw backs from the stalls:
You are furthest away from the stage at this point.
It is very high and not ideal if you suffer from vertigo.
As you are sat very high the heat rises to the top of the hall and it can become incredibly hot and uncomfortable even in the winter.'
Royal Albert Hall Arena seats reviews
Review 4: 'The Arena floor is flat and a few feet below the level of the front of the platform, so for a classical concert, you won't have a very good view of the orchestra.'
Review 5: 'For the Classical Spectacular the Arena may not be the best choice for everyone as there are lasers, cannons, musketeers and fireworks all at the upper levels of the hall. You would be craning your neck if in the Arena.'
Royal Albert Hall Stalls seats reviews
Review 6: 'The view from the Stalls is fine, but bear in mind that the hall is very large, so the central stalls (blocks J, K, L) are some way from the stage. Personally, I prefer the Side Stalls near to the platform. You get a better view and the sound still seems quite well balanced. The stalls seats swivel, so you can turn to face the performers.'
Review 7: 'I've sat in the Stalls for blues concerts and it's a great view, you feel very close to the stage too... all I'd say is that people on the Arena floor get obstructed views when others in front stand up to dance or take pictures etc, probably not a concern at a classical concert, but I still say the Stalls or the Circle are the best bet. Because of the steep angle nothing gets in your way whereas the Arena floor is flat.'
Review 8: 'I am with the Friends of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and have been to the RAH many many times. I have sat in types of seats and without a doubt the best seats are Stalls or Logia boxes. However Stalls are cheaper than Logia. The seats in the Stalls are very comfortable and they swivel so that even if you are near the stage you can turn to face the Orchestra.'
Royal Albert Hall Circle seats reviews
Review 9: 'Circle offers the next best seats after the Stalls. They are a bit high up, but the RAH isn't huge and the bowl design means noone is hugely far from the action and the acoustics are famously excellent so you'll hear the opera perfectly well.'
Royal Albert Hall Choir seats reviews
Review 10: 'Choir are odd seats, some people really like them as the view is pretty unique (in that you see the side and sometimes back of performers' heads) but some don't like it.'
Review 11: 'When Promming, we always did Choir and loved it. Much closer, and usually much cheaper.'
