A visit to our best seats for The Sphere post and you'll see that pretty much any seat at Sphere offers amazing views, and that view holds for most 400 level seating too. We're not saying that there aren't some drawbacks, there definitely are, in fact there are pros and cons, but we think there are more pros sitting in 400 level seats and not just because of cost.
Whether you're seeing Postcard from Earth or a concert, upper level 400 seats are actually a really good way to see any Sphere show. First, you'll get the very best full view of the venue because there's literally nothing behind you to see. It stands to reason that 400 level, especially upper 400 level seats wouldn't be great for a concert because the stage would be as far away as can be, but believe it or not, the venue actually has good views from all sections for concerts too.

There is one thing that many people say about section 400 seats--they are so steep! Yeah, they are and if you get squeamish just thinking of high elevations then these may not be the seats for you, but if you like a damn good view, all 400 section seats, but especially the lower 400 section seats are awesome because you get an unimpeded view of any show you're there to see. If you sit in 200 or 300 sections seat during Postcard from Earth you'll find yourself having to look up and back to catch the full view of the show--your neck won't be happy.

A viral Tiktok complains about having had a panic attack at Section 406, seat 27-28, because the stairs to get to her seat were way too steep. Yup, they are steep and it's something to consider. Section 400 isn't for everyong, and if you're afraid of heights don't sit there, but if you don't mind--and I've seen 80 year olds sitting in that section so it's not all that bad--you'll have a great experience and save money on Sphere tickets.

Recently, a Sphere-goer who had purchased Section 100 seats, snuck into section 405 and says she doesn't regret it at all. Seems strange that she would love those cheaper section 400 seats that section 100 seats, or maybe not, because the view from up top of the Sphere venue is all encompasing and awesome!

If what you want is to see that huge rectangular screen and miss 95% of the show visuals, sit in section 100 (and pay more for those seats) or, if you want the full, 100% view of the show, sit up as high as you can and see EVERYTHING!

So far we've gone on and on, nauseatingly so about the benefits of 400 level seats for Postcard form Earth, if we haven't convinced you by now to save some cash we never will. But lots of people claim that section 400 seats aren't that great for concerts because you're too far removed from stage to experience the show. True. But, in our opinion, they're still not all that bad either especially when considering all the visuals that accompany the concert which can best be viewed from furthest away from the concert stage. Oh, and have we mentioned the cost savings on tickets? Have more questions? Check out the Sphere seating chart.
