The official Red Sox website has an interactive seating chart. Use this before you buy, as certain grandstand sections have obstructed views due to poles that support the upper deck. Nothing worse than getting tickets and finding out you can’t see home plate.

Views aside, keep in mind that the grandstand sections have no cupholders, uncomfortable seats, and limited leg room. If you are above-average in height OR weight, they will likely be painful to sit in for the length of a ball game

If you don’t mind being a bit further away from home plate, the right field boxes (the one I went to was 94) were a pretty decent deal, I was really close to the field, you get a great view of the rest of the stadium, the view of home plate wasn’t great but if you go there mostly to enjoy the stadium atmosphere they are better seats than the Grandstand ones, which are really tucked under the second deck and spoils the view a little bit in my opinion. Also, if you find a ticket that is significantly cheaper than the ones around it, it’s probably behind a pole

I like the pavilion boxes. Sometimes you can even get one that gives you a view along the base lines for that price. You are close to food options, close to bathrooms not at all cramped and you’re sheltered if it rains. If you get the last row, they have bar stool type seats with a table to set your beers on.

If you can afford pavilion on the 1b side, that's a great view - very photogenic. However, it's high up.

Any first base side grandstand is good (except a few where a pole blocks the view); loge even better because you are in front of poles. Field boxes are amazing, though hard to get without going through a secondary market.

If you need to save a few $$$, I love section 32/33 because it's a quick in and out and the Monster is touchable from that section. Fewer poles over there, too.

Depending on how many tickets you need there are many options for less than $125 available on the secondary market right now. I would strongly suggest sitting in the pavilion boxes in row C or D. They have excellent views of the whole field and you will be covered in the event of rain unless you pick the higher number pavilion boxes. I typically use SeatGeek to browse and buy tickets and have never had an issue.

Section 42 behind the visitor’s bullpen. Sun in the afternoon, the red seat, a revamped concession area on top (there used to be nothing), cheaper seats, chance for a HR ball, easy exit out Van Ness.

I mean… unethical pro tip: after like the third inning you can just sit wherever you want tbh, as long as it’s not a super sold out game like a Yankees game or something. I have a good friend who can get me in the back door of Fenway with no ticket, and I always sit pretty close to the field and no one bats an eye.

So my advice is to get some cheaper seats and then just move up. Of course if someone comes and says you’re in their seats, apologize and move right away. And don’t call too much attention to yourself.

This one time I saw A-Rod leaving a hotel. So I yell "A-Rod you fucking suck!" He turned around and was all pissed off. He started towards me and i Kept yelling. Then all of a sudden Jeter grabs and stops him. He still looked pissed off. I think I broke him that day. Cause after that he started hitting the roids even harder than usual, and then got busted.

Stay away from grandstand seats if you’re running the next day. Very uncomfy

Great advice! Thanks!

Stay away from the right field box. You literally have to look left and behind you to see the pitcher.

I would choose something along first base line juuuust under the upper decks. Usually best bang for your buck.

Those are the best seats in Fenway for the money.

Right Field Roof Box is the hidden gem here. Amazing sight lines, reasonably priced and no lines for bathrooms or beer (they have a separate section behind these seats so you don’t need to go with the crowded Sam Adams deck)

While there is sometimes a negative connotation towards upper deck seats at sporting events, as a frequent Red Sox game attendee, some of my favorite seats are in the upper deck down the third base line. More specifically I really enjoy PR16-Pavilion Reserved 16. Un-obstructed views, great views of the field, Boston skyline views, and shorter bathroom and concession lines given that you’re in the upper deck. Whenever I have guests visiting I try to get tickets in this section so my guests feel like they’re seeing all of Fenway and the surrounding areas from their seats.
