Seating Recommendations and Charts 

Though The Castle Theatre does not have traditional reserved seating for most shows, its layout creates multiple viewing options for guests: 

• General Admission Floor – The main floor is standing-room-only during concerts, offering the best access to the stage and most immersive atmosphere. 

• Balcony Level – The upstairs balcony provides limited seating with a bird’s-eye view of the performance, ideal for guests who prefer to relax during the show. 

Seating capacity is approximately 700 patrons, creating a cozy, club-like ambiance. Because space is limited, we recommend purchasing your tickets early through Box Office Ticket Sales to lock in the best value and avoid missing out.
