Ryman Auditorium Seating Chart

Ryman Auditorium, with its capacity of 2,362 seats, has various seating options to suit every preference. The venue features two levels: 

» Main Floor
» Balcony

Both offer a fantastic show experience. If you simply want the best seats in the house, the central sections are a great choice. They offer the most direct and comfortable views of the stage — letting you immerse yourself in the performance. For a broader, elevated view, the center balcony sections are perfect for taking in the entire stage. The closer to the stage you are, generally, the more expensive tickets will be.

If you’re seeking a balance between cost and experience, the balcony side sections offer angled views of the stage, although still with great lines of sight and excellent sound. On the main floor sides you’ll have good visibility. There are also standing room only tickets available behind the balcony seats, offering a similar view to the balcony. But thanks to the venue’s design and tech, you’ll have an excellent show from anywhere.

Ryman Auditorium accessible seating

Ryman Auditorium has accessible seating options on both the Main Floor and Balcony. These seats come with companion seating, meaning everyone can enjoy the show together. You can buy these tickets online or contact the box office for more information.

Wheelchair-accessible restrooms are located in both the upper and lower lobbies. The auditorium also has an elevator in the lobby that provides access to the balcony, while a backstage elevator is available for those on tours.
