Golden 1 Center Seating Chart, Sacramento Kings

The Golden 1 Center has been home to the Sacramento Kings since 2016. The franchise previously played their home games at Arco Arena in Natomas; a venue that was one of the most outdated arenas in the NBA. In fact, the prospect of the Kings once again relocating to another city seemed likely. That is, until plans for the construction of the Golden 1 Center were solidified. 

The Golden 1 Center is the only solar powered NBA arena, and is an architectural wonder. To call the Golden 1 Center a unique venue would be an understatement. Our staff wanted to provide a thorough breakdown of the Golden 1 Center seating chart to help basketball fans decide where to sit before purchasing their Sacramento Kings tickets.

Where To Sit At The Golden 1 Center

The Golden 1 Center is a very easy arena to navigate with open concourses, and only two core seating levels; the lower level, and the upper level. The middle tier consists of premium seating options like the luxury suites, Balcony Boxes, and The Lofts. We’ll begin by discussing the lower level seats.

 

Lower Level

 

The lower level seats at the Golden 1 Center consist of sections 101 through 126. The rows for the lower level sections are lettered and organized in a very unorthodox manner. Know that the triple-lettered rows will come first, followed by the double-lettered rows, and then single-lettered rows. Row AAA is the first row in most lower level sections. Rows T through X will be the last row in most lower level sections.

The Sacramento Kings’ bench is located in front of section 108. The visiting team’s bench is located in front of section 106. The Sacramento Kings’ player tunnel is located near sections 110 and 111.
