The Moda Center, formerly the Rose Garden, has been home to the Portland Trail Blazers since 1995. The venue doesn’t get as much national attention as other NBA arenas. Nevertheless, the Moda Center is home to some of the loudest and most passionate fans in the National Basketball Association. Our staff wanted to provide a thorough breakdown of the Moda Center seating chart to help basketball fans decide where to sit before purchasing their Portland Trail Blazers tickets.
Where To Sit At The Moda Center
Navigating the Moda Center is relatively easy with only two seating levels including the lower level and upper level. The Moda Center’s design incorporates the club seats into the lower level and just behind the 100 numbered sections. This makes the sight lines at the Moda Center above average while NBA arenas have three levels of seating.
The Moda Center’s premium seating options are limited to the Kuni Lexus Club seats, the courtside seats on the lower level, and the various types of suites. Keep in mind that the names of the premium seating areas at the Moda Center could vary from season to season. We’ll begin by discussing the lower level seats.
Lower Level
The lower level seats at the Moda Center consist of sections 101 through 122, sections 205 through 212, and sections 220 through 227.
