Section 2, Row W

★★★★★

This was my first time at the Ryman Auditorium and I didn't realize how different the views could be in such a small venue. Since most people are first timers they probably run into the same issues as me thinking that the main floor has great views but then find it to be less than ideal. I still enjoyed my time, but the view was pretty limited compared to elsewhere in the venue. Lesson learned, look at photos next time!

  • Main Floor Side

    -

    There are four side sections 1-2 and 7-8. Similar to the seats center sections it is best to be located in the front half of the side sections. The best side seats are in rows B-M in sections 1-7. There will be an angle for some of the seats, but for most shows it will not impact the viewing experience. All seating is pew style which will be a tight fit for some.There is only one way in and one way out of the auditorium. If you are someone who prefers not to walk far to your seats or will need to head out to the lobby frequently sections 7 and 8 are nearest to the exit whereas sections 1-2 are a much longer walk.Toward the back of all main floor sections the view becomes very condensed due to the balcony overhang. While the stage is in clear view for most seats, the overall experience of the Ryman beauty is minimized. For this reason, balcony seats are a great option in alternative to the back rows on the main floor.

    (Section 8) - ★★ -

    Terrible view for a concert. Couldn’t see the backdrop or drum set at all. Really don’t even think they should sell seats with this view. Luckily we were able to move to some other empty seats or it would have been pointless.

  • "Perfect for the Opry!!!!!"

    (Section 7) - ★★★★ -

    I thought we would be a little off center (and we were) but the stage was wide enough that we could see basically everything because we were so close! Amazing to be so close to such talented artists. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here :)

Section 2 at Ryman Auditorium (2024)

FAQs

What are the best sections at the Ryman? ›

Because the Ryman is an intimate venue, you'll have a great viewing experience no matter where you sit. In general, sitting in the front half of the center or side sections will give you the best view. If you're looking to sit in the side seats, rows B-M in sections 1-7 will typically provide the best experience.

What is the obstructed view at the Ryman? ›

If the seat in the diagram or on a ticket says "obstructed view" take that seriously and don't bother purchasing that seat. It means that there is a big, blocky post between you and your view of the stage. Not a simple post, a chunky post. It is not easy or comfortable to look around it either.

How early should you get to the Ryman? ›

Arrive at least a half-hour early for the performance. We got there twenty minutes early and with the security checks, we still didn't get to our seats until 15 minutes after the show started.
