For the best mix of view and comfort at Dodger Stadium, sit in the back rows of the Loge Level on the third-base side. For the closest seats without club prices, pick Field Level sections 1–25. For the best value, choose Infield Reserve sections 1–11, where rows M and up are covered. Avoid the first-base side and outfield seats at day games if you burn easily.
Dodger Stadium is the third-oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball and holds about 56,000 fans, so where you sit changes your day a lot. Since the 2026 season the venue is officially called UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium, after the Dodgers sold naming rights to the playing field (the stadium name stays). You will see both names on ticket listings.
This guide walks through every seating level, explains the section codes on your ticket, and shows where to find shade, value and the best views. When you are ready to buy, compare Dodgers tickets across resale sites on TicketWhiz to see the lowest price for each section in one place.
What are the seating levels at Dodger Stadium?
Dodger Stadium has six main seating areas stacked from the field up: Field Level, Loge Level, Club Level, Reserve Level and Top Deck, plus the outfield Pavilions. Each level has its own concourse, and the stadium is built into a hillside, so you often enter your level directly from the parking lot at the same height.
| Level | Sections | Best for | Price tier | Shade |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dugout Club and Baseline Club | Dugout Club in front of Field 1–25; Baseline Club = rows 1–6 of Field 26–43 | All-inclusive premium, closest seats | Highest | Very little |
| Field Level | 1–53 | Being close to the action | High | Rows K and up are covered by the Loge overhang |
| Loge Level | 101–168 | Best all-round view | Mid to high | Good in the back rows, best on the third-base side |
| Club Level | 200s | Padded seats, indoor club access | High | Good in the last few rows |
| Reserve Level | 1–61 (Lower Reserve, then Value Reserve above) | Value with an elevated view | Low to mid | Infield Reserve 1–11, rows M and up |
| Top Deck | 1TD–13TD | Cheapest seats, full-field view | Lowest | Almost none |
| Pavilions | Left 301–315 (odd), Right 302–316 (even) | Home run balls, outfield atmosphere | Low | Right Field Pavilion is the sunniest area |
Field Level (sections 1–53). The lowest standard tier runs from foul pole to foul pole. Sections 1–25 sit along the infield behind the Dugout Club, so the first row of these sections is roughly ten rows back from the field. Most rows have eight seats or fewer, which makes getting in and out easy. (RateYourSeats)
Loge Level (sections 101–168). This is the second tier and many regulars call it the sweet spot. Sections 101 and 102 are directly behind home plate. Odd numbers run down the third-base side and even numbers down the first-base side. You may see these seats listed as Loge Box, Infield Loge Box, Preferred Loge Box or Bullpen Loge Box; the names only describe location. (RateYourSeats)
Club Level (200s). A smaller premium ring between the Loge and Reserve levels, with access to an indoor club area. It suits fans who want comfort without Dugout Club prices.
Reserve Level (sections 1–61). The largest tier at Dodger Stadium, stretching foul pole to foul pole. It splits into Lower Reserve (closer to the field) and Value Reserve (higher up). Sections 1–11 between the dugouts are the most centered and have no Value Reserve sections stacked above them. (RateYourSeats)
Top Deck (1TD–13TD). The highest level sits mainly behind home plate. The aisles are steep, so expect a lot of stairs, but each row sees clearly over the one in front. Sections 1TD–3TD are the most centered. For big games the Dodgers sometimes sell Top Deck standing-room tickets. (RateYourSeats)
Pavilions (300s). Bench seats with backrests sit beyond the outfield wall. The Left Field Pavilion uses odd sections 301–315 and sits next to the Dodgers bullpen near section 301. The Right Field Pavilion uses even sections 302–316. The old all-you-can-eat pavilion offer ended with the renovations completed before the 2020 season. (RateYourSeats)
How do you read Dodger Stadium section codes?
The letters after a section number tell you the level, and they matter because the same number exists on several levels. Section 6 on the Field Level is a great seat; section 6 on the Top Deck is at the very top of the stadium. Always check the letters before you buy.
| What you see on the ticket | Level | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Number only, or FD / FB | Field Level | 42FD = Field Level section 42, down the first-base line |
| 101–168, "Loge Box" | Loge Level | 137 = Loge, third-base side |
| 200s, "Club" | Club Level | Club 233 |
| IR or LR | Lower Reserve (Infield Reserve = sections 1–11) | 11IR = Infield Reserve 11, between the dugouts |
| R or RS | Value Reserve (upper rows of the Reserve Level) | 30RS = Reserve 30, down the right-field line |
| TD | Top Deck | 6TD = Top Deck section 6 |
| 301–315 odd, PL | Left Field Pavilion | 301 = next to the Dodgers bullpen |
| 302–316 even, PR | Right Field Pavilion | 304PR = Right Field Pavilion 304 |
Two more rules help. On the Loge and Field levels, odd-numbered sections are on the third-base side and even-numbered sections are on the first-base side. Reserve Level rows run A–V, while Value Reserve rows use double letters starting at AA. Some listings also add VIP (rows A–H) or MVP (rows J–V), which only describe the row range.
What are the best seats at Dodger Stadium?
The best seats depend on what you want from the game. Use this table to match your priority to a section.
| If you want… | Sit here | Why |
|---|---|---|
| The best overall view | Loge 101–138, back half of the rows | High enough to see the whole field, close enough to feel involved, and shaded late in the day |
| To be close without club prices | Field Level 1–25 | Infield sightlines similar to the Dugout Club in front |
| To sit behind the Dodgers dugout | Field Level odd sections 15–27 | The Dodgers use the third-base dugout |
| To sit near the visiting dugout | Field Level even sections 14–26 | First-base side |
| The best value | Infield Reserve 1–11 | Centered view, lower prices, covered back rows |
| The cheapest ticket in the building | Top Deck 1TD–13TD | Lowest prices, full-field view from behind home plate |
| A home run ball | Left or Right Field Pavilion | Batting-practice and game homers land here often |
| To watch the bullpen | Left Field Pavilion near section 301 | Next to the Dodgers bullpen |
| A full premium experience | Dugout Club or Baseline Club | All-inclusive food, in-seat service, lounge access |
| A view of the San Gabriel Mountains | Infield Reserve, rows D–M | Elevated, centered seats look out over the outfield to the hills |
For families, the Loge Level is the safest pick. It has shade, short walks to restrooms and food, and most of the action stays in view. Fans with knee trouble should avoid the steep Top Deck and stick to the Field Level or the front of the Loge.
Where are the shaded seats at Dodger Stadium?
The third-base side gets shade first, and the back rows of the Loge Level are the most reliable shaded seats in the stadium. The first-base side and the Right Field Pavilion stay in the sun longest. Dodger Stadium's upper overhangs are small, so shade comes mostly from the level directly above you. (RateYourSeats shade guide)
Day games (around 1 p.m. first pitch):
- Back rows (N and higher) of Loge sections on the third-base side, odd numbers 123–165.
- Infield Reserve 1–11, rows M and higher, which sit under the Top Deck overhang.
- The last few rows of Club Level sections.
- Field Level rows K and higher, which sit under the Loge overhang, though this shade arrives later in the game.
Games starting after 3 p.m.: Shade spreads to more of the third-base side. Back rows (N and higher) of Field Level odd sections 15–27, behind the Dodgers dugout, become a good shaded option close to the field.
Where to expect sun: Field Level sections 46–52 and most first-base-side Reserve sections face the sun at first pitch. Reserve 30 down the right-field line is one of the sunniest spots in the late afternoon. The Top Deck has almost no cover beyond its last couple of rows. Bring sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses for any day game outside the shaded zones above.
Which seats should you avoid at Dodger Stadium?
Dodger Stadium has few truly bad seats, but some come with trade-offs you should know before buying.
- Back rows of the Field Level. The Loge overhang covers rows K and up. That gives shade, but it can cut off your view of high fly balls and the scoreboards.
- Low rows of Field sections 1–25 if you dislike netting. Protective netting runs in front of these sections, and its height varies by section.
- Far corners of the Reserve and Loge levels. Sections near the foul poles (for example Loge 157–168) are cheaper, but the view angles away from home plate.
- Top Deck for anyone with mobility issues. The aisles are steep and there are many stairs to climb.
- Right Field Pavilion and first-base-side Reserve at day games. These areas get the strongest sun, so only pick them for night games or if you are prepared for heat.
- Pavilion seats for fans who want a close look at pitching. You are far from home plate and sit on benches rather than individual seats.
Also note that Dodger Stadium limits movement between levels. Your ticket generally gets you into your own level only, so you cannot easily wander down to the Field Level from the Top Deck.
How can you get cheap Dodgers tickets?
The cheapest Dodgers tickets are usually in the Top Deck and the outfield Pavilions, bought for weekday games against non-rival teams. Prices for the same seat can differ a lot between resale sites, so comparing is the single biggest way to save.
- Compare every site at once. TicketWhiz shows Dodgers ticket prices from multiple resale sites side by side, so you can see the cheapest listing in each section. Our guide on how to compare ticket prices explains what to check, including fees.
- Pick the right game. Weeknight games and games against teams with smaller fan bases cost less than weekends, giveaway nights and rivalry series with the Giants or Padres. See how much MLB tickets cost for typical price ranges.
- Time your purchase. Resale prices often drop close to first pitch for low-demand games. Read why resale tickets get cheaper closer to the event and our best time to buy sports tickets guide.
- Track prices instead of guessing. Set a target and watch the market with our tips on how to track ticket prices.
- Buy last-minute safely. If you are waiting until game day, follow our checklist for last-minute MLB ticket deals.
- Consider value sections. Infield Reserve 1–11 and Loge corner sections 157–168 often give a much better view per dollar than the Field Level.

Dodger Stadium seating FAQ
What is the best section at Dodger Stadium?
For most fans, the back half of Loge sections 101–138 is the best choice. These seats give a clear view of the whole field, feel close to the action, and get shade on the third-base side. If you want to be closer, Field Level sections 1–25 offer infield views similar to the premium Dugout Club seats in front of them.
Which side is the Dodgers dugout on?
The Dodgers use the third-base dugout. To sit behind it, choose odd-numbered Field Level sections 15–27. Visiting fans who want to be near their team should look at even-numbered sections 14–26 on the first-base side.
What does 6TD mean on a Dodgers ticket?
TD stands for Top Deck, the highest level of the stadium. 6TD is Top Deck section 6. Sections 1TD–3TD are directly behind home plate, and the view angles more toward the baselines as the numbers rise.
What does PR mean at Dodger Stadium?
PR on listings such as 304PR or 308PR refers to the Right Field Pavilion, which uses even sections 302–316 beyond the right-field wall. The Left Field Pavilion uses odd sections 301–315.
Which seats at Dodger Stadium are in the shade?
The back rows (N and up) of Loge sections on the third-base side get the most reliable shade. Infield Reserve sections 1–11, rows M and up, are covered by the Top Deck above. Avoid the first-base side and the Right Field Pavilion if you want to stay out of the sun.
Is the Top Deck at Dodger Stadium worth it?
Yes, if price matters most. Top Deck seats are usually the cheapest in the stadium and still give a full view of the field from behind home plate. The trade-offs are steep stairs, little shade and being far from the players.
Do Dodger Stadium tickets let you walk to other levels?
Generally no. Each level has its own entrance and concourse, and your ticket mainly gives access to your level. Plan food and restroom trips around the concourse you are on.
What is the new name of Dodger Stadium?
Since March 2026 the venue has been called UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium. UNIQLO bought naming rights to the playing field, while the stadium itself keeps the Dodger Stadium name.
