About Hammerstein Ballroom

Hammerstein Ballroom

Hammerstein Ballroom is a ballroom and entertainment venue in Midtown Manhattan in New York City. The venue is at the corner of 34th street and 8th avenue, just a few blocks from Penn Station. Hammerstein Ballroom opened in 1906 as an opera house and the home of the Manhattan Opera Company. It has evolved into a venue for musical acts of all genres, as well as pro wrestling events, ceremonies, and private events. Hammerstein Ballroom underwent an extensive renovation in 1997 and currently has a capacity of 3,500 people for concerts.

Where are the Best Places to Sit at Hammerstein Ballroom

For concerts at Hammerstein Ballroom, there are three sections of general admission floor seats that can get guests as close to the stage as possible. Outside of that, sections 102-104 are the best places to sit, as they have a straight-ahead view of the stage. The same is true for section 202, although it is further from the stage. Hammerstein Ballroom also has box seats on both sides of the venue, although they have an angled view of the stage.

Tips for Visiting Hammerstein Ballroom

Arriving early is encouraged for events at Hammerstein Ballroom. Getting through security can take a fair amount of time, so arriving 60-90 minutes before the event begins can be helpful. Also, since the floor level is general admission, if you want to be close to the stage or secure a specific spot for your party, it’s best to arrive early so you can claim and hold onto your spot on the floor. The good news is that the hand-painted ceiling adds to the breathtaking setting inside the ballroom.
