About The Met Philadelphia
The Met Tickets
The Metropolitan Opera House is a historic music venue in Philadelphia. The venue originally opened in 1908 as the Philadelphia Opera House, closed in 1988 but reopened in 2018 after a massive renovation. At various points during its history, the Met was used as a sports venue, a ballroom, a church, a movie theater, and even a mechanic training center. However, it’s currently used exclusively as a concert venue. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. For concerts, the Metropolitan Opera House has a capacity of 3,500 people.
Where are the Best Places to Sit at The Met
Outside of private boxes, the best places to sit at the Met are Orchestra sections 1-3. Outside of the pit area, these are the sections closest to the stage, with most of the seats in these sections having a central view of the stage. Orchestra sections 6 and 7 are a little further back but have a direct view of the stage. Finally, Loge 3 and Mezzanine 3 will also have a direct view of the stage. However, these sections are elevated, so it’s best to sit as close to the front of these sections as possible.
Tips for Visiting The Met
Parking at The Met is usually simple and straightforward. There are several lots operated by The Met that are within a few blocks of the venue. There are also drop-off points closer to the venue if needed. Of course, arriving early is never a bad idea because anyone with a ticket to a show at The Met can upgrade their ticket to gain pre-show and post-show access to the Citi Grand Salle, which is a lounge located inside the venue. The lounge is perfect for mingling or enjoying food and beverages before a show. It also has two large TVs that have a live feed of the venue’s stage.
Food to Try at The Met
The Met in Philadelphia features several bars inside the venue that serve beer, wine, and cocktails. There is also a small menu of upscale snacks and appetizers provided by Brûlée Catering. The menu is on the lighter side and shouldn’t be expected to replace a full meal. However, it should satisfy visitors until after the show.
