Venue and Seating Information
The PNC Bank Arts Center is a historic outdoor amphitheater located in Holmdel, NJ, with a capacity of 17,500. Opened in 1968, it is celebrated as one of the premier concert venues in the New York/New Jersey metro area. The venue features a covered pavilion that offers reserved seating under a roof—ideal for guaranteed views and protection from weather conditions. The front orchestra sections are considered the most premium spots due to their proximity to the stage.
The general admission lawn area provides an affordable option for fans but requires early arrival for optimal viewing spots. Reviews indicate that fans favor the front and mid-pavilion reserved seats for their excellent sightlines while suggesting that far side pavilion seats should be avoided due to angled views.
