Golden 1 Center groups its premium space into three categories — Suites, Lofts and Clubs — and the clubs come with a caveat worth reading before buying. RUSH by Sire Spirits and ASSEMBLY by Crown Royal share a private 360-degree central bar, but the arena describes access in terms of floor tickets for CONCERTS and special events, and states plainly that club lounge availability varies by event. Do not assume a Kings ticket opens them; confirm for the specific game.
Tips & Fan Reports
Any seat is a good seat at Golden 1 Center. If you are on a budget go for an upper level sideline seat. The sight lines are great and it is one of the best arenas in the NBA even up top.
RUSH by Sire Spirits and ASSEMBLY by Crown Royal share one private 360-degree central bar between them.
The arena states that club lounge availability varies by event, and describes access via floor tickets for concerts and special events. Do not assume a Kings floor seat opens RUSH or ASSEMBLY — check the specific game.
With only two seating rings, a 200-level seat here is closer than that number buys at a three-tier arena.
Premium here is three categories — Suites, Lofts and Clubs — and the arena publishes capacities for none of them.
Where to Sit
Every tier in the building, what it costs, and what you give up to sit there.
Courtside / Floor Seats
$450 - $1,600+Most expensive tier
Pros
- The closest seats in the arena
- Floor tickets are the category the arena ties club-lounge access to
Cons
- The club-lounge access the arena describes is framed around concerts and special events, and varies by event
RUSH by Sire Spirits
$300 - $900+One of two club lounges sharing a private 360-degree central bar.
Pros
- A private 360-degree central bar shared with the ASSEMBLY lounge
- Local micro-brews and hand-crafted cocktails rather than concourse service
Cons
- Availability varies by event, by the arena's own statement
- The published access route is floor tickets for concerts and special events — confirm for a Kings game
ASSEMBLY by Crown Royal
$300 - $900+The second of the two club lounges, on the same central bar.
Pros
- Shares the private 360-degree bar with RUSH
- A distinct room rather than a share of the concourse
Cons
- Availability varies by event
- Same access caveat as RUSH — confirm rather than assume
Lofts
$250 - $750+Loft-format premium seating, one of the arena's three premium categories.
Pros
- A loft rather than a suite or a row of seats
- A middle option between suites and club seats
Cons
- The arena publishes the category without capacities or inclusions
- Confirm what the ticket carries before buying
Club Level
$75 - $240The club ring, raised over the lower bowl with the whole court in one frame.
Pros
- High enough to read the spacing of a possession
Cons
- Does not automatically open RUSH or ASSEMBLY
- A deck removed from the lower bowl
Lower Bowl Sideline (100-Level)
$115 - $320Pros
- The best ordinary sightline in the arena
- Close to the benches and the noise
Cons
- The front rows lose the near baseline
Upper Baseline (200-Level)
$25 - $90Pros
- Only two rings here, so it is not a distant third deck
Cons
- Behind the basket, so the near end is foreshortened
Upper Level (200-Level)
$15 - $60Cheapest tier
Pros
- The cheapest way into a Kings game
- The clearest view of how a possession is organised
Cons
- As far from the floor as the building goes

These figures are estimates. Most venues no longer publish the numbers behind them — concession and ticket pricing moved to dynamic marketplaces — so we hold them as estimates rather than dating them as verified.
