The United Center is three plain rings — 100, 200 and 300 — with the club product concentrated entirely on the middle one. Over 3,000 Lexus Club seats sit on the 200 Level, shared between the Blackhawks and the Bulls, and a 200-Level club ticket is what admits you to the Lexus Club Level at all. The Club Suite Level above it carries the BMO Club at the west end and the Michelob Ultra Theater Boxes on the east.
Tips & Fan Reports
Best seats to watch hockey are the top level first few rows. Very little obstruction and you get to see the whole game unfold. The jumbotron covers anything you might miss.
Lexus Club members can buy from every concession stand on the 100, 200 and 300 concourses, which is a genuine perk in a building this size.
For hockey the 200 and 300 levels show you more of the game than the glass does, at a fraction of the price.
The BMO Club at the west end is a season product covering both Blackhawks and Bulls home games.
A 200-Level club seat is the only ticket that admits you to the Lexus Club Level — no other seat, at any price, gets you in.
Where to Sit
Every tier in the building, what it costs, and what you give up to sit there.
Glass Seats
$300 - $900+Pros
- The players are physically at your eye line
- Contact on the near boards happens directly in front of you
Cons
- The most expensive Blackhawks ticket
- You see the least hockey of any seat in the building — the near boards and the glass hide the far end
100-Level (Lower Bowl)
$160 - $400Pros
- The best all-round hockey sightline at the United Center
- Close enough to hear the boards without losing the far end
Cons
- No club access — the Lexus Club is a 200-Level product
Lexus Club (200 Level)
$120 - $320Pros
- Over 3,000 club seats — this is the building's main premium product, not a boutique one
- Club members may use every concession stand on the 100, 200 AND 300 Level concourses, not just their own
- The full-ice view that makes hockey legible
Cons
- A 200-Level club ticket is the only way into the Lexus Club Level; nothing else admits you
- Removed from the noise of the lower bowl
BMO Club
$200 - $550+The west end of the Club Suite Level, looking down the length of the ice.
Pros
- A suite experience at a fraction of a suite's cost
- Covers every Blackhawks and Bulls preseason and regular season home game
Cons
- End-on rather than along the side
- Sold as a season product covering both tenants, so it is not a single-game ticket
Michelob Ultra Club Theater Box
$400 - $1,200+Most expensive tier
Four-person boxes on the east side of the Club Suite Level, looking out over the ice.
Pros
- A reserved table in an all-inclusive lounge comes with the box
- Four seats of your own rather than a row in the crowd
Cons
- Fixed at four people
- Club Suite Level height, so the ice is well below you
200-Level (Mezzanine)
$70 - $200The middle ring outside the club sections, with the whole sheet visible.
Pros
- Club-level height without club-level pricing
- For hockey, height is worth more than proximity
Cons
- No Lexus Club access — that needs a club seat specifically
- A deck removed from the boards
300-Level (Upper Bowl)
$25 - $90Cheapest tier
The top ring, high over the ice with the whole rink and both benches below.
Pros
- The cheapest Blackhawks ticket
- The clearest view of a breakout and a forecheck developing
Cons
- Steep, and a long way up
Chicago Blackhawks Seat Comfort
Padded seat cushions and compact binoculars for the upper deck.

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.
