Where to Sit at American Family Field

Before you shop any seat here for sun or shade, start with the roof. The Brewers decide whether to open or close the roof on the day of the game, so when you buy your tickets, you won’t know yet which it will be. Buy a seat you would be happy with either way. If the roof is closed, you don’t need to think about sun or shade at all, and on a cold night the Brewers heat the seating bowl.

The stadium has 4 levels: Field Level (100s), Loge Level (200s), PNC Club Level (300s), and Terrace Level (400s) up top. The home dugout is on the first-base side. On value, shop the Terrace first for the cheapest actual seat, the Loge outfield and the bleachers for the middle tier, and the Field Level corners for proximity without the center-infield premium. The one oddity is the $5 Uecker Seats behind home plate, which are obstructed-view and priced for it, and worth doing once for the story.

Verify before you go: section numbering, tier names, and the roof and shade reads all shift. Check anything specific on the official American Family Field ballpark pages on mlb.com/brewers in the month before you buy.

The seating layout

There are 4 levels, bottom to top, and all of them sit under the retractable roof:

Field Level (100s). This is the lowest tier and the closest to the action. The premium infield sections sit behind the plate, roughly sections 112 through 123, with the corner and outfield sections wrapping out from there. It is also the most expensive level in the park. The home dugout is on the first-base side.

Loge Level (200s). This is the second level, above the Field Level, and it includes the Loge outfield sections and the Loge bleachers. It gives you closer sightlines than the upper deck without the lower-infield premium.

PNC Club Level (300s). This is the club tier, with in-seat service across much of the level, and it is the step up in comfort if budget is not the constraint.

Terrace Level (400s). This is the upper deck, and it is where the cheapest seated tickets tend to be. Before you buy up here, know that in a handful of sections behind home plate, the roof’s pivot and support structure blocks part of the view. That block is the Uecker Seats; everywhere else on the Terrace you are buying a normal upper-deck sightline.

Best-value sections

• The Terrace infield and outfield (400s) are where the cheapest seated tickets tend to live. It is solid upper-deck value if you avoid the obstructed rows behind home plate. From the upper infield you get a centered view of the whole field with the fan-shaped roof in view. If you are optimizing on price, shop this tier first.
• The Loge outfield, Loge bleachers (200s), and the Field Bleachers are the middle step. They give you closer sightlines than the upper deck without the lower-infield premium, which makes them the comfortable option for a fan who wants to be near the field without paying for the premium sections behind the plate.
• On the Field Level, buy the corners and ends. The premium is the lower-center infield, roughly 112 through 123. The corners and outfield sections get you the low vantage and the close-up action without the top-dollar center price.

Before you commit to a specific seat, confirm its sightline against the official seating map on mlb.com/brewers.

The Uecker Seats

Behind home plate, at the back of the upper Terrace, sits a small block of seats the Brewers sell for $5 on the day of the game. You buy them at the Brewers Ticket Office, Window 7, when the gates open, and they are not sold for Opening Day or postseason games. These are the Uecker Seats, roughly sections 421 through 423 and about 103 seats, and they are cheap because the roof’s pivot and support structure blocks part of the view.

The seats are named for Bob Uecker and his old Miller Lite commercial, with its line, “I must be in the front row.” A statue of Uecker, dedicated in 2014, sits behind the last row of Section 422.

So this is a novelty buy, and a good one if you go in with the right expectations. You will not see every pitch cleanly, but you will pay $5 and get a photo with the statue. For a first-timer who wants the story more than the view, it is hard to beat. If you want to watch the whole game, buy a Terrace seat outside the obstructed block.

Sun and shade

The roof matters most here, because a closed roof leaves no sun to plan around, and the Brewers decide whether to close it on game day. With the roof open, the sun is over the first-base side for most of an afternoon game, so the third-base side is the one facing it. At a night game it goes down behind the stands between home plate and first base. For the sun on your own date and start time, check the Bleacher Bound SunTracker before you buy.

Premium and club seats

The premium and group spaces run from the club level in the infield out to the group spaces in the outfield. The main one is the PNC Club Level (the 300s, with in-seat service, roughly sections 314 through 343). In right field, the Johnsonville Party Deck takes groups from about 25 up to 260. Above the right-field Loge bleachers is the Miller High Life Loft, and above the right-center wall is Toyota Territory. The Associated Bank Power Alley sits above the bullpen, and the Aurora Health Care Bullpen is a field-level space behind the right-field wall. The Flecha Azul Patio, up on the PNC Club Level, opens to any ticketed fan first-come on select dates, which makes it worth checking even on a cheap ticket. There are also the Northwestern Mutual Legends Club, the SKYY Lounge, the J. Leinenkugel’s Barrel Yard Brew Room, an X-Golf, and the suites.

The Truss Club, a 20,000-square-foot all-inclusive club with 375 padded seats in the first six rows behind home plate (the widest seats in the park), is set to open in 2027, so confirm it is open before you plan a trip around it.

How to find the right ticket

Cubs series tend to be the biggest draw, and the Brewers treat those dates as the marquee ones on the home schedule. Cardinals series tend to be the other big rivalry draw.
