Mama Mia In Vegas - Seating Question
 
Hi, I'm hoping someone who has seen the show at Mandalay Bay can help me with choosing seats. Right now I can get Row G in the Mezzanine (about halfway back) or pay $20 more per ticket for 5th Row on the Main Level (we're getting 4 tix.) Both options are center seating (can also get the cheapest last row seats, but figured they're priced low for a reason.) Is this the kind of show/theater where being close is better? Or are views from all seats pretty good? Usually I prefer Mezzanine front row, but since that's not an option, hoped I could get some opinions based on actual experience. Thanks!

We were toward the back when we saw it in December; looked to me like all seats were fine.

In my opinion, it's best to get the closest seats so you can see the props they're using.

All seats are fine, even the last row in the back of the theatre. I wouldn't want to be on the 5th row as you won't really be able to enjoy the dance sequences up too close. Definitely opt for the seats a little further back. I have sat in all 3 sections and liked the middle best. If you want to save $$, you'll be just as happy with the seats in the back, views are good. Just matters on where you'd like to get up and dance in the end :)

Thanks to all for your replies. Since it sounds like views are good from all seats (and we don't mind missing some facial expressions), I think we'll opt for the $82 mezzanine tickets over the $110 main floor ones. With buying 4 seats, that nearly $30 definitely adds up! Thanks again for the feedback!

You won't be disappointed Jv827. Have a great visit. :)
