What are the best seats for a Red Wings game?

If you get the upper bowl sides above a certain row, the gondola seating gets in the way. I forget which row, and you already said no to nosebleeds, but it's a thing to remember. It blocks the jumbotron and when the jumbotron is as extra as the LCA one, it's worth having a clear view of it.

I've avoided anything above row 6 in the upper bowl for that reason, but I'm not sure entirely at which row the obstruction becomes an issue. And it's not an obstructed view of the ice, exactly, but it's less than optimal.

(I think there's screens on the outside of the gondola to make up for the obstructed view of the jumbotron, but it's been so long since I've been to a game that I can't remember.)

Additionally, I always try to get center ice seats or to the blue line. I hate being 'off center' or behind the goal. Center ice is probably easiest to follow since it's most like the viewpoint when you're watching games on TV.

I also like the side that faces the benches so you can see the players directly and watch them as they change and how they interact on the benches.

Lowest rows of the upper bowl are my seats of choice in terms of value. Glass is an experience that can't be beat though.

For the first time in Detroit sports history, all four of the city’s professional teams play within a three-block radius of each other. Little Caesars Arena is one of five professional sports arenas that is home to both an NBA team (Detroit Pistons) and an NHL team (Detroit Red Wings). Before the construction of Little Caesars Arena, the Detroit Red Wings and Detroit Pistons previously played in separate arenas for many years; Joe Louis Arena and The Palace of Auburn Hills.
