Caesars Palace - Bette Midler - Seating

Okay,





I%26#39;ve decided we are going to see Bette. Yippeeeeee.





But, can%26#39;t figure out which type tickets to get.



Has anybody seen her show to know which type seats are best?





Section A - Drink Package - Front Orchestra $272.00



Section B - Drink Package - Rear Orchestra $197.00 Section C - Drink Package - First Mezzanine $162.00



Section D - Dinner Package @ Planet Hollywood Restaurant, and Second Mezzanine Seating $136.95



Section D -Drink Package-Second Mezzanine $117.00





I%26#39;m thinking B or C, just not sure how the views are in Caesars.





Would Section D be considered the ';nose-bleed'; section? The prices are a little better.

There isn%26#39;t really a terrible seat at the Coloseum - remember it was designed for Celine with great views from all seats in mind.





Out of the options I%26#39;d go for B - you%26#39;ll get more appreciation of the ';whole show';, although closer in A you%26#39;ll obviously see Bette herself better.





It%26#39;s notoriously difficult to find a detailed seating plan for the Coloseum online - I think I found one on google images once - but it%26#39;s worth it to be sure where you%26#39;re seated.





Enjoy the show!



Caesars Palace - Bette Midler - Seating


We sat on the third row of the rear orchestra in the center. Bette%26#39;s husband sat on the front row of that section the night we saw it. She made a comment to the people in the front row during the show about, ';Who do you have to know to get those seats?'; He laughed. Our seats were very good, but you couldn%26#39;t see her facial expressions very much. I did find out that just a couple rows back from us, and also in the sections to each side of us, the price drops down to the second highest price whereas where we were was included in the highest priced tickets. I don%26#39;t think you can talk to the box office about tickets for Bette. They refer you back to Ticketmaster for the actual purchase I think. I got mine off the online offering. I prefer to call the box office and have them help me with seating when I can. I saw Celine from the middle section, the mezzanine, and it was fine, too. I wouldn%26#39;t mind the balcony, but would prefer the orchestra or mezzanine if I could get one of those. Enjoy the show! It%26#39;s grand.




Thanks for all the info.





I will try to get as close as I can, it would be nice to be able to make out her face/expressions.





What the hey..... it%26#39;s a chance of a lifetime....





right




You can access a seating plan for the Colosseum at:



www.harrahs.com



and click on Events calendar. When you get to a Bette Midler date and you click ';purchase tickets'; you%26#39;ll get a link to:



www.ticketmaster.com



This site has a seating plan for Caesars Colosseum. Your alphabetical section choices don%26#39;t make sense according to the seating plan which has numerical sections. We purchased R.Orchestra Section 6 Row C, seats 616 and 617.



Hope this helps.




Thanks rowdyreno,





I found the following link with an interactive seating chart to give a view from each section.





Thanks again for your help.

Hi,





I found the detailed seating plan (where you can actually make out the individual seats) - this is useful if you (like me) are tall and you prefer to be on aisle seats. You can print it off and count along exactly where every seat is.

lol Poodle...the things you learn from other members.



I%26#39;ve been supplying that same chart all year and until you said something, didn%26#39;t know you could click on the stars on the individual sections and see the view TO the stage!





Thanks for the info!
