Avoid – Obstructed View
Although Fenway Park is a small, intimate setting, THERE ARE MANY OBSTRUCTED VIEW SEATS that you’ll want to avoid if you’re looking for the best view.
Grandstand Sections 11-12 and 26-29 – High Rows
In higher rows, poles will block a view to part of the field – including the pitcher, batter, or bases.

Best Value for Red Sox games |
Lower Bleacher Sections 34-43:First, to clarify, the seats are no longer bleachers, but standard folding seats with armrest and back. Sections span from center field to right field. Although not the very best view, these do get you into a classic sold-out ballpark, with no obstructed views and without busting the budget. We’ve found bleacher tickets for as little as $11 online. The bleachers do have a reputation for being rowdy, but with the high cost of tickets lately, a broader mix of fans are sitting in these sections because it’s a great value.
