Seating Recommendations and Charts

UCCU Center offers seating for approximately 8,500 guests, with a flexible layout that adjusts between arena-style reserved seating for basketball and mixed reserved/GA configurations for concerts and special events. Numbered bowl sections surround the floor, with premium floor sections added for select shows.

• Center Court Sections: For basketball, choose sideline seats at center court for the most balanced view of the action. Rows typically range from 1–30, with lower rows closest to the floor for an immersive game-day experience.
• Floor Sections (Concerts): When concerts convert the arena to a stage-and-floor setup, the front floor sections offer the closest proximity to the stage — ideal for fans who want to be in the heart of the show.
• Lower Bowl Sideline: Lower bowl sidelines provide strong sightlines for both concerts and games, with a comfortable elevation that makes it easy to track fast-paced play or enjoy clean views of the stage.
• VIP Seating: Select events feature VIP and premium seating options with enhanced views and amenities. These areas are limited and in high demand for marquee shows and special performances.
• Accessible Seating: Accessible seating is available throughout the arena with companion seating options. Elevators and ramps provide smooth access to all seating levels.

Use Ticket Purchase’ interactive seating chart to view live seat availability, compare prices, and choose the section that fits your experience. If you’re planning ahead, reviewing the UCCU Center seating chart before you buy helps you zero in on your ideal vantage point.

Location and Transportation

Venue Address

UCCU Center

800 W University Parkway

Orem, Utah 84058

Located about 40 miles south of Salt Lake City on the UVU campus, the arena is easy to reach from I-15 and major local roadways.

• Parking: On-site parking is available in UVU lots adjacent to the arena; parking fees may apply for some events. Arrive early for the best spots and quickest exit.
• Public Transit: Served by Utah Transit Authority (UTA) bus routes, with Orem Central Station (FrontRunner commuter rail) nearby and connecting buses to UVU.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are located near the main entrance for quick arrivals and departures.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime to streamline your parking and entry. Early arrival helps you beat pre-event traffic around University Parkway, secure closer parking in UVU lots, and breeze through security checkpoints — especially helpful for high-demand concerts and big basketball matchups.

As an indoor venue, weather won’t impact your seat or the performance, but it can affect travel and parking conditions. Give yourself a few extra minutes during winter months or on busy weekends. Wayfinding on campus is well-marked, and walking routes from adjacent lots involve minimal elevation.

If you’re using UTA’s FrontRunner and bus connections, check schedules ahead of time and allow a buffer for transfers. For rideshare, set your pickup point near the designated zone by the main entrance for a smoother exit after the show. Mobile entry is common — download your UCCU Center tickets in advance in case cell service is congested during peak entry times.

Venue Navigation

The arena’s layout is efficient and straightforward: bowl seating wraps the floor, with concourses that connect concessions, restrooms, and merchandise stands throughout. For concerts, you’ll often find floor access near the main concourse with ushers directing you to the appropriate entry points.

Multiple concession stands serve classic arena fare, soft drinks, and local Utah snacks when available, so you can grab a quick bite without missing the action. Merchandise kiosks pop up around the concourse for team gear and event apparel. Elevators and ramps provide access to all seating levels, and ATMs are available on-site if you need them. With stairs in some sections, comfortable footwear is a smart choice if you’ll be moving between concourse levels.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Clear bag policy in effect — bags must be clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC and not exceed 12" x 6" x 12". Small clutch bags are allowed.
• Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside food and beverages, large bags, professional cameras, laser pointers, noisemakers, and illegal substances.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry allowed once ticket is scanned, except in emergencies or with special permission.
• Service Animals: Only service animals as defined by ADA are permitted.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Arrive 60–90 minutes early to secure nearby parking in UVU lots and shorten your entry time.
• If you’re riding FrontRunner, confirm your late-night return schedule before the event.

Pre-Event Planning

Make a plan that fits your night. If you’re driving, aim to park early and enjoy a relaxed walk to the arena; doors typically open ahead of showtime so you can find your seats, grab concessions, and settle in. If you prefer transit, check UTA bus connections from Orem Central Station to UVU and build in a little extra time.

For big concerts and weekend games, expect a lively campus vibe — ideal for meeting up with friends before the event. The UVU campus area also offers scenic mountain views; time your arrival around sunset on clear days for a quick photo before you head inside. Review the UCCU Center seating chart and your section number in advance, so your group can coordinate an easy meeting point near your entrance.

If you’re traveling from Salt Lake City or further south, consider local dining along University Parkway or at University Place before you arrive. A simple plan — tickets downloaded, route set, and a quick pre-event bite — keeps the focus on the experience once you’re in your seats.

Accessibility

UCCU Center is ADA-accessible, with designated ADA parking near the entrance, accessible seating throughout the arena, companion seating options, and elevators/ramps to all seating levels. Assistive listening devices are available upon request at guest services, and limited mobility shuttles may be arranged by contacting the venue in advance.

Dining Options

Merchandise stands offer event and team gear, so you can commemorate the night with official apparel. ATMs are available on-site for convenience.
