Ally Pally darts seating plan: tables vs tiered seats
Ally Pally’s 2026/27 seating choices are floor tables, raised tiers and 501 Club hospitality.
Start with the published ticket category and price, then choose the session that works for your party.
At a glance
The view and atmosphere
Floor tables
The Table category places spectators on the arena floor. For friends who want a social base during the session, this would be our first option to compare.
Ask the seller to confirm the party’s allocation before arranging a group booking.
Tiered seats
Tiers provide an elevated overview of the arena. For the Great Hall move, PDC announced wider seats, additional legroom and a cup holder at every tiered seat.
We would weigh those comfort improvements alongside the price when choosing for a first visit.
501 Club
501 Club is the published premium hospitality category.
Compare the package inclusions with a standard seat before deciding whether the extra spend fits your evening.

Food, drink and toilets
Find the route to refreshments and toilets before settling into your place.
A tiered seat’s cup holder is useful for keeping a drink steady, but keep bags and coats clear of the path past your row.
Our advice is to keep both feet off tables and chairs, even during a big celebration.
Follow the stewards’ directions, and keep costume accessories low enough for the people behind you to follow the action.
Before paying for hospitality, read exactly what the seller includes in food and drink. Treat an ordinary table ticket and a 501 Club package as different purchases.
Who it suits
Your first visit
We would start with an early afternoon tiered seat if keeping the cost down matters most. Choose a floor table instead if sitting with your friends is the main attraction.
Check the offered viewing position and any steps before payment.
A group night
Set a per-person budget, settle on one session and ask how your party will be placed.
If exclusive table use matters, get that included in the booking terms rather than treating several seats as a whole-table reservation.
Bringing children
Start with the Family Area and choose a session around the journey home. PDC requires the booking to include an under-18; an all-adult party should select another area.
Put any access needs to the seller before the rest of the group commits.
The Palace accessibility guide covers the separate questions about a suitable position, companion booking and route through the venue.

FAQs
What are the Ally Pally darts ticket categories?
The published choices are Table on the arena floor, Tier for an elevated arena view, and the premium 501 Club hospitality option.
What is different about the new Ally Pally tiered seats?
PDC’s Great Hall announcement describes wider tiered seats, added legroom and individual cup holders.
Compare those features with the floor setting when choosing your category.
How much cheaper are tiers than tables at Ally Pally?
On the published 2026/27 face-value chart, the saving is £15 or £20 per person for the same session. Seller booking charges are extra to those chart prices.
Are Ally Pally darts tables shared?
Before booking, ask See Tickets whether your allocation includes exclusive table use or seats alongside another party.
Have that answer in the booking terms if a private table is essential for your group.
Can you see the board from tiered seats?
Tiers are advertised with a view across the arena.
For a particular seat, ask the seller about the board angle and screen view; our first-visit preference is an affordable position with a suitable route in and out.
