    Hi trying to book for the show in belfast in November but cant figure out the best seats, dont mind the cost but whats best for an 8 year old? says on ticketmaster to go for tiered seating.
    He wants ringside (i dont mind paying but how do i get it) if possible
    Thanks

    ringside could be great or it could be awful, you might be 2 rows from the barrier or you might be 30 rows back with huge 6ft5 sweaty guys in front of you who decide to hold up posters pronouncing their loves of puppies every 2 seconds :mad: i have experienced both sides of the coin on numerous occasions at WWE events, the second alternative is not nice and you will see nothing all night

    go for tiered seating to be on the safe side as close to the middle of the arena as possible. 5 or 6 rows up and your view will be perfect and no stupid signs in your way

    Don't get ringside tickets with an eight year old have done that myself.Its a nightmare as previous poster said you can't beat the tierd seating,Especially for children

    I have sat in both the tiered and ringside (front row) in the Oddesey and unless you can assuredly get the front 3 or 4 rows with a younger kid, I would plum for the tiered seats. Given how quickly WWE tickets sell, I personally would go for tiered straight away as ringside floor seats will sell out in seconds. The tiered seats are easy to access and have plenty of gangways and there is plenty of concession/food/toilets close to hand if need be. :)

    Teired seating is defo the way to go. and if someone throws a sign up in your way dont hesitate to tell them to get it down. For me some eejit holds up a sign just as i am about to get a great action pic. Some punk kid kept doing that on me the whole 1st half at one of the wwe shows in the point. When he went to buy sweets at the interval i nicked his sign so i had no problems for the second half!:p:D Either the kid was bad at spelling or his parent who knows nothin about wrestling made it. It said "Go John Xena!":eek:

    I hope you and your kid have a good time. you never forget your first wwe event. You should keep an eye out for any indy shows in your area. see how they compare to your wwe experience.

    Right - so just tell him to put his stupid sign down...the same way you did for the whole 1st half of the show?

    The kids usually love them, but some fans get more critical as they get older. I've never had a bad time at a local show though, and the children have always looked like they had a great time

    well up norths theres pro wrestling ulster and in south is IwW. IwW are great and they have had shows in the north.

    Hi
    We got the tickets today North Tier, Row Q was the best we could get, guy in ticketmaster said I may be able to get better ones on ebay nearer the time and sell these on again, but my boy is just thrilled to have TICKETS AT LAST!
    Will look into the IwW shows too, sounds good that kids enjoy them
    Thanks very much for advice

    Stick with those seats - you will have a great view from there. I always go for tiered seating when I bring nephews etc and its always in around that area (row J-R area). They see everything thats going on. I went to the last Raw in Belfast with my brother - row B in the tier - the seats were awful - couldn't see a thing. I Have row J this time, so the view should be much better in November.

    Tip - if you are on a tighter budget for Raw etc. in Belfast when tickets for future events come on sale - go for the £27.50 seats in the West tier. Perfect! You are very close to the entrance for getting pics and you get a great view of the ring.
