Emirates Stadium Seating Plan: Best Seats, Views and Prices by Stand

The Emirates holds 60,704 fans in the middle of North London. It opened in 2006 and, unlike a lot of older English grounds, the views all around the stadium are good. Where you sit still changes your day, though. Here is what you need to know before you buy.

Emirates Stadium seating plan

The Emirates has four main stands: the North Bank, the East Stand, the West Stand and the Clock End to the south. Each splits into a lower and an upper tier, with Club Level and executive boxes in between. Away fans sit in the lower tier of the south-east corner.

On our listings the ground is split the same way: along the pitch means the East and West Stands, and behind the goal means the North Bank and the Clock End, each in a lower or upper tier.

The best seats at the Emirates, stand by stand

North Bank Lower: best for atmosphere

This is where Arsenal's most vocal supporters sit. On a Champions League night or a North London Derby, the atmosphere here is as good as anything in English football. The lower tier keeps the sound in, and you feel the crowd around you.

Best for: die-hard Gooners, first-timers who want the full experience, European nights
Note: it is officially a seated stand, but don't expect to stay in your seat for long.

West Stand Upper: best views in the ground

If you want to watch the tactical side of the game, the shape, the press, who is making the runs, the West Stand upper tier is the place. You are raised along the long side of the pitch, which gives you the whole picture from end to end. The upper tier behind the goal gives similar height, but the long side is the better view.

Best for: tactical watchers, anyone who wants a clear sightline
Upper tier tip: aim for the middle rows, not too high and not too close to the front.

Clock End Lower: best for the North London Derby

The Clock End turns it up for the big games, and nothing brings that out more than Spurs coming to town. You are right behind the goal, close to the action, and when Arsenal attack that end it gets loud fast.

Best for: derby days, fans who want to be close to the goal, atmosphere over sightlines.

East Stand Lower: a calmer matchday

The East Stand is the calmer side of the ground. It is not quiet, but the crowd tends to be more mixed: families, first-timers and supporters who want to watch the game without standing through most of it. The views from the lower tier are solid.

Best for: families, first visits, anyone who wants a relaxed day.

Club Level: best for premium views

Club Level sits between the lower and upper tiers and gets you the best of both: high enough to see the whole pitch clearly, close enough that the game feels immediate. The seats are wider and the whole day is an upgrade. Tickets here are limited and priced to match, but if you are making a day of it, it is worth a look.

Best for: a premium day out, comfort, the best views in the ground.

What each stand costs

Prices change with every fixture, so we don't print them here. Our Arsenal ticket prices page shows today's cheapest seat along the pitch, behind the goal and in hospitality for the next home game, with fees included, and how each match's price has moved. It is updated every day from our own listings.

Quick tips before you buy

• North London Derby and Champions League nights go fast. These are the games that show what the Emirates can be. Book as soon as they go on sale.
• Arsenal vs Man City and Arsenal vs Liverpool are the other games that go quickly. Set your alerts.
• Behind the goal is often the cheapest way in. Check the price page before you pick a stand.
• The front rows can catch the weather. Every seat is under the roof, but when rain blows in at an angle the first few rows on the open sides get wet.
• Give yourself extra time getting there and back. Arsenal tube station on the Piccadilly line gets very busy after a game. Finsbury Park is a slightly longer walk but gives you the Victoria line and National Rail too.
