Lyric Theatre, QPAC

The Lyric Theatre, QPAC, can accommodate around 2,000 guests spread across three main sections: the Stalls, Balcony 1, and Balcony 2.  The venue has a typical horseshoe shape, offering clear views of the stage from all sections. That said, some seats offer better views than others. 

Stalls 

• The Stalls, the largest section of the theatre has a cross-over section after row N to ensure seamless access to seats located toward the end. 
• Wheelchair-accessible seats are available in rows N and W in the Stalls.

Balcony 1

• Seats in Balcony 1 from rows A to J angle towards the stage, which may result in less optimal views.
• Wheelchair-accessible seats are available in row Q.

Balcony 2

• Rows A to I in Balcony 2 taper toward the stage from both sides at an angle, so you may not get the best views from here. 
• Rows J, K, and L in Balcony 2 since they provide unobstructed views of the stage.
