Choose your places online
Once you have found the event, it is time to choose where to sit, or in which area to stand. It's a step that sometimes makes you hesitant: categories, seating plan, different prices depending on location... Don't worry, it all follows a simple logic. This guide explains how to read the options, understand a seating chart and select the seats that suit you, with complete peace of mind.
Categories or seating plan: two ways to choose
Depending on the event, you will be asked to choose by 'T0' category 'T1' (for example 'Category 1', 'Pitch', 'Grandstand') or directly on a 'T2' seating chart 'T3' where you click on a specific seat. Both methods lead to the same result: reserving a place. Choosing by category is quicker; the seating chart gives you more control over the exact location. Take the time to look at what is on offer before deciding.
Choosing your seats, step by step
- 1
Locate the available categories
They often correspond to areas of the room, with a different price depending on the proximity of the stage or visibility.
- 2
Open the seating chart if offered
The map shows the location of the zones relative to the scene. The places still free are highlighted, the others appear grayed out.
- 3
Compare price and location
A closer place usually costs more. It's up to you to find the balance between budget and the desire to be well placed.
- 4
Check the number of seats side by side
If you come with several people, make sure that the selected seats are together, especially in numbered seating.
- 5
Select then confirm your choice
Click on the desired area or seats. The price updates automatically before adding to cart.
Understanding investment types
| Kind | What it means | To keep in mind |
|---|---|---|
| Numbered placement | You are assigned a specific seat | Ideal for being sure of your place and staying in groups of several people |
| Free placement | You settle wherever you want in the area | Arriving early helps choose a good location |
| Pit / standing | Seatless area, often close to the stage | Very popular for concerts; think about long-term comfort |
| Category without plan | A guaranteed area, with no specific seat displayed | The exact placement is sometimes done on site, on the big day. |
The placement type is normally indicated on the event page, before adding to cart.
Good reflexes before validating your places
- Check that the places are 'T0' together 'T1' if there are several of you.
- Look at the 'T0' price per 'T1' seat, not just the total, to compare areas.
- Take into account visibility: certain areas may have a partial view, this is sometimes specified.
- For a standing concert, consider 'T0' comfort 'T1' if the event lasts several hours.
- Once the places have been added to the basket, don't wait: they are reserved for a 'T0' limited time 'T1'.
What if my ideal places are no longer available?
This is common for high-demand events. Don't panic: look at neighboring categories, which often offer a very good compromise. Availability also changes over time, as unfinished baskets sometimes free up places. If nothing works right away, coming back a little later may be enough. The main thing is to choose a place that you really like, rather than booking in a hurry.
