We have no information about this atm.

Hello,

I am trying to choose between LA and San Francisco and it looks like the venue in San Francisco doesn't have any seats. Is this correct or am I missing something? I think about taking my two kids with me, so having a seat is important. Thank you in advance for any insight you can share about the venue.

Hey nvk!

 

You are correct, there is no real seating for SF. The Fillmore is all general admission standing. It is an open ballroom.

 

The only seating would be at the bar or a few tables on the upstairs balcony which are all first come first serve. ( warning,  I have seen the balcony closed as vip only so it’s not a guaranteed option ) 

 

I love the Fillmore but the no seats is hard this time because my mom really want to see Mika this time around. But she really can’t go without a place to sit. I’m hoping the balcony will be open for her.

Thank you, BangBangLou, for responding. Just standing with two kids wouldn't be fun, so as much as I would like to revisit San Francisco, we are going to LA this time. I hope you'll be able to secure a seat on the balcony for your mom!

Yeah it's a cute venue - go there often. Welcome everyone to SF who is visiting! Can't wait to meet you all. Never have seen Mika but have been a fan through the years. Does he usually meet fans either before or after from your experience? I read the section on here for Meet and Greet and surprised he isn't offering one. Usually events here have those as an option. Sad

Mika gives his time to his fans when he's in the mood for it (after the show when he leaves the venue), and not because people pay for it - I'm glad he doesn't take money for M&Gs, that's not him. Even the planned M&G's mostly get organized just the day of the show, even if *we* try to plan in advance... he feels like it - we get one, he doesn't - we don't. It may seem random, but I prefer it this way because then I know he does it because he wants to and not because he has to.

Hi, there.

 

I've received the ticket today and found seat number on my ticket.

It's a standing only venue, so I wonder if we have to line up in numerical order to enter - or on a first come, first served basis as usual?
