Seating Guide

In the lower Loge Level (sections 1–22), sections 11–13, 1, 2, and 21 near center court are the most sought-after; the Club Level (107–115, 137–145) includes indoor lounge access. The upper Balcony Level (300s) offers classic Boston sightlines down onto the parquet.

Cheer Culture

The “Beat LA” chant dates to Game 7 of the 1982 Eastern Conference Finals (originally a Sixers-crowd chant) and became the defining cry of the Celtics-Lakers rivalry through the Bird/Magic era. The parquet floor itself is cherished lore alongside the championship banners.
