Alamo Bowl at the Alamodome
Address: 100 Montana St, San Antonio, Texas, 78205 The Alamodome is located next to Sunset Station and a short walk from the Riverwalk, which is the heart of the entertainment district of San Antonio. The Alamodome makes up for the lack of amenities available at newer stadiums by providing great sightlines for watching a football game. The capacity of the Alamodome is approximately 66,000 college football fans. There are three levels inside the Alamodome, the 100 level, 200 level, and 300 level.
Alamodome 100 Level
The 100 level seats, or Plaza level, are closest to the field and provide some of best views of the game. There are typically 36 rows in each Plaza level section. The lowest rows are so close to the field that you can hear the conversations on the sideline. The highest rows in this level are situated underneath the overhang from 200 level and have TV monitors setup to watch replays since the scoreboard is blocked from view. Sections 130-138 are behind the Big 12 sideline. Sections 108-116 sit behind the Pac 12 bench.
Alamodome 200 Level & Suite Level
The 200 level is also known as the Club level and sit on a balcony slightly above the 100 level seats. There are only 6 to 10 rows in each section of the 200 level which is why it is one of the most desirable areas to sit within the Alamodome. The small sections mean no crowds in the concourse, which allows fans to access concessions and restrooms without waiting in line. The Suite level is located by the 200 level; please call TicketCity for information on suites at the Alamodome.
Alamodome 300 Level
The 300 level seats, or Upper level, is the top-level inside the Alamodome. The seats are further from the action on the field, but still provide nice sightlines. There are typically 28 rows in each Upper level section.
