About Levi's Stadium
Levi's Stadium seats about 68,500 across a lower bowl (100s), two premium club/suite levels on the west sideline (200s and 300s), and an upper deck (400s). The best seats for comfort are on the shaded west side; the east-side lower bowl and the 400 level are notorious for brutal afternoon sun. Lower-bowl sideline seats near midfield are the best overall view, while the upper deck is the value play. The venue also hosts college football, major concerts, international soccer and hosted a Super Bowl.
A modern open-air stadium known for its sustainability features, including a green roof and rooftop solar panels, and an asymmetric design that stacks the premium suites and clubs on the shaded west sideline. Because of its orientation, the east side and much of the lower bowl bake in direct afternoon sun, a defining quirk of the venue.

Seats to avoid & obstructed views
East-side lower bowl and low sun-facing rows: Direct, relentless afternoon sun and heat with no shade for much of the game.
Top rows of the 400 level end zones: High, steep and distant with a flattened end-on angle.
Field-level end-zone corners: Sightlines run down the length of the field, making deep plays harder to read.
Behind-stage sections for concerts: Stage and sound face away and views are often curtained off.
Accessibility & companion seating
Levi's Stadium provides ADA wheelchair and companion seating on every level, bookable through the 49ers ticket office so staff can place fans by need, including shaded options. Elevators, accessible transit drop-off and accessible restrooms and concessions serve all concourses.
Where: Accessible platforms are located at the rear of the lower bowl, along the club levels and at the upper-deck entrances.

Getting there
Transport
Levi's sits in Santa Clara next to California's Great America; VTA light rail stops adjacent to the stadium and Caltrain connects from San Francisco and San Jose to nearby shuttle links. Drivers use the surrounding Silicon Valley lots, and gameday traffic on Tasman Drive can be heavy.
The area
The stadium is in a business-park area of Santa Clara in Silicon Valley, next to the Great America theme park and near tech campuses rather than a dense entertainment district. Downtown San Jose and San Francisco are both a drive or transit ride away.
