Out and About: The Pageant
March 27, 2016
First, in terms of the accommodations, The Pageant seats 1,000 to 2,300 people depending on the event. Every ticket that is sold is general admission, or more commonly called, GA. There are, however, seats offered for people over the age of 21. But, no seat is further than 10 feet from the stage.
Every person has a full view of the stage wherever they are sitting in the venue. The Pageant allows fans to be a part of the event rather than watching it from afar. It depends what you prefer but being in a smaller room with people surrounding a person shoulder to shoulder makes a person feel like they are apart of something huge. It doesn’t feel like you are on the outside looking in, like a person was sitting in high level at the Scottrade Center.
It makes an individual feel like they have contributed to the craziness instead of feeling apart of the background. Some people may prefer to sit in actual seats because there isn’t a constant struggle of finding a spot in a crowded mob of people, but the advantages to being up close is worth the struggles. Being so close, you can feel the vibrations and the beat of the music.
Overall, The Pageant finds a way to include everyone in a once in a lifetime involvement. You can find out who the upcoming performers are and ticket prices on their website, http://www.thepageant.com/.

[Families] actually having the opportunity to have their kids on the field with us is the most important aspect,” Ben Lundt said.](https://lancerfeed.press/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/IMG_6823-1200x800.jpg)
