This is a very large performance venue, with slightly more than 2000 seats. Some seats are good, some have poorer views of the stage because of distance and lack of a steep pitch on the lower level. The best seats on the ground level (orchestra) are center front, back to about row U, the more central 8 or so seats in the right and left sections. The first balcony, sometimes shown on seating charts as the loge, has excellent seats in rows A and B. The good seats are more expensive for most performances.
Parking is a challenge. I'd suggest arriving early, particularly when fall and spring semester classes are in session, and paying to park in the Euclid parking structure, which is about 100 yards from Macky. If you plan enough time there are numerous fast casual restaurants in nearby University Hill where you can eat without adding too much to your walk. If you have mobility needs definitely plan ahead, study the venue guidelines on its website, and any information that comes with your tickets, call CU parking at 303-735-7275 to verify your plan, and still be prepared to traverse some distance.
CU has a centralized ticketing resource online where you can find event schedules and purchase tickets. You can enroll for email alerts for the Artist Series and for some other performances.
