Best seat categories for The Hundred
🔊 Best atmosphere — behind the bowler's arm, lower tier
Straight sightline down the pitch — the best view of pace and swing. The loudest, most engaged ends.
👁️ Best overall — side-on, slightly elevated
Mid-tier, square of the wicket. Reads the whole ground, tracks every boundary, strong atmosphere.
⭐ Premium — pavilion / hospitality
Lord's Pavilion or the Oval's premium stands — padded seats, bars and the best service.
💳 Best value — upper tier, square
High, square-of-the-wicket seats. Cheaper, and the elevation actually helps you read the game.
Lord's — where to sit (London Spirit)
Grand Stand & Mound Stand, lower-to-mid tier
✅ Recommended
Square of the wicket with a clean view of the whole ground and the big screen. The Grand Stand gives you the iconic Lord's view back toward the Pavilion. For atmosphere, the Compton and Edrich Stands at the Nursery End get loudest during The Hundred.
💡 The Mound Stand's tiered arches give a great square view at a friendlier price than the Pavilion — one of the best-value spots at Lord's for white-ball cricket.
The Pavilion
⚠️ Heritage trade-off
Iconic and steeped in history, but it sits directly behind the bowler's arm at one end — a fantastic cricketing view, though the dress code and members' rules apply for parts of it. For a first Hundred visit, a Grand Stand seat often delivers more for the money.
⚠️ Some Pavilion areas have a dress code and are members-only — check exactly what your ticket covers before buying.
Kia Oval — where to sit (MI London)
Peter May Stand & JM Finn Stand, lower-to-mid tier
✅ Recommended
Side-on to the pitch with a clear view across the square and the gasometer skyline. The Oval has one of the best white-ball atmospheres in the country — the lower tiers get you into the heart of it.
💡 The JM Finn Stand houses the Family Zone (Level 2) — the right choice if you're bringing kids to an MI London game.
Deep corner & lower-front-row seats
⚠️ Sun & angle
The Oval bowl is relatively flat at the front, so very low seats can lose sightlines behind the boundary boards. Sun exposure also matters for the afternoon women's game — west-facing stands catch the sun longest.
⚠️ For the early afternoon fixture, a slightly elevated or shaded seat beats a low front-row seat in direct sun.
⚡ The Hundred is a different watch to a Test
The Hundred is fast, loud and built around boundaries and the big screen. Unlike a Test match — where you settle in side-on for the session — you want a seat that catches the atmosphere, the music between balls, and a clear line to the big screen for replays and the score. Slightly elevated, square-of-the-wicket seats deliver all three. Both London grounds host double-headers, with the women's game preceding the men's, so you get two matches on one ticket.
Frequently asked questions
Where do London's Hundred teams play?
London Spirit play at Lord's, and MI London (formerly Oval Invincibles) play at the Kia Oval. Both grounds host double-headers, with the women's game before the men's.
What are the best seats for The Hundred in London?
Slightly elevated, square-of-the-wicket seats at either ground — the Grand Stand or Mound Stand at Lord's, or the Peter May and JM Finn Stands at the Oval. They balance a clear view, big-screen access and atmosphere.
Is Lord's or the Oval better for The Hundred?
Lord's wins on heritage and occasion — and hosted Finals Day in 2026. The Oval often has the edge on raucous white-ball atmosphere and ticket availability. Both are excellent; it comes down to what you value.
Do I get two games on one ticket?
Yes — every Hundred match day is a double-header, with the women's game preceding the men's at the same venue on the same ticket.
Are premium or hospitality seats worth it?
Standard square-of-the-wicket seats often deliver similar views to premium at a fraction of the cost. Hospitality is worth it if the full experience — bars, dining, padded seats — is the priority.
