The Woodlands Pavilion had its first guest on April 27, 1990 originally providing 3,000 reserved seats and room for 7,000 guests on a sloped grass lawn. In 1994, seating was expanded adding 1,900 new, uncovered reserved seats, and 1,100 on the lawn. The 2001 season opened with a larger lawn area bringing the total capacity to nearly 17,000 concert goers.
Hastened by Mother Nature in 2008, Pavilion seating capacity was increased by some 2,000 seats along with a larger fiberglass-fabric covering covering a small portion of the lawn seating area. Thanks to Hurricane Ike striking the Houston area in 2008, the planned upgrades were added early. The $9.5 million renovation and expansion project included 2,000 additional reserved seats canopy extensions to cover all reserved seats. The reserved seating area now consists of 6,387 seats. Sections 101, 102 and 103 (orchestra level / lower level). Sections 104-111 comprise the mezzanine level (upper level). Lawn capacity is approximately 9,653 for a maximum capacity of 16,040 patrons.

Pavilion Seating
The Woodlands Pavilion had its first guest on April 27, 1990 originally providing 3,000 reserved seats and room for 7,000 guests on a sloped grass lawn. In 1994, seating was expanded adding 1,900 new, uncovered reserved seats, and 1,100 on the lawn. The 2001 season opened with a larger lawn area bringing the maximum capacity to just over 16,000 patrons.
Obstructed View Seats
The Pavilion has "obstructed view" seats in the highest numbered seats in Sections 106 and 108, and in the lowest numbered seats in 107 and 109. The obstruction is relatively minor, however, and some people find that these seats can be among the best seats in the house, as they are typically offered at a great price.

Seat Number Explanation
For all reserved rows, seat numbers start with number one (1) from the left side of each section (if you are looking toward the stage) and count up moving to the right of that section. Since each subsequent row moving away from the stage is longer than the previous row, the highest numbered seat varies for each row. When the pit is offered as reserved rows, they are designated 1 through 6, with row 1 as the front row.
Reserved Sections 101-111
Rows are designated A through Z, excluding I, O and U, and continue with AA through HH in sections 101-103. Row A is the front row and Row HH is the back row of these three sections. For sections 104-111, Row A is the front row and Row W is the back row.
