Arizona Financial Theatre location and entrance basics

Seating for AEW Maximum Carnage 2026
Seating configurations change by event, but the venue is typically divided into main (lower) seating, club (mid) seating, and balcony (upper) seating, with some events adding a floor or pit area depending on production. If you want the most accurate view of your section for this specific AEW setup, use the event’s interactive seat map on your ticketing page since staging can block certain sightlines.
Parking at Arizona Financial Theatre
The venue’s primary parking option is the Adams Street Garage (4th Avenue and Adams Street), with accessible spaces on every level and elevator access. Because downtown garages can fill quickly on event nights, many fans also reserve nearby parking in advance through third-party parking platforms, which can help lock in a spot before you arrive.
Is Arizona Financial Theatre cash or cashless?
Inside the venue, it is cashless: points of sale accept credit card, debit card, and mobile pay (such as Apple Pay or Google Pay). If you show up with cash, cash-to-card conversion is available at the upgrade podium.
Public transport to Arizona Financial Theatre
If you are using public transportation, Valley Metro Rail serves the Phoenix metro area and is a popular option for getting downtown without parking stress. For the theatre specifically, nearby service includes light rail (with a short walk from downtown stations) and bus routes that stop close to the venue footprint.
