KINTEX Hall 9 and Hall 10: The View From Your Block
Halls 9 and 10 in KINTEX Exhibition Center 2 are the same room: 132 × 99 m with a 15 m ceiling. All four concert seat maps we read for them (LANY, Benson Boone, Khalid, Novelbright) fill the front of the floor with standing; three put reserved seats at the very back, and two of those call them tiered. This page moves that plan into the official room — about 16–97 m to the stage from the standing blocks, 102–120 m from the tiered seats.
In the Hall 9/10 standing blocks, the person in front matters more than the distance. The floor is flat, so a 170 cm fan behind a 175 cm fan loses both the stage deck and the performer’s face behind that head, in every standing block. What changes is distance: the blocks by the centre aisle are about 9 m closer than the ones by the walls.
The tiered seats at the back are the opposite trade. Each row sits higher than the one in front, so on the numbers you see over a seated person to the deck — but at more than 100 m, faces are not readable with the naked eye. If the row in front stands, you lose the deck here too.
One thing we could not pin down is which wall the stage goes on. Scaled by the pillar in the middle of the room, the maps fill the full width with the stage on a 99 m wall, but a stage on the 132 m wall does not contradict them either. This page assumes the 99 m wall and widens its ranges to match. Your block is whatever your show’s own seating map says.

The hall outline is the official inside dimension; the stage and blocks are a representative plan that every show redraws. The stage is drawn at the top.
Vertical is to scale; horizontal is compressed. Read this for what blocks the line, not for distance.

- If the person in front stands, the stage deck goes out of sight. What you keep is the artist above it and the screen.
- With them standing, the bottom of the screen goes too.

Frequently asked questions
Standing or reserved seats at KINTEX Hall 9/10 — which sees better?
Standing is closer (about 16–97 m); the tiered seats see better. On the flat standing floor your view depends on whoever is in front of you, while the back seats, at about 102–120 m, see over a seated row. Want the performer big? Front of the standing floor. Want the whole stage in comfort? Tiered seats.
Do Hall 9 and Hall 10 differ?
Not as rooms — both are 132 × 99 m with a 15 m ceiling. What differs is the stage and blocks each promoter builds, so this page treats the two halls as one representative layout.
Does the pillar in the middle of Hall 9/10 block the view?
Halls 9 and 10 each have one pillar, about 2.3 m across, in the middle of the room. The published seat maps put the sound desk just in front of it and keep the space around it as aisle. If your row is directly behind it, part of the stage may be hidden — check whether your show’s map marks it.
