There are dinner packages but we've never used them. We just go and sit at the American pavilion and wait until the standby line has been let in. Then we go and get seats after that. We've never been shut out although all the concerts have been full, if that makes sense. Get there about 1/2 hour before the show, wait until most of the crowd has been left in (go to the right side of the theatre as you are looking at the stage), and then pick out the seats remaining. There really aren't that many bad seats.
