I push my husband in a wheelchair. he has had back surgery and brain surgery. but he is also nearly blind now but has some vision. in the days of the GAC he would get a stamp to sit in the front for shows. last time we went to see a band they were handing out wristbands for Annual passholders. for reserved seating.
wheelchair seating at the back is way too far for him to see anything. do we speak to a CM at the entrance to be sat in the front so he can see something?
 
Talking to the CM there is your best bet for accommodation he would need. He will have to transfer out of his chair for a closer set if one is open

They have spots at the end of the aisle for wheelchairs. OP, your best chance of getting one of these is to get in line very early and be one of the first people in there to get a close seat since if someone is using all of the spots, they are not going to kick them out. Plus at the concerts, they are not really like a show. It is just the singers up there and you can hear them fine everywhere.

Thanks we do like to see the performers. No show? You should have seen( and heard) Davy Jones... boy did he put on a show!

Yeah, I go for the food and wine fest every year. I do like 38 special. I might be weird but I like listening to them, but it kind of creeps me out watching these 60 year olds bouncing around up there. LOL Although Billy Ocean is a bit entertaining.

There are multiple wheelchair/ecv spots throughout the amphitheater. The closest are about seven rows back from the stage. People who have the dining package will get first shot at them. Then the next set of spots is about halfway back, plus more at the very back. In November we saw Kris Allen at Eat to the Beat and were able to park in a center spot in that seventh row. For one song he walked out on the apron stage section and sat on the steps. Another song he came out to the same area and had an audience member sing along with him. Very close to us. And very cool.
