10 year old daughter has asked to see Little Mix for her birthday.

I have NEVER attended a pop concert in my life (do the cool kids still call them 'pop concerts'?!)

Unfortunately, tickets have been on sale since September and all that is left is the hugely inflated prices :(. As this is a one off we have purchased 2 x tickets (wife and daughter) from Stubhub. We have paid double face value and have tickets for:

Floor B, Row 13.

Looking at the Arena floor plan, these appear to be good seats. Looking at the Arena floor plan:

I think my seats are here:

BUT.............The Stubhub website shows this view for the tickets, which seems to be another block behind where i think the tickets are:

Anyone know the arena who can help?

Lastly, is the 'Floor' seated? As i said, my daughter is only 10 and if people are standing then she isn't going to see the show :(

Like i said - we have never been to a concert before and am totally naive!

    I don't know the venue as we are based in London, but looking at the detailed plan for the venue, Block B is centre stage and 13 rows from the front of the stage. It looks like an all seated event (usually if the floor is standing in any venue I have been to then they have an age 14 restriction) What has happened when I have gone to the London O2 with dds is that everyone stands up to dance in their rows (and scream) and as it is level you can get taller adults in front, however the stage is quite high so the band is eaisly seen.

    There is seating on the floor. There are usually screens too, which helps.

    Every time I have ever been there has never been standing - even on the floor in front of the stage!

    It may well have been, I didn't go to see take that but, given the op has tickets which have a seat number I would assume that this will be an all seated event.
