Due south, that's where the stage at Apopka Amphitheater fronts, with the audience arrayed on the north side, and it's a workable layout for a Florida evening. Our engine scores a typical 7 PM show at 74 percent shaded overall; counting from 6 PM it drops to 49 percent, so early arrivers see the most sun.
Section 213 tops the list at 89 percent shaded, with 111 at 86 and 212 at 83. Pit 1 and sections 101 and 102 each measure 81. Those are good numbers for an open-air venue in central Florida, and they hold across the whole event window, not just after sunset.
Lawns 4 through 7 all come in at 63 percent shaded, the sunniest ground the engine tracks here. At showtime the sun sits about 17 degrees up in the west-northwest and sets at 8:26 PM, so lawn sitters get low-angle light through the early part of the show. And Florida heat doesn't quit when the sun drops: even an evening at Apopka Amphitheater is a warm, humid affair, and the water you carry will matter more than any seat choice you make. Sunscreen for anything before 7, hydration for everything.
