“My cousin and I came here to see JLo at the Colosseum and overall had such a fun night. Getting in was a little chaotic though. We were told we could get in any line but once we got there it didn’t really feel organized. Everyone looked confused and there wasn’t much staff directing traffic so it was kind of a figure it out yourself situation. There was a DJ before the show started who kept the energy up. I’ve always liked this venue because it’s more inti…”
“Enjoyed the opening Blake Shelton concert. Ole Red and all of the best oldies. The acoustics lighting and stage videos really added to the experience. Plenty of places to grab cocktails beer etc. Seating was comfortable lots of attendants to assist.”
“Spent New Year’s Eve here with Jennifer Lopez—fantastic show! A+ Pros: 1. Spacious venue with great acoustics. 2. First balcony seats offered a clear, unobstructed view. 3. Comfortable seating with plenty of space. 4. Show lasted about 2.5 hours, delivering full value for the price. 5. Tickets were reasonably priced at around $200. 6. Great song selection with a fun New Year’s countdown mid-show. Cons: 1. Drinks were overpriced and had to be purchas…”
“Saw Josh Groban and I think he was having so much fun with all the cool things the theater has for artists. The show was so much fun and I enjoyed the concert very much.”
“Decent venue. Both show that I have seen there the doors opened later than advertised creating longer lines and a rush at the concession stands as everyone tried to get drinks before the show. Lines moved at a decent speed. View was great. Shows were great. Seats are narrow. Larger concert goer beside me struggled to get in out out of the seat. I bumped againt the cupholders that stuck out beyond both armrests.”
