Cow Palace Arena & Event Center

American street fast food festival. This is an analogue of the European season of booths with street food, sausages, a variety of beer, mulled wine, grog and attractions (carousels, swings, slides, fear rooms and much more). And at this festival, fast food prevails, very little beer (perhaps Christmas festivals will have mulled wine, but yesterday it was cold and it would be very appropriate to take mulled wine). I liked the place where the festival is held - such a cozy and nice area between the hills. We do not recommend taking grilled oysters - burnt and only sprinkled with parmesan. other sauces, in general, kill the concept of "oyster". A set of 12 oysters - $ 47 thrown away. Delicious deep-fried squid, Japanese waffles with filling and everything else is also very good. Convenient logistics public transport. Many tents with jewelry, clothes. I'll give it a 4. I recommend visiting for a good mood.

Very old but very cool. Huge indoor space, tons of parking outside. The staff was friendly and seemed to really care about what they do. The bathrooms and facilities worked but are definitely dated and older. Also, given the fact that there was millions of livestock in and out of this building for many decades it didn’t seem to smell weird or anything like that. Also also, it is very cool that Elvis and the Beatles both played here. The Beatles played their first live show in America at the Cow Palace. The acoustics inside were ok, good, but not great. I would be very curious to see a full sized/ big scale / sold out concert here.

Cow palace hosts a lot of events, including Xmas events, etc. Im reviewing the foodieland for 2024 ❤️ for a first timer. I learned a lot, was it worth it...? Maybe... good quick dates, quick curiosities, & at times overhyped people say. luckily cow palace has good parking expensive but atleast they have space. What I learned is that go in groups shoot make sure go in groups because each car is $20 its probably more this year. Then there's an entrance fee of $8 each! Imagine going alone that $28+ could've been your first meal 😔 😟 🙁! Either way, first timer, why not. Walking towards the venue, prep yourself, wear comfortable shoes & good warm jackets! It gets cold, especially towards closing! There's a live band too, so it's loud! Prepare to wait over an hour for your overpriced food choices. So plan ahead research & see what you wanna try! Come hungry! Expect to tip because it's automatic back then. The most affordable food was desserts 🍨 of $12. The rest is $18 to $40+, not including tip. Roughly with my friend we spent about $200. 7/10 pretty good 👍 just prep & research! Definitely go for the ones that's not so common, like the multi flavor oysters & the bbq bone marrow & for the drinks definitely the mini vitroleros stands !!!

I came for Dreamstate in April of 2025. The venue is advertised as being close to public transit but getting here from Bayshore Caltrain is silly. The station is <1 mile from Cow Palace actual distance, but the road layout means you have to walk 1.8 miles to actually get there. I don't understand why the big field of trash next to Bayshore station is not converted into public space - it's hideous and takes 30 minutes to walk around. Anyways, I thought the venue was good. The entrance was well-organized and my ticket was checked in seconds. The security check was just for show, they weren't even paying attention. Bathrooms were kinda sketch, but the overall vibe was fun and organized - with merch, food, safety, and water available for attendees. I liked the lights and lasers! I'll come back next year!

Hi family. We came to the passion to profit conference right here at the cow Palace. Shout out to the cow palace for a beautiful atmosphere and shout out to small business development center for a great event.

My experience at the Cow Place Arena in Daly City/San Francisco was AMAZING 👏🏼 🤩. Parking was $45.00, and it was next to the venue. The first stop was to have my ID checked and then get in the fast-moving line. Then I went through security, which had upgraded technology, and we received our pit bracelets just in case we wanted to be in the pit, and in the arena, I went. It was clean, plenty of restrooms, and concession stands. The pit was large with access from just about anywhere and plenty of seating. I went to an EDM festival to see Peekaboo and Rezz. The music was so great, and Rezz had the largest screen that I have ever seen. It was round, and it was a porthole. The graphics and lights were AMAZING! 💯 The Cow Palace was the perfect place for this EDM, and I will never forget my experience at that venue 🤎

My three year old and I had a great time at the Reptile Expo. Parking was easy, plenty of space at the event and we finished our day by having lunch there. The Reptile show was family friendly and had tons to look at. As a local I will always love coming to events at the cow palace!

They host special events there. Right now there is Charles Dickens Christmas going on every weekend until about 12/22. Online tickets only. The event is super fun. You will feel like stepping into 1870s…There are charming performances going on in set up theaters, food and drinks are available for purchase. Some tastings have to be pre-ordered online as they sell out and you can’t purchase them on the spot
