Amazing staff working. The door staff helped explain the what's and coat staff was on point. Great time and greatest show ever--Conner Price. Out of this world's sound system setup for our concert but that place is built with its natural acoustics it seems. Can't wait to check out other venues to come. Truly excited! It was one of my favorite musicians for my first time there.

Underworld was the band I saw there. Had a great time. Wish the speaker system was a bit beefier. But still everything sounded really good. The space was really comfortable and the staff were really nice.

One of the coolest experiences we’ve ever had! Love ARIZONA and we’re so glad to get to see them here. There’s no assigned seating or area, so I recommend arriving early; the earlier you get there the closer to the stage you get. There’s a bar area for purchasing drinks, and there is seating there if people need it. It’s a separate area though, so kids are ok to come right up to the stage area. Depending on if you want merch or not, I’d also arrive early to make sure you get the size you want. The parking is in a lot behind the venue, and cost about $20 for the evening. Parking attendants made it super easy to pay, and at the end of the night there isn’t any checkout process, you can just leave the lot. It’s a cool space, the light show was amazing, so whoever was in charge of that, kudos! If I could stress anything, wear shoes that are comfortable for standing and don’t wear a jacket, it gets HOT!

We visited for a concert March 2025. The venue got very hot with little ventilation. At one point a person fainted and they stopped the show calling for security. They had to call several times at it didn't seem the venue knew what to do - took minutes to get up there. We experienced someone next to us light up a cigarette (pre-show) and security didn't seem to notice or care. When we returned to our car the window was smashed. Not a safe area. We wanted to ride light rail but walking nearly a mile to the stadium stations at night was concerning. I'd really prefer other venues for future shows and would only return in rare exceptions.

Great venue for music. We walked from the ferry terminal easily. Gender neutral restrooms.

Great lighting! The audio here is pretty good as well. You get medium sized bands that come and play here of all genres. Staff is always friendly.

Great venue. Lots of open standing space for a large crowd. Good floor plan for movement between areas. There's a small section of table top bar seating for those over 21. Large standing section in the bar with great view of the stage. Bathrooms are spacious, well lit and very clean. ADA seating for disabled patrons is really good. Just chairs, but right on the elevated bar rail facing the stage for a perfect view of the stage; not shuffled off to the back or side like many places. Acoustics are pretty solid too. Overall one of the better places in Seattle to catch a concert. Will gladly visit again.

Friendly and helpful staff. That is uncommon for a venue this size. The fast access gets you under a roof faster, but access to the stage is about at the same time, so perhaps not worth the extra coin unless it's raining. Great venue, I'll be back.
