They have done a great job with overall seating design and sound quality. What they haven't done is make events affordable to the average consumer. We recently attended the Adele concert and bought tickets directly through Ticketmaster with all their fees, etc.
We sat in the upper deck, meaning the level at the very top. Tickets were $750...each...
Now, part of this review will be for Caesars as well since they book the entertainers, I'm sure pay them very well and set prices with Ticketmaster. In general, since the pandemic, Caesars and their properties haven't been as consumer friendly to players and, unfortunately, they don't have to. On the weekend we visited, the casino was packed on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. No need to cater to players as they just keep coming. Just something for you to keep in mind if you are a player and are expecting comps or special treatment for your play (that is, unless you are a whale then you can most likely name your benefit).
So, back to the Colosseum. The two balconies are designed to overhang the back of the floor seats. So if you are sitting in the first couple of rows of either balcony, you have a great, direct view of the stage. The sound system is very well balanced and very enjoyable. This is our 4th event there and each entertainer played at different volume levels. At each of those levels, they were clear, easy to understand and always engaging with the crowd.
Like most concert venues, you are very limited on what you can bring it. Some events provide locking bags for your phone so you can't take pictures of videos. Others don't care and let you record as much social media content as you like.
All drinks must be purchased inside, they check inside purses so people have a harder time slipping items in.
Getting out, from the upper levels, does take some time. You are funneled down the stairs running into the level below as you descend. So, either leave a little early or just sit and enjoy the space while others slowly leave.
One hint, if you are in the upper level, when leaving go to the edges rather than the middle staircase. It will save you a little time getting to the first level.
Hope you are able to get great seats and your tickets don't cost you an arm and leg and...enjoy!!!
