The Magnolia

Went to see Alicia Villarreal, it was a nice spacious venue. Seats were comfy and being the 5th row is amazing, even the back too seats had a good view of the whole show. Staff was attentive to me and very friendly.

Great venue. Big enough to be fun and lively yet small enough to be intimate. No bads seats!

Great location, the only issue I have is the seats are a little small. I saw the Brian Wilson Band there ,had some issues with stage lighting (there was none) when the concert started.Other than that I would recommend 😉

Great venue, not too loud and every seat has a view. Did I mention seats? No more standing in the mosh pit! Saw the Led Zeppelin cover band Zosa!

Excellent venue, small, friendly staff, great outside patio area that serves food and cocktails, seats are large and comfortable, great views from any seat location.. Saw Robin Trower live in 1st row, upclose and personal, plenty of parking just steps from the venue.. I'll definitely return for future entertainment.. Big AlB Santee Ca ..

Great modern venue, plenty of space for easy entry and exit. Can take concessions to seat with you. Plenty of space to walk by people getting to your seat without stepping on toes. Great concession options.

So amazing! The effort and presence of the entire cast was so passionate. Stars are born. The venue, staff, and overall experience was prestine and beautifully intimate. A true gem shining so brightly in San Diego hailing from Down town El Cajon. The restaurants and culture easily reflected there too. Enjoy!

I love having a cool venue in east county. I actually grew up and performed at this venue back in the day when it was the El Cajon Performing Arts Center. I’ve always had a fairly quick entry past security. They usually have some type of gathering at least 30 minute before showtime in the courtyard area out front c. I’ve seen lots of different types of shows here. Very intimate theater.

The Magnolia is a great venue for concerts. No seat is a bad seat. And, the seats in the front are incredibly close to the stage. The venue is set up with movie theater/theatre seats so you're pretty comfortable if you're seating during the concert. I've been to two concerts here and had a great experience both times. Inside the venue you can buy drinks and hot dogs/pretzels. Outside the venue they had a food vendor which was quite mediocre. They could definitely improve on that part of the experience. The Magnolia is definitely a great choice for music performances!

This is my first visit to this venue and I must say I can't wait to see another artist and come back again. The facility was clean and well organized, seating was very comfortable, view of the stage, looked good from every seat, and what was remarkable was the space between the seat and the seat in front of you, which made it very easy for People to walk past you without you having to stand up and allow them to get by without stepping on your feet. I saw Robin Trower last night. At 80 years young, he is still a tremendously gifted guitar player, and I would urge anyone that likes his rock 'n' roll to definitely attend one of his upcoming events.

The Magnolia is a great venue. Parking is around the neighborhood or in the structure where the courthouse is and free. The seating is comfortable. I been seated in a couple of different areas and the view is always great. It's a smaller venue so not overwhelming. If you get a chance to go give it a try. It's worth a try. The only critique I have is in the ladies bathroom. While there a a number of stalls it's difficult to tell who is in one. Not all stalls were working on my last trip and the area to wait was short and hard to see if all were occupied. Overall I enjoy going to shows here.

Every seat on the house is a good seat! Acoustics are great! Comfortable, plenty of parking!

John 5 & Richie Kotzen concert at The Magnolia really rocked. The guitar playing was out of this world, and the drummer excellent. Aside from my ears ringing from the extreme volume, the concert was awesome!

Came here for the Mark Hoppus book tour. This is a venue on the smaller side compared to places like Viejas. It was easy to see Mark. Unsure how this would be for concerts but I would say it was perfect for a book tour/speaking event. Parking was easy (I prepaid) and it was easy getting in and out of the venue. No traffic. It's a little out of the way in San Diego but I would come here again. Food/drinks were easy to get. Place was clean and organized. The only thing I disliked about the place is how long the rows are. There should be a walking path in the middle so less people are walking by your seat and for safety reasons.

Great venue for smaller concerts in San Diego. So much easier than the large amphitheater venue. Pretty facility and comfortable indoor seating.

Very nice facility. Clean. Great appearance. Well maintenance. Pro staff. Just need to address seat sizes, cup holders too small, and ensuring adequate bathrooms during large full house events.

I really enjoyed this venue. There's plenty of parking, both free and paid. The staff was very friendly, and the interior is impressive. The VIP section offers comfortable seating, a private bar, and food service. However, the event management was poor. The speaker was scheduled to start at 7 PM, but didn't begin until 8 PM. They also delayed entry, leaving us waiting outside for a long time. The food is extremely overpriced--$10 for two tacos, $15 for nachos, $17 for a tall beer, and $6 for a bottle of water. Overall, it's a great theater, but it could be better organized with more reasonable pricing.

I got to see Morgan Jay this past Saturday and I had never been to The Magnolia, so I was excited to check it out. My husband dropped my friend and I off, but it looks like there is parking structure and plenty of public parking near the area. Getting through security was pretty fast and easy and everyone was so friendly and excited for us to enjoy our time. Megan and I had plenty of time to get drinks and food, I do want to say it is pretty pricey for a watered down margarita, but I thought that price for the nachos was pretty fair especially since it was packed with a lot of carne asada and they were pretty tasty, pretty sure it was $40 with tip. The Magnolia itself is really clean and organized, the women's bathroom has a free pads and tampons which is so nice and thoughtful, it should be like that everywhere! I wish though that the seats were a little more roomy, I felt like I couldn't put my drink in the drink socket without bothering my seat neighbor. Overall, when there is another great act here, I'd definitely book seats especially ones at the end.

First time going to The Magnolia, and went for a comedy show. There was offered paid premier parking, however we were able to find free parking on the street (thankfully, since it was a busy Friday night). I was pleasantly surprised to find out that our seating (row O) seemed to be a lot closer to the stage than it appeared to be online when we purchased our tickets. It seemed like such a huge crowd (judging from the initial line outside when we were all waiting to be let in), however once inside it didn't seem to be too packed. From where we were sitting, you could hear people shout out from the front row and even the very back row. Acoustics-wise this was conducive to a very engaging comedy show which worked for this comedian since his crowd work is always funny. However, reading from other people's reviews idk how this would play out for a concert. Passed on the food and drinks due to the prices. I think I saw a Modelo was $14+, maybe it was a tall can?

Didn't seem to have a bad seat in the house, went here for a comedy show, and it was completely packed. You would never have known, plenty of room between seats. I didn't end up getting snacks or drinks, but there were options there. Would definitely come back. We chose to park farther away, so we could have an easy out experience, I think parking close up could be difficult.

This is a pretty spacious venue as far as the sizing of it. Very clean. Place is pretty well kept. I will say theirs a lot of seating inside where the actual show is but not a good amount of spacing in between the aisle(s) of the seats. People kept kicking my seat during the show. When I would excuse myself to the restroom people would have to squish themselves sideways for me or others to get by. No elbow room between the next seat. Once the lights go out it's pretty hard to see where your going if you want to exit during the show for any reason and return. I would say they have a lot of snacks and drink options. Parking isn't too complicated their are several options close by.

First time here this year. Decent event area, and looked clean. Only one bathroom for men and one for women. Concession prices seemed high , but that's probably sadly the norm. I jusy went off the price for a water which was almost 8 dollars. Way too many people were coming and going constantly during the show. I don't know if there is any real way of fixing it, but damn it is distracting and very annoying. Also my feet kept getting stepped on each time someone needed to get through. Needs more space. Seats could be better for taller folks Parking was easy and there are some free areas. I wasn't sure where their actual designated parking was I might come here again, but would be more inclined to visit other venues first .

Modern clean, venue with comfortable seating and good parking. Went to see the Buena Vista Social Orchestra. Great musicians. BUT... the sound was ridiculously loud. This is an acoustically-designed theater where you could hear a classical pianist, folk singer, or listen to musical theater perfectly fine from any seat WITHOUT amplification. So why did they decided to mic everything and pump it through the sound system at the decibel level of a heavy metal band?!? Mind you, the audience for this kind of music isn't head-bangers in their 20's. 70% of the audience was over 35, 30% over 60. So why the acoustic overload? Besides being actually painful, it was so loud that any nuance or ability to distinguish between the different instruments became lost in a sonic blitz.

The Magnolia is a very nice comfortable venue with fantastic acoustics. We saw Ryan Adams here a week ago. Good show but he talked way too much between songs. Sorry dude, but I don't need your life story at a two hour concert which ended up near three hours with the monologue. But, very talented artist. Oh yeah, parking was $20 in the venue lot. However, you can find street parking and there is a free parking lot somewhere near.

My husband and I found out BTO was going to be performing the night before the concert. I had not been to this venue before and read the negative reviews and didn't expect much. Randy Bachman is 80 and I really didn't know what to expect of him either. They were great and Bachman still playing his Les Paul like a pro and included songs from The Guess Who. It was a great night. The venue was smaller than what I imagined and more intimate. I don't understand the complaints. I was comfortable but I am not a really big person. But there were bigger people all around me. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. BTO draws an older crowd and patrons were all courteous and decent. I didn't see any sloppy drunks around. The staff are all friendly also. It's a somewhat more intimate theater. I'm a SD native but lived in Boston for 19 years and the Magnolia is a gem to have in the SD area. The sound during the concert was perfect. It was rock so it was loud and the crowd was loud too. I thought the balance of sound was great.

I attended the Magnolia Theatre in El Cajon for Britton's Finest Beatles Tribute last night. What was up with the sound system? It seemed to me that there was almost constant loud feedback, making the music hard to enjoy. Also, it was annoying that between the warmup band and the long break before the main act, they didn't start until 90 minutes after the published start time. I've enjoyed concerts there quite a bit in the past, but between this experience and them canceling the Jonny Cash Tribute last weekend within 24 hours of the start, this is likely my last concert at the Magnolia. It's such a shame as the venue had been first class and the local restaurants enjoyable.

Had a wonderful experience there ! Concert was great , food was awesome and drinks were delicious. You can take everything to your seats ! Employees were very accommodating. Would definitely go again !

The venue itself was a lot better than I expected. This was my first time here and I was very pleasantly surprised. Parking was easy and a lot of free parking is available. The staff was friendly and helpful. We did try some of the food but it was really just ok. I would definitely come back for another show here.

Came here for a Gypsy kings concert this week and had the best time ever. ADA seating was requested and granted at the venue in the evening of. Although, i was initially told I would be seating in row H, they put me in row Q. The acoustics were fair, and i didn't have to wear ear plugs worrying about migraines starting or anything being triggered. The bathrooms were clean, and the parking plentiful for ADA parking mostly because i came 3 hours prior to the start of the event. Thank you for a great evening. If there is another opportunity to visit to watch my favorite band, if they weren't in OC, id come here any day!

A lot of bad Yelp reviews for this venue but our experience was very good. There is plenty of free parking all around the facility and if that is not a huge plus, I don't know what is. We parked in the huge (free) lot next to the police station and the walk to the theater was about 5 minutes. Getting through security was a breeze. There were plenty of people scanning tickets, too. We didn't get any food but the food at the taco stand outside the front doors looked terrific. They also have food and drinks inside the venue. The sound inside was very good. The place is also intimate enough where nearly every seat is a good one, with good views. As others have noted, there are only two aisles, one on each side. So if you are seated in the middle (like we were), it's a long walk to or from your seats. Another aisle in the center of the facility would have been nice but would also have eliminated a lot of seats (and extra revenue). I will say there was plenty of leg room, which is another huge plus, if you are sitting for two or three hours. Another reviewer correctly noted that the tickets state the door opening time and not the start time of the show. This is insane at if was done intentionally to get people to the venue early to buy more drinks, that is pure evil. I hope this wasn't intentional but this issue should be fixed. Signage inside could be better, too. It is not intuitive whether your seats are up the stairs or on the floor level, and the signs really do not help. Overall, it is not a perfect venue but the primary reason you are there is to see a good show, with good sound, with nice views, and quality seats. You get all that here. I wouldn't hesitate to return.

The Magnolia is a pretty decent Venue for watching Comedy Shows And Cover Bands to HeadLiners. Safe Parking Lot. Never had a problem with Security. There's usually more than enough parking spaces. 〰〰|Friendly Event Staff 〰〰|Food and Drinks are sold inside. 〰〰|Plenty of Restrooms to accommodate Tip: Even on a Summer Day or Evening the inside temperatures drop quite a bit with the AC on.

My first time visiting The Magnolia and it was absolutely perfect! There's a parking structure that made parking super simple and there was no extra fee. The security was super efficient and the lines for concession and bar never felt that long. They had a ton of draft and can options, as well as cocktails. Our seats were a couple rows away from the stage but we still felt so close, something about the way the seats are lower and the stage is wide, every seat has a great view. At intermission we went to get some popcorn and they gave us big one get one free. We had a lovely time and will be sure to visit more often in the future!

This is a nice venue with lots of great views from all seats. I went to go see comedian Sofia Niño de Rivera, and she was hilarious as always. I got row Z1 which was near the back, but I was still able to have a nice view. The seats were comfy and there are drink holders available. The only thing I didn't like was that the snacks and drinks were only available on the first (bottom) floor, so it made it difficult to go up and down the stairs. They did have options available in other floors but that consisted of having to pay for a VIP package of some sort, and that just wasn't worth it. Parking was available at the court house and we found a spot on the top level. The walk over was short and not bad at all.

I've been to this venue twice and have had lovely experiences both times! The first time I went was to see Pete Davidson. The venue is cozier than other venues, so it was cool to see a famous comedian so close and personal. The second time I visited was to see "The Nutcracker". The venue had special Christmas-themed cocktails and Nutcrackers for sale, which I thought were nice touches. There's ample parking outside of the venue. The venue itself is very clean. Any staff I've encountered are very friendly and welcoming. I love this venue and look forward to coming back here for future performances!

Nice place! Easy to get to, parking was free- inside was clean and nice. Venue felt nice and cozy. Lights were kind of annoying/blinding into the crowd before the show started. We also ordered a beer and were definitely served the wrong beer! (taps were switched). Prices could be cheaper for being in El Cajon loll but it's a music venue so that's how it is. About 13.25 for a beer and higher for mixed cocktails. Overall a nice time- would return!

Never knew about this venue. I caught a Tom Petty tribute band performance here. The place is well set up. They had a bar to purchase drinks, a taco stand outside, and per their website 1200 seats in the venue. The acoustics were pretty good here. My ears were ringing a bit after the concert but it wasn't too bad.

I recommend The Magnolia and would return. The acoustics are good, seating is good and the venue is located right in downtown El Cajon, close to bars and restaurants. We were, unfortunately, scammed by a company called TICKETS ONSALE. Make sure, when you buy your tickets, that you are not automatically directed TICKETSONSALE. We were able to get our tickets, after hours of negotiating by phone and online. I hope management of the Magnolia will warn customers about TICKETSONSALE.

Magnolia is running a scalpers only event for January 4. You have to purchase four tickets. Already the tickets are just reselling at a higher price. Obviously people are just going to scalp the Tickets so magnolia will make money and everybody else has to pay a premium to some stranger out there. I've never seen a theater do this.

5 Star and for so many reasons! Excellent parking-plenty of and close proximity. And it's free! Friendly staff, from the security out front, the check in staff, the vendors, food-drink and souvenirs, they were all absolutely delightful. Outside you'll find string lights, a set up with a Taco Stand, Carne Asada only, but very good, drinks and tables. Inside you'll find plenty of opportunity to purchase drinks and basic theatre style food like, popcorn, Bavarian pretzels, nachos, etc. as well as drinks non alcoholic and plenty of alcohol in a wide variety, something for everyone. Smaller auditorium style set up so good viewing no matter where you sit. I got front row cause I wanted the opportunity to meet Tanya Tucker and maybe get an autograph and I got both, as well as a shot of Tequila! She and her entourage are the absolute very best! They and Tanya gave an amazing, praise worthy performance! We thought the sound was perfect. Restroom availability and cleanliness is on point. I will go back and highly recommend.

I have mixed emotions about this venue. I recently saw Ray LaMontagne a bluesy, folk, country, amazing, singer, songwriter. Let me explain a little... Pros: The sound was pretty good. When he belted out some high notes and some loud spots you heard it all. (which will be a con later in this review) The seating was pretty good. I purposely picked out row seats because I saw that their was only one single row 50 seats long. Also, I was seated midway up the seating. Not too far and not too close. Leg room seemed like it was a little more than average. I didn't have to get up every time someone walked by which is normal anywhere else. Parking! The best ever! no fees and its close! Cons: The sound was pretty good. You hear too much! I could hear a loud clap or cough from across the theater. It is great is you have the right band for the venue. The bag check was lame. They had a 4" by 6" only rule. Not sure where or why but it was causing havoc with a lot of people. It was square and a lady had a round purse that went over the long length side and couldn't take it in because essentially, it was round. No common sense applied. Lastly, neither pro or cons: As usual, the drinks were crazy priced and the merchandise was slim. I don't blame the venue so much. Depending on the artist I wouldn't mind coming back to this place for some more live music.

The venue was outstanding, providing ample parking space and convenient drop-off facilities. Moreover, it offered an affordable experience without compromising on cleanliness.

We had the pleasure of seeing one of my favorite artists at The Magnolia Theatre on Sunday and what a wonderful venue and experience. Plenty of places to pick up a drink with minimal wait times or hassle. Very comfortable seats with ample leg room. The venue offers a nice VIP lounge with a private bar and free popcorn. Although we didn't eat anything there were a few options for some light snacks available and a taco truck just outside the doors where you could get a bite to eat. Overall, a really pleasant experience and not a bad seat in the house. Would absolutely recommend The Magnolia if you have an artist, comedian or other event being hosted there.

Tickets for the Pete Davidson show and was pleasantly surprised. I've never heard of The Magnolia. Although we had very close seats, just by viewing the venue, there really wasn't a bad seat in the house. Entering the venue was standard, nothing surprising, but exiting the venue was quite crowded due because of the size. All in all, if there was another show I wanted to see, I'd def come back. Parking was directly on the property which was full when I arrived so I found street parking directly in front of the venue.

The place is beautiful and the feeling you get is amazing. The show we saw there was great and all aspects were outstanding.

Our first time here and was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. They offered food and drinks before and during intermission. I seen people bringing drinks into the auditorium which I liked. Other places didn't allow that. We were there to see The Nutcracker and thought they did an incredible job! Perfect view from any seat because of the way it is set up. Sound is beautiful throughout. Will definitely be back here for more shows or concerts.

First time here in this theater. I usually watch shows at Civic Theater Downtown San Diego, but since Benise did not perform in San Diego. I was surprised they have fast line with $10 dollars extra, and the main line won't open 30 minutes prior to the show begins. People would wait outside, why can they let people in so they could purchase drinks instead of standing outside. In my opinion this is a bad idea for the concession stand

We went to this venue with low expectations due to the location. I will say we were pleasantly surprised! Be advised it is managed by Live Nation with concert venue rules. That being said, I recommend reading the website for a list of items you can bring into the venue. They have a full bar with hot dogs, snacks, and seasonal sweet treats. The seasonal items were From various local bakeries (some even baked In house). They were delicious. The drinks were yummy and they even offered some specials. The prices are average for concert venues. FYI they are a cashless venue so bring a card! The staff were friendly and helpful. My only complaint were the lines. Arrive early if you want concessions. The venue was clean, acoustics were good, and I'd say these not a bad seat in the house! It's a smaller venue but the stage is large and elevated so the viability is great!

This is not a professionally run venue. I'm a professional musician and have toured domestically and internationally so I understand the challenges behind running one and appreciate the difference between being behind, onstage and in the audience. The only positive this has going for it is free parking. Our performance was ticketed for 12 pm on the tickets and in email and yet the performance started at 1. The entire audience of 1000 either sat around outside or walked down the street to get Middle Eastern food (which you should do!). How does this happen?! Otherwise, LiveNation t-shirt clad "ushers" aren't given focused lighting devices to help the multitude of people they let in over 30 minutes late to Classical or Ballet to find their seats. They literally were whipping out their personal cell phones which is terribly disruptive. They don't cut off patrons from entering and they speak loudly as employees and they don't do anything for disruptive patrons who should be removed. The sounds system is low quality and poorly designed for the room. The movie theatre style seats are uncomfortable for smaller children and my 6 year old fidgeted the entire performance since the seats were too deep for her to weigh down. Rows are 49 seats long so enter from one side or the other!C

This venue is a tragedy waiting to happen. We're lucky to be alive. On May 26, 2022 - after almost 2 years of waiting we drove almost 6 hours to The Magnolia theatre to see one of our favorite bands OMD play. The theater was very nice in appearance and we were very excited to see the band. We also had 2nd row seats. During the 2nd song I started to feel the floor literally move up and down. I looked over to my friend and asked him if this was an earthquake because we had to hold on to our chairs to avoid falling down. During the 3rd song the floor began to flex and shake so badly that I witnessed people starting to leave and there was even dust clouds starting to form in the air that was visible when the neon lights were shined out into crowd. The floor flexed and shook so badly that people were holding onto their seats and leaving the venue fast. After 2 years of waiting we decided to leave the venue also. It was not worth having the floor collapse and losing our lives. After we left I came to learn that The Magnolia was recently renovated and apparently OMD was the first concert since the renovations. I have attended hundreds upon hundreds of concerts in my lifetime and I have never felt the floor lift up and shake like a full blown earthquake. This venue needs to be shut down and the Civil Engineer for El Cajon needs to come inspect the flooring before it's too late and lives are lost.

Good food and cocktails! Seating is good sized. Convenient parking, friendly staff and a great venue for concerts and comics! This place is a gem!

Came here twice for 2 different kinds of show, I was here for Jamie Foxx special and The Disney Princess Concert, so far so good, you got free parking structure with walking distance but will probably having trouble leaving after the concert because the way they designed this parking. I never heard of this venue until 2020 so it must be new and renovated from some kind of building prior, but their staffs were pretty professional, they gave me a pair tickets from 2 different rows, so I came out to the box office and they were happy to fix that for me. Spacious seating with elevator access for disabled people. They just need to bring more known talents and shows to the venue and they will be good to go.

We seem to have all gone to the Prince Tribute show the other day, LOL. This may be due to the fact that the Magnolia emailed people to tell them they could get 4 free tickets to the show. Obviously they had quite a few unsold seats they wanted to fill up. This is owned by Live Nation now, so tickets are through Ticketmaster. That means buying at the box office is a much lower fee than online. This was our first time at this venue, since we live in North County. It is similar to the Poway Performing Arts Center, but with a larger capacity. Parking was easy at the small garage that is part of the City Hall complex, but it wasn't easy to get out since there was 1 lane out of the garage. There are spaces out in front, but they fill up fast. The ticket pickup was easy, after we made it through security bag search & metal detectors. They do allow in & out privileges, but you must have your ticket scanned out to use it for re-entry. No outside food allowed, and they do have a little bit of stadium type food like popcorn or pretzels, with stadium prices. The are several pop-up mini bars, as well as the main one dead ahead when you enter. Alcohol was also super pricey. Plenty of good restaurants nearby, so eat before you come. The seating is good, with good views from every seat. The first row will be looking up the whole time, so sit a little further back to make it easier on yourself. We were in row Z, and there were a few rows behind us (Z1, etc), plus a VIP room. The rows behind were temporary chairs, and didn't look as comfortable as our standard theater chairs with cupholders. Sound was ok, not the best. And as mentioned, only 1 restroom that's on the small side. So go before the show when there's not a line. And don't get the giant beer.

I've now been to two shows here so I can confidently say that I am in love with this venue and I am so lucky that it's in my backyard. This is a hidden treasure of a music and performing arts venue. It's intimate, easy to get to, free parking, doesn't feel overwhelming, employees are super friendly and the sound is great. Both experiences I've had here were great and it was at the Morrissey concert and The Nutcracker ballet. Two VERY different types of shows but they both created a beautiful experience and magical experience for their audiences. I can't wait to come back for another show at The Magnolia! Take my money!

We drove all the way from Oceanside to see 3 Dog Night. We got here at 6pm because the doors opened at 6:30. It's now 8:30pm and we have yet to see the band we came here to see. $267 dollars later. Still listening to the 2 guys opening.... sigh! Ready to leave. Drinks are ridiculously expensive. So is the food. We will NEVER come back here to see anybody. NEVER! Parking is a hassle. This venue sucks. So not happy. We don't recommend coming here at all. The opening band is very boring. Thanks a lot. I want a refund!

This is such a great venue! It's a hidden gem and I highly recommend coming here for any show.

I was gifted a ticket to Pod Meets world and I was pleasantly surprised by this venue. Plenty of free parking. Comfortable seats Nice views from the seats Concessions including alcohol I found a snippet video of the show we saw. You can see part of the show here. You'll see that the sound in the theater is good. https://youtu.be/j9jN4M6M32E

Lyle Lovett. We found the sound to be good. I know that other reviewers had complained about muddy sound. Possibly the result of the mix by the group performing? There is no center aisle, which is annoying, and makes is so that you have to get past a lot of people to sit in the center. Also, god forbid, what if there were an emergency of some kind? Set up for disaster. I assume (but can't prove) that the lack of a center aisle is part of Live Nation's profit maximization model and take-over of our concert venues nationwide. Good for private capital, bad for the rest of us.
