It's a nice room for putting on shows and gathering, it's near accomodations and shops-- and a movie theatre. But it is BRUTALLY HOT in the summertime, and I pray with all the strength I can muster that they figure out their air conditioning. I performed there and I thought I was going to melt.

Cool venue. Heard John legend helped them become independent from the university. Which is even cooler!

Poor sound treatment, not ideal for loud bands. No water fountains or water for sale. Had to go to the musicians green room and drink their water because there was none to be found. Venue has potential though. With some sound panels and a water fountain this venue could be an easy 4 or 5 stars

Even after 17 years, Poet-Tree EnMotion at The Rotunda is always a magical event to attend since the artists range from poets, to dancers, from singers, to drummers, and everything in between with plenty of audience participation. Every event I attend at The Rotunda is full of Philly fun, trememdous talent, and wonderfully warm vibes.
