I attended the Opera for the first time because my friend gave me a free ticket to join her. We watch the Zorro performance. First of all paying for parking you have to scan an app, ugh I didn't know this until afterwards there was nowhere to pay. You have to park and then take care of the payment before you leave your car! This is your only option! You are required to enter your license plate or take a picture of it. It is monitored by cameras if you do not pay for parking you will be fined $45. Parking is $12 so you might as well just pay it. !You should be aware of the bag policy! You're not allowed to bring your purse! Must be a clear small bag or a bag 5 x 8. I do not attend events downtown or sporting events so I did not know this. I was 30 minutes early waiting out front for a friend and then tried to go in and couldn't. I had to return to my car and put my purse in my trunk. I had my small purse that I usually carry my gun in. I took my gun out left it in the trunk brought the smaller bag and they didn't even check it. This is the bag I keep my gun in! For god sakes how stupid was that! Once I got back the performance was getting ready to start. We had amazing seats because she is a season ticket holder. The construction of the theater is really dumb there is only a 4-inch rise in the seats of course two men were sitting directly in front of us. We could not see around them, so we moved. During intermission we went outside only one way out. There was no seating outside people were perched on rocks and the fountain wall. We were going to sit on a small retainer wall and the security person told us we couldn't. They said that we were not allowed to leave the immediate area and if we did there would be non entry. At this point I was ready to leave. I told her we were sitting on the wall and we did. The performance was okay, you had to choose between watching the performance or reading subtitles. I left the venue early because of the nightmare about trying to pay for parking I didn't want to be stuck in the garage. They really should have more signage about the parking app payment being the only option. They should have signage about bags and purses before you leave the parking garage. You're not allowed to bring a water bottle, not even empty. People were turned away to put the water bottles in the car or told them to throw the water bottle in the trash. Of course they had water you could purchase for $6. I would not return. Plan ahead.
Just saw a concert here. Great venue. More leg room and wider seats than at Tucson Convention Center.
A gorgeous space, the auditorium holds a lot of people. Even the last row of seats of lower level has a decent view of the stage. The reception area is quite spacious. Restrooms are super clean. Easy to find with smooth ticket check in and security.
had an amazing night at this music hall! the building itself is super beautiful, and super impressed by all the staff, they were everywhere, very helpful and totally on top of everything. would love to attend another event here
The acoustics are good, the architecture, bad. Wish it had a friendlier lobby area where you can enjoy a nice drink in a glass cup…something classier.
