I saw The Temptations & The Four Tops. What a show, what talent, & what a performance! I had a great seat in the "Pit" area & had a fantastic time. I would go back to this Music Center again. All the event staff was so kind & helpful as well. A wonderful & safe time!
Great venue for a summer concert! Very clean, easy to get in and out, variety of concession stands, plenty of restrooms, free parking. The acoustics in the pavilion were fantastic. Would definitely go again for another show!
We attended a string cheese incident concert at the rose music center and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The venue has a VIP area that is very spacious and offers private bathrooms. We even saw the lead singer of the band in the area after the show! String cheese put on an excellent show and the visuals and acoustics were fantastic.
Saturday night’s show was our first time at The Rose Music Center At The Heights after seeing Brit Floyd - The Pink Floyd Tribute Show multiple times in Columbus and Cincinnati. I know there were some fans that were disappointed that Brit Floyd wasn’t playing in Columbus this summer, but this venue was spectacular and exceeded my previous experience at “Kemba Live!” in every way possible! Parking was plentiful and free, employees at the front gates were kind and courteous, restrooms were clean and well-stocked, the venue and grounds were well cared for, and the view was great (even though we bought our tickets late & were the furthest away from the stage that we’ve ever been). And I LOVE the policy about being able to bring in our own non-alcoholic drinks so that I can stay well hydrated during summer concerts! In short, it was definitely worth the additional drive from Columbus and I’m thrilled to see Brit Floyd is choosing the play The Rose Music Center a second time this summer!
It was the first time ever going and I have to say it was a really good experience. Drinks are fairly priced,food was great and the stage and seating area is perfect. We will be going back for sure.
