Awesome arena, it's huge and beautiful, clean too. And the parking situation is decent too. I thought we'd be sick in traffic getting in and out but it wasn't terrible. Really nice venue and well maintained.

Such a great place to see a concert in the SDSU campus. Very extensive security screening to get in , thanks Elite for keeping us safe always! Concessions are basic stadium fair and there is craft beer, wine and draft beer. Not a bad seat in the house , even the bench seats. Getting up and down the concrete stairs is always fun. Bathroom lines are usually long afters shows. Obviously.

I went to see Evanescense this past Saturday and it was an ok experience, parking very organized but they charged $20. There's no where else to park so had to pay the parking fee. Multiple entrances but it was strict about 14 days from the date of the 2nd shot Covid and you had to wear a mask to get in. Thank goodness I had masks in my car. They will not let you in and don't bring the selfie sticks for your cell phone, they took mine off.

The Viejas Arena located at The SDSU campus is a fantastic venue. Great stadium seating, an unobstructed view of the stage from almost any angle and a solid sound system. I’ve been coming to this venue for years and I’ve never been disappointed.

There are quite a few hitel/motels on El Cajon Blvd within 6$ Uber ride from sdsu. There's also a Rodeway inn which is technically closer. I was in a howard johnson on El Cajon for March madness and it was convenient as there was a lot of casual eateries within walking distance
