I've been to a lot of venues, and this is by far my favorite of all of them. If the weather is good, you have beautiful sunsets behind you. The area is lined with excellent food trucks. Bathrooms are plentiful, and easy to get into. There's barely ever a line if you are trying to get a beer. Everything here just moves so smoothly. And as for the show, the sound is decent, and even when the venue is at Max capacity, there is plenty of space to move around. Can't say enough good things about Thompson's point.

Amazing venue! Cannot say enough good things about this venue and their employees. Ricky working barricade was truly a highlight for the evening. Not only was he fun and interacted with the crowd all night, he made sure everyone was feeling good and staying hydrated. Awesome views, great good, and fantastic bands - I’ll definitely be back!

This was such a lovely place to see a show! Right by the water and beautiful. Everyone working at the venue was so helpful and kind, but Dallas and Ricky in particular were so great at working the barricade at Friday’s Bleachers concert! Very attentive while still lots of fun. Will most definitely come back.

What a beautiful outdoor venue! It's right next to the highway and I believe an airport, so I thought sounds from cars and planes would ruin the show, but you couldn't even hear them. There were so many food options from various food trucks, which I absolutely loved. It's right on a little river side too, which is gorgeous. Would definitely come back again!

Can we bring a backpack a pocketbook and cooler and what type can is allowed

Roger | Aug 1, 2022
Jennifer Thibodeau | Aug 1, 2022

Backpack or pocketbooks and soft sided coolers are allowed no can at all just sealed plastic bottles or empty refillable water bottles.

I see that you can bring in a soft sided cooler and one water per person - can you bring ice in that cooler with 2 refillable bottles for 2 people?

Donna Baker | Jul 23, 2022
Tyler Johnson | Jul 23, 2022

I believe its one unopened water bottle per person, in which case refillable bottles would not be allowed. You may want to ask the venue directly to make sure

Hello! It can depend on the event. For the State Theatre Concert Series, make sure to check the individual event page, as the requirements can vary from artist to artist. Our free Summer Sunsets series that runs most Thursdays and Fridays does not currently require vaccination.

VIP TICKETS FOR NATHANIEL & Night Sweats. Is there such a thing at any concert, I see VIP on seat chart?

William Vincent | Aug 23, 2019
Susanna Lajoie | Aug 23, 2019

I think Alex is right, most shows I've seen there have a VIP section at the side of the stage... some seating and I think their own bar... However I don't see any mention of VIP tix on the Thompsons Point Facebook page for this event. I would check TP website or contact the State Theater for confirmation.
