Do not buy tickets to a concert here if you suspect for any reason you will need to get rid of them. No refunds, no ticket transfers, can't sell them. If you buy a ticket and for whatever reason can't go, you are effed.

Absolutely horrible. Went for Olivia R concert. About 5,000+ people lined up outside throughout day. One public toilet, no portables set up, zero security. When doors opened and line started to move, entire park (last people in line) bum rushed the entire line. It was complete chaos. No security to direct lines or people. I was very disappointed and scared for myself and my daughter.

It was amazing seeing all .y favorite djs and bands here at Bill Graham auditorium. I have had so much fun meeting up with friends here and making memories. I've been coming here for over 5 years now and I will always return for their concerts here. I recommend this place for any artist who wants to perform here and to anyone looking for a getaway ✨✨✨

Ignore the row numbers. If it says GA, means you can stand in the lowers or sit anywhere upstairs.

Where's the best parking for evening events?

Heidi Vandermolen | Aug 27, 2018
Annie | Aug 27, 2018

There is a underground parking lot directly across from the event Civic Center Garage that typically cost $20. Very close to the event but getting out of thr garage at the end of event is a pain since there is only one exit. If you want to park there, i would recommend parking closer to the exit on the first available floor. Otherwise there are plenty of parkings in the surrounding area.
