Was here for the 'Blame Canada Tour'.. first time here and it was pretty good, definitely had a blast. Little crowded but I feel it added to the experience. Bathrooms were spotless though! Definitely would go back for the right event.

Not my first visit to this venue with so much character and interesting detail in architecture, which ultimately creates exactly the mood for an actual theater. A very apt venue actually, for the magnificent Bruce Dickinson, who is extremely theatrical:) !! His hilarious account of his life from school days through to his Iron Maiden touring days. I almost missed this show but am extremely grateful that I was able to finally see this legend...in the flesh! Update: Also seen Crobot, Danzig, Cradle of Filth here too recently. They were not strict about masks...tickets had to be saved on phone for scanning( no screesnhots). The venue has different levels and many nooks and corners. The bathrooms are clean and the staff are helpful for seat finding. There are drink available but no food items. The seats are close and narrow so just heads up if you're like me and appreciate some space;) I chose balcony for this reason. The upper levels also provide a more panoramic viewing experience than from below.

We came from Missouri to see Tommy Cash and the venue was very nice. Loudness of music was perfect, lighting was nice and the show was amazing. My only complaint is not about the venue it's self, but the tall men that crowded the front of the stage. I'm all for living in the moment and not through a phone screen, but if it wasn't for my phone I wouldn't of gotten to see the performance. I had to hold my phone around a lumbering giant so I could see what was happening on stage, got many nice shots of an arm throughout the night. But it's not a problem the venue can control. We had a blast and will definitely be back if any of our other favorite musicians perform here.

Beautiful venue, friendly staff and fun atmosphere. The Uptown felt like another time period of days gone by. So glad we finally got to see it and enjoy a show! Big Head Todd and The Monsters sounded great!!

Treyton Servantez | Sep 4, 2018
John Thacker | Sep 4, 2018

Like Christopher said It's easier to order online and you might even find the tickets cheaper by searching the concert/ event itself and comparing different sights prices. Know the concert I recently attended there was cheaper through another sight than going directly through Uptown's sight.

Smallish bags, and purses. All bags and persons are subject to being wended with the handheld metal detectors and bags searched. No pepper spray, knives, guns or ammo, no belt chains. Take all the pictures and video you want, but make sure the flash is off while the artist is on stage. The flash will blind them.

Where do I park

Mary Dolce | Sep 4, 2017
Norene Place | Sep 4, 2017

Park in the shopping center parking lot, but In the slots closest to the Uptown. If they are all full the shopping center has a multi level parking area. (Free) It's closer to the shopping area but you only have to walk across the parking lot to get to the Uptown. *WARNING* If the stores are still open and you park to close to them they can tow your car. Does not apply to the multi level lot.
