Excellent venue to see a concert or play. Well designed so there is no bad seat in the building. Randy Rainbow did an outstanding show to a packed audience

Easy to get to. Easy check-in process and awesome option for live music and drinks outdoors while waiting for the show. The venue is beautiful, clean and had the collective friendliest staff I have encountered in a very long time!

Great venue! Saw Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the conspirators and had an awesome time.They offer Vale parking. We had Front row seats. I advise to order drinks on there app so you don't have to wait on the long lines. Also if you sit close to the stage you might want to bring earplugs.

I celebrated my birthday a few days ago & had been researching music concerts a week before when I found out Gipsy Kings would be playing at Ruth Eckerd Hall. I quickly bought tickets for me and my husband. It was my first time at Ruth Eckerd Hall and I don't know why it took so long to go there but it certainly wont be the last. It's an upscale venue which made the experience of seeing Gipsy Kings for the first time extra special! The venue, the ambience, the event was amazing! We're heading back for a concert featuring the Temptations & Four Tops in a few weeks. Highly recommended!

Any Military discount offered?

William Delmolino | Sep 5, 2019
BriezieQ Ellingwood | Sep 5, 2019

William it says student and military discount offered with proper ID. Now I'm not sure if that pertains to every event they have. For instance when looking on a musical coming up it says it's offered, but on the Tesla concert it didn't show that. I would give the office a call and ask. Maybe if you purchase straight from the box office rather than online. Good luck 😊👍

My wife and I will be attending the Greg billings band farewell tour, will we have to wear a mask for this concert?

James | Sep 4, 2021
Sammy S | Sep 4, 2021

The answer is Yes, mask are required. I went to the Kansas concert on May 8. They stressed having mask on at all time and having a drink in your hand didnt exempt you from having a mask on.. they would announce it every 5min. But this as of May 8th... things have changed but rest assured they will stress the new rules to follow. I guess that will be the pattern until we get back to normal...whatever normal is... Be safe, follow the rules and you'll have a great and safe musical experience!

If you bought them from REH you simply have to contact them and they will refund you. If you got them from some third party you will have to deal with them.

Claudia Smith | Sep 4, 2021

Portal 6 is located on the East side of the Lobby. So when you enter through the main doors on the west, you can walk through the concourse to get to that side of the building and enter the auditorium to get to your seats.
