The staff is great. My husband is in a wheelchair currently. The accessibility is Not good. There is an elevator to the balcony, but no handrail on the stairs. There was no unobstructed view for someone in a chair. No ramp to get a chair to an unobstructed view. We had to carry the wheelchair down to the first row but his view was obstructed by able bodied people. The stairs were not kept clear of people during the show. If there was a fire we would have been screwed. Although the staff was wonderful the venue is not a good one if you are not able bodied.

Have seen several shows here mostly at the Lyric upstairs. Venue has a nice layout, is pretty wide open with lots of room. Bartenders have been friendly and quick getting drinks. Sound quality was better than expected. One of my favorite spots to see a show!

Went here to see Rise Against. Sound system was good. The floor is sloped so it was easy to see the stage even if you are short. Bar was super fast so props to the bartenders. Easy parking right by in a parking garage. Would recommend going to see a show here

This was my first time to attend a concert at the Skyway Theatre -- and I will definitely come back. I saw Eva Under Fire and Theory of a Deadman. The Skyway is a perfect small venue for a concert. I was on the main floor and because this is a former movie theatre the floor slopes up from the stage to the back. The sight lines are great because of this. The acoustics are good and even though we stood toward the back the stage was still quite close. The bar served quickly, drinks were not expensive, and the staff was very helpful. There is also a balcony.

Is the Skyway for all ages or just 18 and up? Or can you bring an adult over 18 to cover that?

Reagan Carpenter | Feb 15, 2020
Electric Feels | Feb 16, 2020

It’s typically 18+ and rarely ever 21+ but it says on the ticket page what the age restriction is for each show on SkywayTheatre.com when you click on the specific show to buy your tickets.

Ive been to the skyway theatre many times. At the usual show times in the evening, look for the outdoor parking lot on hennepin, between 8th and 9th street, facing northwest. Its right next to "infinity smokes" store, so look for that on the maps. The parking is around $5. From there, the walk to the theatre is one block up hennepin.

How suitable is your venue for wheelchair accessible?

Tony Gayken | Feb 15, 2018
Mike B | Feb 16, 2018

The Loft has an elevator to it and the floor is flat, but the Skyway Theatre itself has lots of stairs and terracing and the main floor is sloped. So probably not great.

Is any shows at skyway 16+? If not does anyone where there is for 16+?

Matthew Bernard | Feb 15, 2018
Mike B | Feb 16, 2018

They usually have the ages posted on their show list. I'd check individual shows but all the ones I've seen have been 21+.

Is there a vaccine mandate for shows at this venue? I'm going to AVA in a couple weeks and need to know if I should bring my Vax card and also if my lady should get tested so she has a negative result...

Adam Sortor | Sep 18, 2021
Dulce Torres | Sep 19, 2021

No, my boyfriend works there and there is NO mask mandates or vaccination verification either. But you are more than welcome to wear one if you are concerned for your health.
