Went for the Polish fest & the food was great! Fun area to go to for festivals. It's just extremely expensive! So I took off a star because the food would cost $15, $10 for a beer. But mind you, this is for the Polish fest which is yearly, end of summer.

Event center in large 1920s former movie theater. Your experience largely depends upon who is 'presenting' your event. No toilets in the balcony. Lots of bars. Steps from the Blue Line's Jefferson Park transit hub. Some free and metered street parking, their large pay lot is often costly.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I purchased tickets for Pimpinela's concert a year in a half ago before covid-19 and their show was cancelled. I just realized they came last month. Do I get credit for those unused tickets for a future event? Please advise. Thank you!

Alicia Lira | Dec 2, 2021
Copernicus Center | Dec 2, 2021

The Pimpinela concert was "Postponed" not cancelled. Unfortunately, asking for a refund or credit AFTER an event is not possible. I encourage you to follow our website or Facebook or Join the Facebook Event to stay informed. So sorry you missed the event.

If a person is late for a movie screening and has paid for a ticket, will you let him in in the middle of the screening?

99.9% of the event Producers that rent the theater use assigned seating via ticket sales. Very few events have "general seating" ticket sales. (maybe 2 in the last 5 years) Specific seating & ticket prices are listed on our website for each event. https://copernicuscenter.org/ Links to our official ticket vendor, Ticketfly, are also on each event's page.

The last time I was at a Trower concert at the Milwaukee Arena, we were about 12 seats center aisle from the stage...all we could do at that time...we all got on our knees and kept crawling to the stage...Trower was amazing...to say the known...ha-ha...and, praise God, the security was so understanding of all those Strat cords lifting us out of our seats...and floating us back to the aisle on our knees...MORE Trower please...The Copernicus looks like a nice venue for Trower's concert. And...WXRT our Chicago Fave!
