Saw Tenacious D here in September. Parking is easy and the overall atmosphere of the venue is fantastic. The open sides of the actual amphitheater allow for much airflow, which keeps you from overheating. Prices for drinks aren't the worst I've seen, and the cocktail bar actually was making great drinks. Highly recommend for a show!

Gem of Bridgeport. Amazing open space with nighttime views (not noise) of the train and highway- right from your seat.

Is it service dog friendly

Mae Palmisano | Jun 9, 2022
Julie Connectict | Jul 9, 2022

An emotional support animal might be very uncomfortable here. If you have a seeing eye dog, thats one thing, but perhaps one could choose to go with friends who can assist you rather than stressing your dog out with noise,lights, people, fog, confetti, glowthings,and singing. Sure if you NEED your vested and documented service animal, they by law cant refuse you,but think if there is a good alternative, first. Consider it at least?

For a rock concert like Lynard Skinner, is it better to sit in floor seating or up one level? Do floor seating people end up standing the entire concert so it would be difficult to see?

Shelly Fogel | Apr 10, 2022
Xavier Boyer | Apr 10, 2022

If you want to sit and relax a bit more, go up a level, if you want to stand and be in the crowd a bit more, aim for the floor. Sounds the best on the floor, looks the best up a level

is section 105 or 108 elevated slightly or is these sections floor seating - even level I hate when people stand all thru the concert and I am short and cant see thanks for any info on sections

SUZANNE NOTO | Feb 9, 2022
IGGY | Feb 9, 2022

probably floor seating. Enjoy the show
