I saw Alec Benjamin here, and I definitely loved this venue! It could easily fit 3000 people, there were about 2000 the day I was there. Nice lighting effects and good speakers, I could here the audio all the way in the back. You have to get your hands marked with an X in permanent marker if you don’t want to drink alcohol, and it doesn’t come off for a few days. But this venue was amazing overall. The performer was also amazing and I loved the music! Would recommend.

Micro wrestling event. 21 to enter? Kids or teens allowed?

Doug Clark | Oct 8, 2020
The Fillmore Charlotte | Oct 8, 2020

All ages! :)

Is the venue friendly for kids to come to a concert? Specifically 8-10 year old. Would they stand and look at the back of the person in front of them, or is the tiered floor sufficient to ensure everyone can see?

Benjamin Petersen | Oct 8, 2020
Jessika Claborn | Oct 8, 2020

I would say it's not overly kid friendly at that age. As standing room only, they might have trouble seeing the stage. It is not a tiered stage. I am 5'7 and was a few rows of people back from the stage and still struggled at times for a good view It also gets QUITE crowded.

Looking at prices for general admission and I see G6, G7, etc. What does that mean? If it's GA, why are the prices different? Are those 2nd party rates?

Me You | Oct 9, 2019
zepbenny | Oct 9, 2019

Unless you are getting VIP, which means the area is blocked with seating and your own bar, the rest is GA, that means people or companies just trying to make extra money off you

Chad Sessions | Oct 9, 2019
Kristina Bolick (Krisa) | Oct 9, 2019

Nope. If you want to sit down you will have to buy an upgrade. 50$ and up. Also draft beers are 10$ a piece. Crazy expensive.

Asia Ramos | Oct 9, 2019

The Filmore is all GA show. Do not spend extra money for VIP unless you want to actually sit down. The left side of the venue has tables. You can almost always upgrade at the will call window. 😆

What does it mean when my ticket says GA6, will I still be close to the stage?

Braeleighs Mommy | Oct 9, 2019
Chris Campau | Oct 9, 2019

It's all general admission. Get there early and you can be as close as youd like

My show starts tonight at 7 is there a certain time the doors close?

Austin Jenkins | Oct 9, 2019
DJ Harrison | Oct 9, 2019

The venue is basically a bar and opens up about an hour before the show... Shows usually start within 10 mins +/- of the posted start time (i.e. this is not like a theater where if you aren't there at the start you have to wait until a certain point to be let in). If you want a good viewing spot, get there about 30 mins before your show starts, get a drink, and be ready to stand for awhile... They do try and clear the place out pretty quickly once the show has ended...

Hours on Thursday night?

Jordan Godwin | Oct 9, 2019
Nicholas Good | Oct 9, 2019

As mentioned, the Fillmore doesn't have specific hours. However there is a noise curfew during the week so typically shows don't go too late. Asking about hours makes me wonder if you're instead curious about the Music Factory as a whole; it is a conglomeration of many different businesses each with varying hours including multiple other music venues, bars, clubs, and restaurants. See the Music Factory site for more info (avidxchangemusicfactory.com)

What is a vip club access ticket ?

Azelah Cordon | Oct 9, 2018
Shannon Charette | Oct 9, 2018

Separate, slightly raised section to the side. Has separate bar and restroom. Standing room only unless you pay an additional fee on top of the vip fee for a seat or a table. Ends up being expensive, but you're not crowded and can see unless you pick a seat that has an obstructed view. I did it 2 nights ago at a sold out show. I'd do it again in a heartbeat, but would reserve my seat further in advance to have best selection now that I know the options.
