They would not allow us to go upstairs. The drinks were watered down and over priced!!!!!

On Sunday, October 1, I went to a recital and the organizers made us wait despite the cold and the rain. The security of the place very friendly. The unforgettable recital.

First drink i received was only 11$ and it was very good. The second drink was a TERRIBLE drink (mostly sweet and sour) and was 21$!!! That's ridiculous and very overpriced for ONE drink. A girl behind me at the venue who heard me complaining said she ordered a gin and tonic and had the same price!! There is no reason a sidecar nor a gin and tonic should cost 21$ per drink! While i loved the band i went to see i will NEVER order drinks here again as they are highly overpriced after the first one apparently. Terrible.

Hi, we have GA numbered 4 tickets ( two attendees are older folks) , are we going to be seated? can we upgrade to a table for 4? thanks

Kamel Zennia | Oct 13, 2019
Mckay Bolden | Oct 13, 2019

Hi! What show did you purchase tickets for? Most of our shows are standing-room only. Therefore, GA means you'll be standing. If you purchase VIP tickets, then a seat is guaranteed. If it's a seated show, GA means seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis. VIP tickets for that means there's a designated seat for you. I've attached the show calendar so you can see more information for every show. Hope this helps! http://thehowardtheatre.com/calendar/

What's the difference in ga and VIP for venues here ?

Justin Farish | Oct 13, 2018
Ghenet L | Oct 13, 2018

GA is on the bottom level which is more open. I've seen it be seated or standing - depends on the type of event. VIP is seated - either a few steps up from the bottom level, or on the 2nd level.

Is the place wheelchair friendly...
