Just went to a concert at the Wonder Ballroom venue. It was SO much fun. A great intimate setting for shows. I enjoyed the Tones and I concert, and had SUCH a blast. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. They were handing out water bottles during the concert because it was so hot, which I found to be really nice. They also had an eye out for any overly intoxicated persons and handled the situations well, since this was an all ages event. I would highly suggest this venue for others looking for some shows in the area!

We had a blast going to see Wolf Parade, and the opener, Soft Cheese, was good too. We had the friendliest security check I've been through and love the art and space. Very open, spacious, and kept cool. I would definitely come here again.

The venue itself is cool and the sound is good, but the ownership's aggressive approach to being mask police is extremely off-putting - especially now that there is no mandate requiring them to maintain that policy. Don't get me wrong, I'm an adult and I have no problem wearing a mask or providing proof of vaccination at the door as requested. However, having multiple staff members with flashlights constantly harassing people throughout shows for taking too long to put their masks on between sips of beer AFTER going through their mini TSA checkpoint outside...come on. Chill out and let us have some fun.

Totally enjoy this venue. Big open floor and two rows of balcony seats with an upstairs bar - ground floor and basement bars, too. Very good sound system and pleasant staff.

Is there seating here? Or is it standing room only?

Stephanie Blair | Aug 17, 2018
Danielle M | Aug 17, 2018

There is a balcony, but only two rows of seating. Also the balcony is in the front of the building, while the stage is in the front. It fills up pretty fast, so if you want a seat, be one of the first in line.
