Marc GrahamApril 9, 2011You can see broadway shows, plays, musicals, and concerts. If you want to relax you can sit outside by the trees or even throw a frisbee around if you want! Good place to park if you are going to walk
Christine LFebruary 15, 2013ASU Gammage has spacious seating areas, and is wide enough to fit about two hundred people. When events go on, the architecture makes them much more lively.- Danny ImesNovember 12, 2013Awesome venue. The Lion King is there now and is a must see. It is on the ASU Tempe campus and there is parking right in front.
Jim LaughlinJuly 3, 2015The Cultural Hub for traveling performances of many of the biggest theatrical Broadway Events during their run in the Valley. The seating does range from premier to "nose-bleed," extra time to park.
Jazzy QuickNovember 17, 2013ASU Gammage hosts many orchestras and plays. Visit their website and get tickets to see big name shows! Also, there's a lot of food in the area, so make it a date night.
Catie HahneNovember 12, 2013Gammage is my favorite place to see performances. The shows here are spectacular and the tickets are very affordable. I love their student rush tickets!

Great place for theatre. Park in the parking structure to the east. It's worth the extra $ to get closer to the stage.
Kyle GrayDecember 26, 2015A really great theater at ASU. If the theater is sold out it, it does get a little crowded, but it's still perfect.
Citizen Public HouseMarch 2, 2011What is better than dinner and an amazing show at Gammage?Come to Citizen Public House in Scottsdale before/after the show to enjoy some delicious eats.Serving elevated pub-grub for the modern citizen Read more
Kyle HilowNovember 11, 2010Host to a majority of the off Broadway shows that come to Arizona, the Gammage is a spotlight for the arts. Hosting choral concerts, jazz and orchestral, and graduations. Spacious with great seating.
Nicole GrayFebruary 24, 2011Gammage was designed by Frank Loyd Wright for his friend, an ASU President, Grady Gammage. Wright originally envisioned a different location for his opera house design, Baghdad, Iraq.
Mia FeinbergApril 14, 2011A Frank Lloyd Wright design, Gammage is the epicenter for all of the areas off Broadway productions. Just get there early, or there will be NO parking!
Erin CrosswaitApril 6, 2011So many amazing musicals and shows have come to ASU gammage! Keep up on ASU's website as to what shows are coming up because they always have something going on! Ellen DeGeneres was recently there!
Lynea DavenportNovember 16, 2013If the play Lion King or Marry Poppins comes here, you need to go! The parking can get a little hectic so show up early!
Robyn MooreNovember 3, 2010Gammage is considered to be the last public commission of architect Frank Lloyd Wright. It is named after Dr. Grady Gammage, the former President of Arizona State University from 1933 to 1959.
Gary SApril 13, 2011Great center for culture on ASU campus. Catch a performance here, but definitely don't park here unless you've got a pass. Admire the architecture - it was one of Frank Lloyd Wright's last projects.
Christopher MichaelMarch 10, 2013Make sure you pee BEFORE the show...trust me...you'll thank me because using the restroom during intermission is a cluster fuck! Too long a wait! Ughhh.- ASU's Tempe CampusAugust 8, 2012Aug 20 - 4-530pm-Check out a video preview of our hottest Broadway Season, get free food & meet new friends. Discounted student tickets available.

Billy SmithMarch 25, 2012If you are an avid mountain biker they have some pretty sick terrain there to ride. not to mention it is a great Wright design. go check it out
Parking at Gammage fills up quickly. Arrive about an hour early to ensure parking in the lot. My suggestion is to get there even earlier to park then walk on Mill Ave for dinner before the show.
Gery PadillaMarch 29, 2012If your using the meters to park your car during class use the ones around Gammage, they go up to 2 hours, the other meters around campus just go up to a little over an hour.- Zach BooherApril 14, 2011Many shows and events are held at ASU's Gammage Auditorium throughout the year. Several free events are put on as well for students. Usually a sun card works for admission.
Student receive half-off tickets the day of any show! The best deal for a broadway show in Phoenix, by far!- Sara SNovember 18, 2013First time at Gammage and saw The Lion King! Go check it out and make sure to get the student discount!

Boris FowlerNovember 12, 2010I love the Gammage lawn, it is a great place to play ultimate frisbee. Good lighting, if you have a light-up disc it is even better.
Arizona State UniversityApril 2, 2012Devils should see at least one performance at Gammage..especially since students receive a discounted rate.- Billy PedaceNovember 18, 2013Although tickets for the back row are a lot cheaper, the last few shows we went to we couldn't see the entire set.
The only place to see Broadway touring shows and that's sad. Terrible acoustics. Terrible seating. Just a bad experience if you have ever been to a real theatre.
George Brazil - PEJune 21, 2012Love love love just about every show they have here! We are season ticket holders!
CecileyMarch 10, 2011Awesome place to catch touring Broadway shows. Try and get tickets early some shows sell out fast.

- edith marottaMarch 26, 2018Great plays but the seats are uncomfortable and no air, hot, bring a fan.

"Great spot to catch a concert because of the size. Not a bad seat in the house and the smaller atmosphere makes for some great shows. Sound is decent but don't miss your favorite act when they play."
