Brian OSeptember 27, 2011Lawn seats are okay if you get there early and sit near the front. Otherwise I recommend actual seats cause its hard getting around people in the dark
Leah YamshonJuly 23, 2016Worst venue in the Bay Area. Parking is terrible, traffic arriving/leaving is horrendous-give yourself a 3 hour buffer before and after the show. Not kidding. Also, smells bad and the sound is awful.
- Brian OSeptember 4, 2010Great venue, not too huge, even back seats are decent. Plenty of room between rows and cup holders!
Rebecca HathawayAugust 25, 2014Avoid the parking lots altogether and find street parking about a mile away.
Leave early. Better yet, take a shuttle. The traffic is insane.
Live NationMarch 12, 2010Shoreline allows guests to bring in their own food and non-alcoholic drinks, so pack a picnic basket!
david marinSeptember 5, 2010Skip the garlic fries and go stright to The Sky Bar and double fist that Miller High Life!- Live NationFebruary 24, 2010If you have lawn tickets, you're able to bring in your own low beach chair (for most shows).
BarbJune 12, 2011Do not pay for front row seats. Just walk up when show starts. No one was kicked out. We bought 6 seats . Ended up with 3

- Live NationFebruary 24, 2010If you look really closely, you can see our resident Red Tailed Hawk flying around our venue!
LADY KATE (DJ LADY KATE)February 1, 2012Make sure you order a beer before 9:45pm or you will be stuck with water :/
Jamie HoangSeptember 21, 2013Worst system ever for parking. No wonder they set the starting time at 5pm for a show that really starts at 9pm...
- Rich YannaconeMay 27, 2016Nice place for a show. But it just to big. Can't see shit unless in the first few rows the lawn see absolutely nothing. Section 200's still look like dots on stage
Chad EverettSeptember 27, 2013The parking situation here is a complete nightmare. You should be prepared for the worst experience of your life.
Dennis ClarkSeptember 27, 2013If the event is sold out, allow for an hour to park and another hour to leave. Traffic is rough.

"The theater update is pretty dang swanky. Big cushy seats all through the place! Which recline to your heart's content! And assigned-seat reservations to boot! It's a lovely moviegoing experience now."

"Great seats throughout the venue! Be sure to sit in the center section for best viewing since the wings are not a distraction."
