I loved going there to see my favorite bands/artists. I love everything about this place. The view was great, this place is defantly one of the best places to go listen to music.

Riverbend is a nice music center that has tons of seating. Parking can get a little bit crazy, so I recommend arriving early for your event. I was here for a few Warped Tours and a Blink 182/Manchester Orchestra concert. Lots of (expensive) food to get, too! I definitely feel like lawn seats aren't worth it. You can barely see...

Saw a band there. IF you go to the ticket window instead of buying them online you can sometimes get a fourth ticket for free!
Riverbend Music Center is owned by the Cincinnati Orchestra and rented out to musical groups during the summer. The seating in the center is both a covered area with assigned seats and then on the hill behind. First the seating... it is nice to have a seat off the ground in an enclosed area if it is a hot sunny...

Most of the time it's pretty reasonable in price - plus, people will pay to see the bands they want to see. Riverbend has had so many amazing concerts!

We saw Natalie Merchant in july and the venue was ok. the seats were comfortable and the sound from boats was not bad. the parking lot and Food was not the greatest. The astroturf area was interesting
It's too hot in the summer to have outside concerts in Cincinnati, IMHO. FYI lawn seats sucks - you can't see a thing. You go to the lawn to listen, not see anything, just so you know.
There has to be a better way to move cars in and out before/after concerts. Terrible experience, but draws good talent.
Hate the way they built this place very hard to see from the lawn but the new fake turf is pretty cool no doubts. Bathroom situation could also be better but that is the same with most venues.
I have seen 10+ events at this venue of the years. The most recent being Sugarland this past August. I have also tried the VIP restaurant and found it surprisingly good. The concessions are ok and almost made me drop to a 4/5. Highly recomend.
