Went to Farmington Utah show and had to leave before half the show was done. Packed us in like sardines. Way too many people not enough space so show started 30 mins late. They were frantically grabbing hay bales for people to sit on last minute. No way of getting in and out. Felt like I was in my own personal hot air balloon. If you had to pee, good luck. Hard bleacher seats were like sitting on rocks in the desert. Parking was a nightmare and they had the bravery to charge us even after their overpriced tickets. My kids wanted a $10 3 scoop bag of pop corn. No dice there. Better planning needed next time.

Went to see Johnny Lang last night at Chandler Center for the Arts. It was our first time in that venue. It was a great,¢ small venue experience. The sound was excellent and I don't think there is a bad seat in the house. We definitely recommend CCA and we are definitely going to look for more entertainment to enjoy at the center!

I recently attended the India Arie concert here and it was fabulous. No matter where you sit in the theater, you are able to see and hear exceptionally well. The acoustics are amazing, staff is super friendly and you can tell that they take great pride in the upkeep of the building. Only issue is parking, so make sure you arrive early. Especially if it's a sold out show. If you can't find a park, there are extra parking lots on the opposite side of the theater on Chandler Blvd. I will definitely return if they book another one of my favorite artists.

Considered by many among the best in the country, that alone makes any show worthwhile.. and the calendar is also among the most diverse in the valley. Have heard foreign performers unfamiliar with Phoenix be overwhelmed by the auditorium.

I find this place much better accessible than the snobbish options at the Scottsdale Center for the Arts. Programming is much more diversified and people-oriented as opposed to intellectuals only. There was a Glen Miller Orchestra yesterday, Groucho next week and Art Garfunkel is coming next month, how's that for diversification! Plenty of parking space and some libations available. I just with they'd do away with the peddling and beginning before performances...

Generally, a very nice classic old style theatre for performances of various types. This theatre has a very large and deep stage. This is great for theatre, and once i saw an ice skating show on this stage and it was perfect. That being said that despite decent sound it's not a great place for some bands to perform. The band, in this case, Los Lonely Boys, was set up so deep within the stage that even from the front of the theatre, it felt like they were a million miles away, not sure if this is standard set up for bands at this theatre, but it's not a great set up. Again, i must say it's a very nice theatre with nice employees overall and would go again for other types of performances.

This venue is great because it is not too big. That is, you will be able to get a great seat anywhere in the house. They also do a good job of bringing in performances suitable for children.

You never know what you might find in this place: from symphony to country to ballet to... an Italian Circus! And one that started in 1824, no less! It's truly family entertainment, fun for kids and grown ups, a real circus the type that does not exist anywhere anymore. No digital nothing, just skilled performers and fun. Do not miss this one. And while there, stop for lunch or dinner at la Stalla Cucina Italiana(separate review): to me this is truly Italian cooking, probably the best I have found in the state of Arizona. And that includes all the high end places in Scottsdale.

A good restaurant for dinner before a 7:30 p.m. event on Friday, February 13, 2015.

Please recommend a good restaurant (for dinner) that is very close to the Chandler Center for the Arts.

Most places around there are pub style food. The best rated place is Vintage 95. Great tapas and wine with specials. This is a good date night before or after a show.
Its also close by.
