The Roseland is a staple music Venue in Portland, Oregon. . Although they’ve tightened their security meaning you can only carry in items that fit in your pockets or a tiny, clear bag, the staff is pleasant. They book great shows. It’s a great venue with great sound, and they book eclectic artists. I do love The Roseland.

Went to a jazz concert. This place has a very lively, hometown kind of vibe. Mostly standing room, which actually lent to visiting with other concert goers. The ushers(if that's what you call them today) we're friendly and explained the safety rules. A great experience!

We went and saw Tom Odell! HE was amazing!!! The venue however was less then desirable. They didn't have the balcony open and it was a large show! So absolutely NO seating downstairs! A very small section for those that were disabled. They got fold out chairs on the side in the dark. Not 1 other chair! Everyone had to stand for over 3 hours! I'm 49, in excellent shape and it was a lot to stand that long!! Even the 20 somethings were visibly tired and uncomfortable. I kept going to the bathroom just so I could sit for a minute. Not going back, no matter who plays there!

This venue SUCKS! The carpet is smelly and slimy, the vibes are scary, seedy looking people are at the entrance of the venue...I was worried of being mugged or pick pocketed! Too small with too many people packed in and the show was not even sold out. I would NEVER go back!

I decided to go down to Portland for a weekend get away, usually if I'm in a new city I look to see if there are any shows going on, thankfully there was. This is a venue I was hoping to check off of my list sooner than later, and I'm glad it happened. Roseland is not a modern, refurbished venue by any means, its old, its dirty, and dark, like most concert venues are. The layout is GA on the floor, and the balcony above is seated and wraps around. Catch a show here if you can, you wont be disappointed.

The bad reviews I am reading seem to be people that either had a bad customer service experience or did not know the type of venue they were going to. Throwback places like this are often a disappointment to those expecting modern theaters and concert venues. I thought the rustic charm in this place was great and the fact that Keane kicked off their North American tour here and was incredible will make this a memorable place for me. Yeah it’s old and small with a bad bar set up and miserable bathrooms but it’s an intimate spot to see a show. I like the place.

Was able to sit in the balcony to see Lukas Graham and Rozzi. Roseland is a little beat up in a vintage way. Bathrooms were clean. Was grateful for plenty of security outside. Had a great time.

I drove yesterday from Seattle to see Nightwish. Have always been to Hawthorne Theatre till now. First time in Roseland and I was not impressed. I bought reserved seating on the balcony and going up there was a pain, had to wait in a long line with everyone wanting to go to the second floor bar. They allow people without seats on the balcony that creates a huge crowd upstairs. The seats are wooden, super tight and super uncomfortable. Just before the show started a tall guy sat in front of me and I was not able to see anything except his head. This prompted me to leave my seat and stand up with the rest of the crowd. The security were constantly moving us as we had to allow fire line to be created so people can walk there, super annoying. Basically I paid money for nothing as people without seats were also upstairs standing or even seating on chairs that were left empty when the show started. Going out was a pain as they have very small stairs that can't handle all the crowd trying to leave. Did not use the bathrooms so no idea of their conditions. I'm used to the venues were metal bands usually go but had some high expectation for Roseland based on reviews. Next time I won't be paying for seats as it does not make much difference once you are there.

Security did NOTHING to help my brother who got attacked right outside. They watched and did nothing!!! He was seriously injured! They lied to him and said they called the cops, but they didnt. The cop WE called said that the Roseland is a terrible place, and they will avoid calling the cops at any and all costs. The staff are a bunch of [--] and are terribly mean!!! The area is super sketchy and I will never go back there. I have been 3 times and have had a bad experience each time, so thats it. They may have good bands, but it isnt worth it! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! DO NOT SUPPORT THIS PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
