Bruce Hornsby - 11/18/16 - He was phenomenal as expected and Im so pleased to have been able to see him in such a small venue. Sound was great, I could actually hear him tapping his feet while playing - just lovely! Its a great small venue where the artist can be seen and interact with the audience as opposed to being watched on a giant TV from a mile away. Quite refreshing and lovely, seats are very comfy and roomy. Staff is helpful and respectful. Theres an elevator to take you to the lower sections if needed and two bars serving wine, beer and mixed drinks at reasonable prices. Close to show time they put caps on the cups so you can take them in to the show. I will definitely watch for more events to attend here as ticket pricing is also reasonable. I used Uber to get there and back as I wasnt sure how close parking was, but I understand parking is free and not far.

This place is amazing for so may reasons. Attend a performance here, visit the store, when Scottsdale has an activity in the front of the building, its opened up so you can see the inside. The parking garage is close and Ive stopped at the restaurants around the center for lunch or dinner. Its a very convenient location.

Outside the Centre is an outdoor stage facing a grassy bowl. On Sunday afternoons during the early months of the year, the bowl is filled with residents and visitors sitting on blankets and folding chairs. They are there to enjoy for free all kinds of musical concerts put on by the very best musicians and singers.

Very cool venue. Interesting architecture outside, in the lobby and in the theater. The theater is tiered nicely to hold perhaps 700 or so. The structure creates very good viewing positions from every spot. The acoustics are very impressive! See a show there just to experience the place.

Great place to see a show! Seats are comfortable and the slope of the seating area allows a great view of the stage even if the tallest guy in the room sits right in front of you. The acoustic design of the room is excellent so the sound quality is awesome! Loved it!

A lovely venue in every way beautiful facilities and beautiful surrounding grounds. The parking is a little bit tricky if you dont know what youre doing. I would definitely like to come back and see another performance.

There was a senior health fair scheduled. The number of vendors were half the amount of last year. I was not as impressed. Im 60. There were too many care communities promoting their business.

The location has great sound and can accommodate a diverse number of shows. The place is designed in such a way that the crowd is small enough for everyone to enjoy a great show.

If you are planning to organize an event here, keep in mind that they have so bad sound system. I was there on 04/28/2015.

A wonderful place for local artists to display their talent. There was even an indie short in one of the rooms.
