Love this place... its close, the parking is better than most concert venues, & its a good size. You also get free entry to the OC Fair when its going on. Like everywhere, concession prices are criminal, but most people know this by now. My only complaint-we went to a Weezer concert where we sat near the very top... for some reason we could hardly hear, almost like the speakers up there werent working. Not sure if this is the norm up there, but other concerts here have been great when we had closer seats.

Visually a great experience. Not so crowed on the dance floor so that you couldnt let go ! I saw Oingo-Biongo there. Too much treble or high pitched sounds. The show was fantastic, a little slow at first. After intermission I loosened up, dancing with a big space for it. I didnt even bounce off of anyone else around me. I did get some looks and was asked later, "Are you alright? You were out there for a minute! My answer, Im doing great! Havent you seen someone having a good time 1980s style?

I came to see Empire of the Sun here back in July. The line is ridiculously long and no order. The band had to postpone the show for another hour to wait for everyone get in. Also, if youre unlucky and have tall people in front of you be prepared to not be able to see anything for the whole show. If you telly like the band I encourage you to splurge and get seats close to the stage.

Really cool place to watch some of your favorite bands. Its open air and it doesnt feel like youre so far away from the stage. Going during fair season is always cool. You can go to fair by day and concert by night. Note that if you buy concert ticket you get free fair admission.

It was before the OC Fair started. Got there early so parking was easy. Seats comfortable. The open air venue is lovely. You can bring food in or buy it there. The concert was excellent. Our seats were to far stage right, but the screens helped me to see the more.

I saw the Aquabats here at the OC fair. The show was a lot of fun but the sound quality left something to be desired. Several issues cropped up during the show with microphones not working or needing more volume. The overall volume was just not loud enough either.

Great Venue!! My seats were closer than it appeared when purchasing. I like how the venue was protect with high security throughout the whole event. Employees were very nice and helpful. Overall great and intimate venue, looking forward to returning.

Nice venue! We sat on the side in row H. It was very close, we saw the Isley Bros. and the Commodores perform! The sound was great, and the seats were high, so we could see the concert really well! If you go in the evening take a jacket.

Never seen a bad show there. Good sight lines and sound(could be louder for rock shows). Easy in and out. Free fair admission(e.i. Fair food before the show). Only con, plastic bottles make beer taste weird.

Very nice venue. Almost all seats have a good view. The food is terrible, but what do you expect. It leads right into the fairgrounds which is extremely convenient.

Great seats no matter where you sit. Been here twice to see Strange Love. Great amphitheater! Love Strange Love as much as I love Naked Sunday (another tribute band)

Love this place, been going for over 20 years. Really sad to see it go because the irvine company thinks we need more multiplex style apartments in orange county.

Great concert venue. Open air so lots of ventilation, but also sunlight. It can get hot. Music is never too loud. And they bring in great reggae bands. Love it.

Easy to park and find your way around. Great seating no matter where but pit seats are way cheaper than any where else if a band you want to see is there.

Just the right size for a concert. About the same size as the Hollywood bowl. Easy to get in and out of. Parking was a little bit of a challenge

Great venue in the heart of Orange County. Decent sound setup and good views from anywhere in the place means you really cant have a bad seat.

decibel limiting ruins an otherwise great venue. wish it were open year round and the silly NIMBYs would allow the venue to function properly!

They truly need to crank up the sound volume for their live concerts. Im sure the neighboring homes are the cause for the restriction. :(

Its a bit outdated. The security lines were a joke - took over an hour to get through them and they did a poor, unprofessional job.

The amphitheater looks to be well suited for the summer OC Philharmonic concerts. Looking forward to the first one.

I would give it 5 stars if the large beers werent $12 Acoustically at the new and improved PA sounds really good.

My favorite spot for the Pacific Symphony in the summer. You can picnic and enjoy the orchestra under the stars.
