Great acoustics and quite a lovely season of performances here this year---at more affordable ticket prices than Benaroya. You may find the cushions available in the lobby for borrowing during the concert to help the comfort level of Meany's theatre-style seats. Park in the garage below the hall--it's worth the cost, as parking in the U-district is hard to find. However, be sure to note well floor and direction where you parked, as the garage is a labyrinth and easy to get lost in. Our first time there, we spent 45 minutes after the concert wandering the garage trying to find our car! In recent years I've subscribed to the President's Piano Series and the Chamber Music Series, and found both to be excellent, varied, and well worth your time and investment.
