AEG/Rose Garden Arena Reviews

We saw Pink and it was the perfect venue! It was clean, plenty of restrooms, good security, and easy to navigate!

Always fun to watch the Blazers play, but parking could be cheaper and more plentiful. $15 for the convention center? Crazy...

This is not my favorite place to see a show. I like more intimate venues. However they sound is always great.

The Moda Center is a really great place to see a game. My husband and I went to see the Blazers play. The facility is really beautiful. It's well maintained and parking was easy and close by. The food was good and there were many options. Thanks for a great date night out!

Conveniently located and accessible by MAX rail. Really good concessions.

Whole show was great. Especially when they brought the bday girl up for the band and crowd to sing happy bday too then had her on stage as a special guest for the next song

Iron maiden night....a mad house but it was electric from all of the event goers

Recently saw Iron Maiden at Moda Center for the 2019 tour. Great show and a long overdue visit from the boys from across the pond.

I really like this arena. I was able to take the Max Rail Line directly to the arena

Love the moda center! Going to trailblazers games are a great experience!

Good food options and clean bathrooms. Acoustics aren't to bad either.

So many great shows here, the venue is clean an lots of booths for food and bars on the floors. But the seats are just too crammed to be comfortable for me. My knees always hit the chair in front -- not good after several hours of sitting.

Went for Cirque du Soleil, good seating and plenty of restrooms. Easy parking at the local lots. Take public transportation to save parking costs.

Great concert venue. Fast lines, organized, three parking garages, safe environment.

Blazers, Awesome. Seats, Awesome. Hen Pen, HORRIBLE!

It's big. There are lots of bars and places for food.
If only it wasn't named after a faceless Megacorp

Every level had plenty of bathrooms, kiosks, and access tunnels. No bad views. The crowd is very interactive, and the escalators moved a lot of people quickly. The light rail is cheap. No need to pay expensive event parking or be stuck in traffic. Great venue!

I went to the Moda for the box office only. Glad I found seat to this upcoming concert.

Great concert venu. Staff was difficult couldn't go out for a smoke break without standing in a 10 minute line and getting rechecked for weapons a second time.

Great smaller arena for concert. Easy to maneuver around. Lots of helpful staff. Wish it had more food and coffee vendors inside and just outside of venue.

Lauren Daigle was amazing as ever. No lines, not too crowded, great seats... It was a night to remember. She'd absolutely stunning. Very talented young lady. Great time.

The arena is nice. Expect the usual exuberant prices for concessions and beer. Also don't go in expecting the team to win, consider it quite the bonus if it happens!

Nice new looking stadium. Doesn't look like there are any obstructed seats. If the blazers get 100 pts you get 6 free nuggets. Go blazers!

I can't believe the rose garden (refuse to call it moda center) is almost 25yrs old--great building!

Love the moda center! Always friendly ushers and staff..great view from any seat! Good sound system and alot of concerts I go see there, seem to put on a diffrent type show maybe because of the layout or such. I always enjoy any event I have been to there!

Judas priest rock concert.I meet 3 pretty women.brought 1 home w me for after hr party

Great arena. I was here for a Winterhawks game, and I was impressed by the atmosphere. Even better, they actually have a selection of local food and drink options. This is something that more arenas need! Parking was a breeze. I would definitely come back here again.

You mean "how was the Rose garden?" It was great, go Hawks.

It's well organized and the staff is very efficient. They typically are helpful as well. If you are tall you need to sit on one of the edge seats or your legs will be in pain and partially in the seat next to you.

The space is fine, but 12 bucks for a solo cup size beer? That almost made me laugh harder than the comedians

I am probably going to be bias towards Moda center because it was my first live basketball game.

Having said that, the Moda center itself is really good. It is very nicely built, it's huge and it's clean.

The center is at 10 minutes drive from the downtown Portland which is again a huge plus. The center has designated spaces for ride sharing pickup which is again nice to have. Enjoy!!!

The only thing I don't like about the place is the name. It will always be the Rose Garden to me. But the staff and food selection is great.

Very large wit comfortable seating for an arena. Very beautiful.

Great location but please lower the price of food/beverages. Way to expensive!

Health insurance shouldn't be so commercial it is able to pay $4,200,000 of YOUR money every year to have its name on a stadium! It was renamed in 2013. So for 7 years they've paid roughly 29.4 million dollars towards something other than paying for the health treatment of it's practically forced clientele or giving back to everyone paying premiums. What a racket.

Great time good food and good entertainment. Servers were friendly and I enjoyed myself. A good hockey game.

This review is SOLELY to review my popcorn experience at Moda Center. My wife and I attended the Pixies/Weezer concert in April. We had a fantastic time. The arena is great. Acoustics are decent. But. The our popcorn experience was less than favorable. It is by far some of the saltiest (sp?) cooked food I have ever had in my life. I understand why it is so salty because it helps sell more drinks...but is there a happy medium? A point that exists between "cardiac diet saltless" and the current level of "devastate my kidneys"? Check out this picture. You look at that and think...ooooh that looks buttery. No. It's salt. I feel like I have been drinking seawater. My pulse is thready, and I am not thinking clearly, when I urinate...it burns. ALOT. It's just a puff of salty air. Okay. That's a little hyperbole but you get the picture.

Arena is pretty nice, preseason ball sitting up at the top was an ok show.

Great arena, kid friendly, you can park 15 -20 min away for free parking. It's great!

I love this venue. Just watched the Blazers win their 10th straight! Can't wait fir the playoffs!

Great venue! Get there early to park, then enjoy the large variety of food vendors.

Rodeo was great. We were in 302 section which we enjoyed because we could see all the cowboys and bulls while they were still in the chutes. The only problem was we couldn't hear or understand any of the talking done over the speakers because all we got was just a blur of noise. Even the music was messed up sounding.

I ve sat all over this arena and have yet to find a bad seat. Sure the nosebleeds are far away but the view is still good. As with most arenas food and drinks are expensive.

Been there three times,once with Disney once with WWE Raw and now with Janet Jackson and I love this center. Clean, friendly and the seating is to me the best to see any show. Its not spread out its like a real coliseum. Thank you Moda center!

The event space was clean (at least when we arrived before everyone started throwing their trash on the ground.) The people there were pleasant and the security line moved quickly. Lots of choices for food and drink.

Floor seats are awful had to stand the whole time and still could not see the stage. Played good money to watch a jumbo screen for 2 hours.

This place has everything you need for entertainment and the blazers play here.

Had a great time here watching my first ever Ice Hockey game. Great food and drinks, brilliant atmosphere.

The Rose Garden is well taken care of, comfortable, the mechanical aspects (sound, displays, lighting) are great, and the general atmosphere is something special.

Moda center is a fun place.
I go to lots of Blazer games, I would give the 5 stars but with this security guy every, time i see him it seems like all he dose is undress women with his eyes.
I feel like he should be doing something besides checking out women all night. even this picture shows how he is.
Women beware!!!!!!!!

Great show getting to prepaid parking ridiculous an hr to go a block

Great place to watch an NBA game. One of the beat in the league hands down

Easy to get to, great food, Blazers games and concerts are always perfect. A perfect arena!

Went to see Mumford and Sons. The staff was friendly and quick. The show was amazing! Getting out of the parking structure was a bit of a challenge, uber or lyft to avoid the parking issue.

Man, beers are expensive here. Phew. People were friendly and helpful

Attended the Disney on ice show a few weeks ago. The show was great. But while going through the front doors i had a terrible time getting through. I have an implanted medical device and can't do through metal detectors. I showed my approved medical card at the gate. One guest service person was great looked it over and told me i was good. The next one kept trying to scan me and have me wall through. I explained and showed my card Again and told them i couldn't go through it after arguing for 6 or 7 min. He tried to use the wand. While the other guest attendant said no you can kill her decice she's fine. I backed away and said no. And he said fine go through very rudely. Pretty dissapointed. I had all my peoper information in hand it should not have been a problem.

Easy to park! Easy to find! Sound inside was great! Food was awesome!

First time at this venue. Not much close by in the area for killing time. Everything inside was nice and well maintained. I don't understand why the food vendors sell sealed bottles of water and then pour it into a plastic cup ? C'mon Portland, that's way out of character, doubling up on waste packaging. Saw a great show. Parking was good.

I love the Moda Center! It's a fun place and the staff does their best to keep it all clean, safe and friendly. The only thing is that you have to pay a ridiculous amount of money for any food or water.

A most excellent concert... Transiberian Orchestra Winter Tour 2019. My wife picked excellent seats in lower balcony, just off center of the show.

I really dislike everything about this venue. Overpriced, terrible seating. Concerts only good if you have floor GA tix. Staff is a real stickler even if you have floor seats and dance in the isle.

Iron Maiden just put on the greatest show I have ever seen, and I have been to hundreds

Went for Bob Seger concert. Well staffed. Mostly friendly. Prices for food and drink are outrageously priced as expected. Prefunk is definitely advised.

A great place to have a good time with family and friends Easy access with the Max lines plenty of parking great place to catche a game

Food was good ,crew incredible friendly and helpful. I give it 4 stars because food and drinks are way to much.

Large but well signed. Staff are generally able to get you where you need to be. Food is also venue prices. Private suites can be hard to find.

You can go wrong going to Blazers game, a winterhawks game or any show at Moda

For 19,000 people in one place, it fills and empties quickly.

Took my son to see Monster Jam Triple Threat here. The entrance was fairly well organized, the seats were clearly marked and there was plenty of space to move around. The concession stands and other memorabilia prices were pretty ridiculous though.

We had a blast friday time being here. Came from out of state to see Iron Maiden. This place is huge and no matter where you are it a great seat!

First NBA game. Go Blazers!!! Great experience. Park in the Annex garage, early, or prepay online for the east west lot.

I really appreciate how the Moda Center lights up their facility at night with colorful variations of blues and reds cascading over the river and highlighting the beautiful downtown Portland skyline as you travel across the Willamette river on one of our many scenic bridges. Thank you for that! Loving you Portland!!!

I had a very fun time watching Portland TrailBlazers vs. Warriors game. The atmosphere was awesome.

Saw Modest Mouse open for The Black Keys. Amazing show. Food and drink is always expensive. Merch was relatively cheap. Staff was great. They made sure everyone was where they need to be and that you could get back to the floor section without issue.

Went to see Judas Priest live in concert here and the place was amazing. Parking is a little bit of a distance, but all in all, am looking forward to seeing another show at Moda in the near future.

Love this place. This is was the place Luka(Mavericks) made the 3 point shot at 0.6 seconds. Best buzzer beater.

Very new nice venue for concerts. I haven't been to a game here yet, but I imagine it's pretty for for that too. There is a nice variety fo food places inside for beverages and food.

Moda Center has some great events. I must say that watching the trail blazers here is the most fun of all the events I have seen here. The onsite food vendors are pretty good. The beer prices are high, but not outrageous. The facilities are very clean - it's very rare that I visit a larger scale facility like this with such cleanliness.

They know how to party in Portland.... in Portland....
