Apollo Reviews

I had no problem picking up my tickets from the box office when I arrived. Everything was in order with the staff's help. I had a great time.

Apollo theater tour is a must. Mr Apollo has so much charisma.

I really liked the place. Colorful. The theater is literally a monument to black, jazz American culture, but without too much snobbery. The rows are designed so that even from the top floor, the scene is clearly visible. Must see in Harlem.

The atmosphere wad exciting and everyone was there to cheer each of the participants on

I first entered the theater for the Wednesday night AMATEUR MIGHT show, hosted by Capone ..... Immediately a nostalgic feeling overwhelmed me as I walked down the storied hall to the tall oak doors. The view inside is worth the trip to NYC on its own merit.

The next night was the night of my show, inside the Apollo Comedy Club.
Headlining such a major show in such a major venue was validating, to say the least.
The staff is incredible.. From Alice, to Mr White, Mr. Walter, Anthony, & big Wayne... even my dear Ms Gloria...... all under the command of Mr Dwight Jordan.... a man who goes beyond the extra mile to facilitate the artist's every whim .....

And the entire event is produced by the Apollo's "Curator of Comedy" .... the legendary Bob Sumner.

I am blessed to have attended such a historic edifice

The that's so wonderful place to go to and get to see the shows taped live it's enjoyabl the KL.n

Showtime at the Apollo with Steve Harvey..Awesome nonstop laughs one of the greatest NYC experiences you can have

Fabulous venue. Historic! I saw a Miles Davis film recently. Comedy. Tours. You name it. So many activities this important year. Love it.

I love the Apollo theatre! They have amazing shows of all kind. They're very engaging, and it's always a great time.

We saw Nathaniel Rateliff there. It s a fantastic place, brimming with history.

First time ever here and I loved it. I've always wanted to visit The Apollo Theater and thanks to Miss Lauryn Hill that was possible!

A piece of history in a neighborhood worth visiting.

Worth at least one trip. Amazing to be in the audience on amateur night. A real highlight.

If you're planning to visit NY, you MUST stop in Harlem to attend amateur night at the Apollo Theater. The vintage decor, the DJ, the host, the contestants, and the EMPLOYEES, created the ultimate guest experience. Light snacks and drinks are available at the bar, if you're interested! It's a possibility your show will be sold out. So, arrive early to hear the DJ's mix and to avoid being stuck in the entrance line/ bar line while the show is starting. Enjoy! You won't regret it!

It is a historically crafted venue. The staff and performances are fabulous

Here at the apollo theater was filmed the music video of U2 "angel of harlem"

The Apollo is a true Harlem experience. Amateur Night on Wed. Is truly unique. Historic Apollo Tours with Billy Mitchell is a must. Friendly staff professional security team.

The Apollo Theater Rocks/ Can't Wait Till New Kids On The Block Perform

"Amateur show" of Wednesday night. Little real revelation, 2 out of 6. But atmosphere of the room nice and dancing at intermission, in a mythical place. Good atmosphere and good evening for a reasonable cost at 26/30 or $ 36 show from 19:30 to 22h.

Loved visiting the historic theatre, lots of good souvenirs.

An old venue with new shows all the time. In the center of Harlem, great shows, great music. Check it out.

Excellent Showtime! Also Tour Director Billy Mitchell is awesome. He give great Tours.

A harlem monument/staple. known for the showtime at the apollo show. different things go on there like poetry jams and concerts. great tourist attraction.

First time being there and I love it and especially the opportunity to view and take part on stage and rub the tree and had the opportunity to see the performance that night,that was a great thing for me at the age of 71 years old ,something I will never forget, Thank you for giving me that Great opportunity.

First visit to a landmark venue that has hosted a legacy of performers over decades

Very nice place, an unforgettable experience especially thanks to the participation of the public

Historical place, it has lost a little the polish of the best days, but it is worth visiting

Apollo great entertainment for 6 years old and up. Now you can see what happens during the commercials. Did you know the jingle "Nationwide is on your side" was sung, instrumental played, created by a members of the Apollo Band!

Historic and very old place where many American celebrities began to sing ... it needs a reform.

A great historical experience! We absolutely love Mr. Apollo and his tours!

Small seats, no coat check in the winter, so sharing your seat with your winter coat while trying to enjoy the show is difficult.

Bathrooms need redoing, seating is tight but hey its the apollo. So I went to get a drink and I'm not much a drinker, but i asked if the have long island ice tea. The women said no but i can make you one. Now i do t know whats in a long island ice tea but i know it taste like ice tea with vodka. Well i saw this women putting Coca-Cola in the drink and when i got back to my seat and taste it was nasty. Well the drink and a Coca-Cola was $19 i felt obligated to drink it which i did. It helped that
Mo'nique made me laugh so hard that it help with forgetting how bad the drink was.

Awesome ushers and staff. Friendly and attentive. Gave 5 stars despite the venue not having anyplace where patrons could charge cell phones. I couldn't capture moments with my favorite artists because BOTH of my cells died. Had trouble finding my ride for the same reason. Apollo please upgrade to provide charging stations or change your policy. This was a sold out show! #EPMD #RAKIM #LOX #BRANDNUBIAN #SMIFNWESSUN

I mean it's the Apollo! Rich history and heritage. So glad this place was restored. Must visit and experience for yourself.

Beautiful magic .... when you are there hold your breath as if at any moment the artists of the photos attached to the walls would come down to perform in that mythical theater

Must see tour when in NYC worth the drive or subway to Harlem.

"lovers night" on Wednesday night. $ 26 per person for a great evening. There is only amateur name because we had the right to a superb show in the American style. If you are in the area I highly recommend going for a ride.

I had a great night at Apollo Theater. The show was so awesome.

One should visit the old clubs in Harlem once in a lifetime. Here you feel like you are back in the old America and still in the middle. Get such places.

Great cisting the Apollo again. As a child growing up I remember legendary James Brown and Marvin Gaye. Etc.

Amazing. Historic. World famous. Perfect sound and lighting. Helpful and friendly staff from production to Front of House. Thank you for being you, Apollo!

Mythical Theater, where the greatest of Harlem have occurred

Very good place, I came here to attend the Ozwald Boateng Fashion Show, what an amazing night !

Harlem is the place to be for black culture and Caribbean food. Since I made it during the time of year in the offseason where Steve Harvey is not doing Showtime at the Apollo, there are other X that are being done on several days of the week like amateur night. When you first go inside of the Apollo there is a desk area where you can purchase your tickets or souvenir items such as t-shirts and things. You actually have to pay for tickets to go beyond their in order to see the inside venue.

A Harlem landmark what better place? There's no Harlem without the Apollo. I've sung here and have come here to see the shows. Such history here. Xoxo

My first time to this theater. Monique was Magnificent and the theater was decent.
