Bridgestone Arena Reviews

We had a fabulous time. Only complaint is how tight the seating is.

The venue was top notch. The crowd handling was very well planned and executed. Getting around the arena was pretty easy. However, the restrooms could certainly use some upgrades to add efficiency. Definitely recommend the venue overall, though.

Went here back in October for a Black Keys concert. Was a pretty good place, super packed. They have a few places before you go to your seats to buy food and drinks. Prices are high but that's what you should expect at almost any event anywhere.

One of the best arenas I have been to for hockey. Love Preds! and the fans!!

Thank you for having Heroes Media and myself for the NCAA tournament!!

Not bad venue nice size decent set up. Great show tonight Jack white did amazing.

Didn't actually get to make it inside during my last visit, but the architecture is very interesting from the outside.
Next time I'm in town I definitely want to take a look inside and maybe even catch a game.

Always a great time. Bridgestone arena staff are always helpful.

Hockey, concerts, events, this place has you covered

Been here for the 3rd time. No complaint. Expect plenty of time for arrival/ where to park and walk there and time to leave the parking garage as everyone leaves at the same time.

We saw Journey & Def Leppard here. Fantastic concert! Great sound!! Many food options. We got the BBQ pork plate from the stand that said BBQ. It was delicious!! Baked beans were terrific! Mac n cheese was pretty good. There of course are not enough bathroom stalls for the ladies! You would think this problem would have been solved by now. Take more of the men's stalls for this because you don't see men standing in ridiculously long lines like the ladies do. It is absurd. Also, toilet paper and soap both ran out. :( And there needs to be some brainstorming about how to empty out the arena in a quicker fashion. If this could be better/quicker that would be wonderful. Overall it is an excellent venue. The aforementioned criticisms would not keep us from returning.

While the concert I went to see was excellent. It would have been better if I had not missed the first 20 minutes of it due to the lack of crowd control. Waited in line for over an hour to get into the area.

Pretty good place to see a game. I don't really recommend it for a concert due to the awful acoustical properties. Staff here is friendly and efficient. The prices for food and beer is wacko. Still can't believe i paid over ten dollars for a beer!

Close to hotel we stayed at, ssns the Preds game was great.

Its a place where HUGE events happen. What's not to love

The arena is large and the acoustics are great,would be glad to come back here!

Lots of big headliners play here. Located in a wonderful area downtown.

Easy in and out, accessible to so many things, great seating. Nice facility.

Awesome place to see a game!!
Right on Broadway, we just walked in after checking out some restaurants & bars.
Friendly staff, cold beers and tickets were reasonable.
Definitely going to come back to see a game here

Excellent seating, a bunch of menu options with a fast moving line. Bathrooms were clean

Almost no bad seats. Location is easy to access, and crowds are manageable for this size venue

Not a bad place by any means. Watched TOOL there. Good times!

Really great venue but the seats are so small and close together (at least in section 117) that it ended up being a unpleasant experience.

Seating Horrible. No room whatsoever. Tickets overpriced

Went to the Sugarland concert and the acoustics and sound were absolutely horrible.

I loved it , my family and I went and seen the loosing sleep concert there and it was amazing the sound was clear nothing bad happened we had really good seats thank you so much for letting me have the best time for my first time st a concert

Nice place, was on the club level. Food and service very good. Seats not the most comfortable.

Awesome for most events. Only issue is concerts and that stupid light coming from the stage to blind you. Don't take an autistic person may not end well

May 19, 2002, this 8 PM EST 5 PM PST, this is where WWE Judgment Day 2002 took place, a true landmark PPV. First PPV under the WWE name, Stone Cold's last night as a full-time wrestler, Kurt Angle's first night as a bald man. So much went down.

I want to thank Bridgestone Arena, Twicedaily and Make a Wish Foundation.
This was the best night my granddaughter enjoyed in so long!
Everyone was sweet, accommodating and fun!
Just amazing!

Bridgestone area is great! The Preds game was good, except for the drunken fools carryin' on during the game.

Was not impressed with the seating here went to a comedy show and the seats were small and there was no leg room

We visited the Bridgestone Arena with VIP passes to see The Adventures of Kesha & Macklemoe concert. Venue is in great location, within walking distance of several hotels in downtown Nashville.

Staff were very pleasant and conversational. The concert was absolutely incredible - we had front row tickets, and chatted with the security staff before the show, and in between acts. We also had a fun discussion on whether it is pronounced "Mack-la-more" or "Mack-el-more". It's the former :)

Temperature was comfortable and sound quality fantastic. I would definitely attend a concert here again!

Awesome place. Nice arena comfortable and good food.

I work there on occasions with CSC. I Bridgestone is one of my favorite arenas to work. Easy to get around a lot of places to eat and drink and has a charging locker station for your phone. Plus it's Nashville what more do you want!!

Parking in the area has really gone up. Bridgestone needs another garage.

Place is always dirty, but it's an Arena. Food is not that good and very expensive.

Came for a concert. Great sound and good views even from the upper deck. Seats are SMALL. So prepare for a squish. Concession food wasn't bad. Prices are high so be prepared to spend more than expected.

Seen KISS on Tuesday April 9th. It was a fantastic experience. The staff was wonderful. The whole city of Nashville was great. I was really glad to see all the law enforcement around the town, I felt really safe.

Was dropped off by Lyft, easy in ... concert was amazing.

Staff is very unfriendly especially with people with disabilities! They are uneducated on their own policies they publicly post! Worst arena in America!!!

Best place to see some major bands. Walk in able to hear, and leave deaf. Nice staff and very clean

Staff was excellent; the show wasn't as good as I had hoped and we had floor seat tickets. Would've been much better had they arranged the seats a little further apart. We were literally in some folding metal chairs with hard seats and backs and had maybe 6 inches from myself to the seat in front of me. This was Sesame Street Live so at least half of the audience were children and they either want to move around and dance along or be in the lap of an adult so they could see the stage. Not easy to do when you have no elbow room, all seats are at the same height with no staggered set up, so either your view is somewhat blocked or you're blocking the view of people behind you. For the price of the tickets (not to mention the fortune made for concessions and souvenir items) they really could've put a little more thought into the set up.

Need more leg room but still a great place for events.
