Comcast Theatre Reviews

This will be the only time I will ever attend an event here. So run down. Getting around was very difficult with all the steep inclines. This event was far too big for the venue. We had to settle for a place outside of the arena near a screen due to the large crowds. A drunken man decided to relieve himself a few yards from us against the fence we sat near. The sound system was terrible The artists we're fine and I'm glad I got to see them,only wish it had been somewhere else. We walked from a parking lot at least a mile away to get in and out. The police did a great job with the traffic. The food was good. No complaints with the vendors, just the place itself. The alcohol police needed to be better at watching the over abundance of drunken guests.

I would love to say that this is a cool venue but it's not. When you have assigned seating there's one way in and one way out which totally scares me in case of emergency not kidding.. saw Dave Matthews there tonight he was totally awesome however I don't think I'll go back to this thing you ever again. It's more of a party scene for younger people then it is for music.
..

1st hard to get there due to bad access to area n get ready to walk over a mile
2nd food is terrible n overprice e.i 3 chicken fingers n fries 12 bucks
3rd a beer will cost u 15 bucks a drink 20 bucks, jones beach theatre is cheaper n better by far
4th the venue is nice but if u get tickets on the grass u may not even c the stage. my seats were upfront n staff were pretty cool allowing u to go n take pics close to the stage
5th parking is super hard to find, shows really poor planning when place was but

That was pretty awesome, good experience! My 2nd time in life to see Iron Maiden playing in that stage. First was in 2006, & now. Saturday, August 3. 2019.concert was pretty awesome .

Parking is tight and lots of broken glass. The place is over priced like hell. $15 for tall boys and $9 for a pretzel. Just go for the music and nothing else.

I was disappointed tonight - there seemed to be alot of underage individuals drinking. Also one of the jumbo screens in the 800 section was not working. When I asked I was told that it hasn't been working well all season....

The venue is large, good acoustics, plenty of food options, lots of places to get a drink.

Sounded great but when will the beverage gouging stop?

Sound here is always hit or miss. Instruments are too loud, vocals are too low. Honestly the sound is better out on the lawn.

Wednesday, June 13th, my sister and I attended a "Dead & Company" concert.First off, When we arrived at the theater, I asked where the handicap parking was and I was directed to a lane that would take me there. 45 minutes to an hour later, we finally reached the parking lot.( Less than a tenth of a mile away), I was told that the lot was full and that I had to go to another lot. My only other option was to pay $60.oo for a VIP parking spot.
They had plenty of those. (On my way in I saw at least 5 or 6 spaces in the handicapped section.
Before leaving for the show, we went online to see if we could rent a couple of chairs. The website said, "yes'. When we got to the booth where the chairs are rented, we were told that the only chairs they had were for people who had VIP passes and that they were all sold out. After the show, we went by the chair rental booth and saw at least 30 chairs there.(So much for them being sold out.)
After having to sit on the hard ground for the entire show, my back and my sister's hip were both in considerable pain.
This, after being beat out of $60.oo for a parking space when there were enough handicapped parking spots available, and not being allowed to rent chairs when your website said we could. Again, there were plenty of chairs there.
Is the theater under new management ? I've gone to many shows there in the past and I have never been treated do badly or out right ripped off. ,( Really, $60 for parking?)

The hill/lawn area used for the premium seating is extremely hazardous. My pregnanat wife and I went to a show there and both fell in that area. They don't properly care for the lawn, creating a space for potential harm to come to those attempting to enjoy the show.

The drinks are over priced considering we already paid a ton of money for the tickets. I feel they are just money hungry here and that sucks $23 for a drink is outrageous. But they keep the place clean.

If you complain about parking for nation wide celebrities that came for the fans you suck, are not a fan and should just watch the concert from home.... My first show here was when i was 8 i try to make it to one show a year if possible

Went and say Brad Paisley. Really like it. Would go again

Had a blast. Server was great with a sense of humor

Great venue to see bands. The sound system is top notch. Concessions are pricey but its expected for concerts

Good place for a concert Beer is way to expensive $16

Fun place for a show. Lawn seats are good with the large screens and plenty of space to move around. Parking is easy and free.

First time going here. Had VIP tickets and definitely had great seats to see KoRn.

Always a great time . There is a handicap platform on the lawn for folks like me . Awesome staff are always helpful . Concerts are awesome always !

We had a great time with the family at a recent (Summer 2016) Dixie Chicks concert. Lawn seats with an actual view of the stage!

I always have a good time whether I'm in the lawn or in the seats are in the pit center stage singing all the words

Concert was cancelled half way through due to rain. Money was not returned. Spent more time in traffic than at the concert

The Xfinity theatre was heavy staffed which is great! Staff is super nice about when I was not sitting in my seat. Very run done looking though, old place

The energy is unreak when you go to a concert here! It dies have its rough edges but that should be expected when going to events with the capacity of people they bring in.

Another great show seeing Breaking Benjamin and Five Finger Death Punch again

Nice enough venue with plenty of concession stalls etc. Sound and video screens not amazing but gig was great anyway

Great outdoor venue. Show was awesome. Sound was booming! Concessions are ridiculously priced, but is to be expected at most events.

Cool venue, not to big. Drinks and food are still big venue prices though.

A little worn, and a little out of the way, but the indoor/outdoor environment and the sound quality make it preferable to indoor music halls, generally, and to arena pits like XL, in particular.people

Love lawn seats but when bad weather comes in, the theater keeps you safe when needed. Thanks Xfinity.

Half TVs for the back were off. Aucustics were alright and last time I checked saying you have craft beer and its shock top or Blue Moon. Just say you got dosmetic why you lying Comcast.

Great place to see a concert in ampitheater or lawn if nice weather

If in lawn bathroom situation is pathetic, just a few porta pottys on back wall, lines were quite long throughout most of the show. Drink prices were the highest I've ever seen at any event/venue. If going to a show here you definitely want to spend the extra on premier parking (VIP parking at the center itself), leaving is still a nightmare once you're on the street.

Enjoyed seeing Phil Leah and Willie Nelson there. Weather kept the crowds down so exiting was a breeze.

Great acoustics and theater with lawn in the back. Open to the air. Green Day was awesome in the pit!

Had a wonderful time went to see Counting Crows 25 year tour it was wonderful, they 2nd time seeing the Counting Crows....

The xfinity theatre had enough security around. The only thing that sucked was the price of everything there was a bit over priced...

Poorly designed space with very little guidance for foot traffic within the theatre - people were stumbling over trash and walking on slanted dirt paths around the lawn area. Also, the concession stands at the top of the hill had no marked way around them, so lines were bottlenecked trying to exit, enter, purchase consessions, and get to the bathrooms. People sitting along the perimeter fence blocked even more of the de facto walkway. At the very least, why were there no visible venue personal on the hillside helping direct people? Further, the walk to and from parking areas is along a pitted multi-level sidewalk with overgrown vegetation (vines, prickers, branches, and poison sumac poke at you as you walk) that force people into the road - can someone please at least get a weed wacker and clear the path that thousands of people have to use?! Why is this place so poorly designed? Isn't there anyone who cares about safety, efficiency, and solving problems?

Great to sit on the lawn and watch some of the best music. Eat before you come.

Zach Brown Band - always a great time at the meadows!

Good views from the seats, but exiting is a mess. Too much of a funnel out.

Great facility for concerts. Very clean and welcoming. Definitely recommend going. I know I will!

Only two migos showed up and they only played a couple songs and then left. And they showed up at 11:30... Everyone was tired or left

Free parking is great but be prepared to walk to theatre. Drink prices way too high. Seating is good and the lawn area is worth the cheaper ticket prices

I love the big screens, all the seating and I just really had a good time.

Parking sucks and they charge too much for everything.

Old, run down, beat up, etc. Think of your own adjectives similar and they would likely fit. Especially when they sell way too many tickets for it's size like they did for Farm Aid 2018. It probably wouldn't be so bad if there were less people.

The show was cool the place is dirty . Bathrooms are disgusting the staff is generally nice

My first time ever going and saw Megan Thee Stallion and Meek Mill. The concert Itself was great. I was sitting towards the back and still had a great time, but I only got one drink because they were expensive. There was also a bug in my friends drink. She lady immediately gave her another drink and apologized but we will definitely not be buying drinks from there ever again and one drink should not be 20 dollars if there are bugs in it.

Exiting the parking lot is a nightmare. It shouldn't take an hour.

Absolutely amazing! I've always had a good time every time I've seen a show here and I've been going since it was the meadows. Finally have gotten to experience VIP treatment and absolutely amazing too. Great staff. Great sounds quality. What more could you ask for? Only complaint... drinks are down right insanely expensive!!! Make sure you pre-game enough they've also stopped allowing reentry so no more back and forth from the parking lot. Be prepared and you'll have fun

Staff was nice, made their presence known on the lawn throughout the night. Concession stands and port o potties lines weren't bad.

I went for the Job Fair. I was impressed with the structure of the interview process.

No bad seats and the lawn seating is perfect if you bring a chair or blanket. Also the house bottle wine is well worth it Dark Horse Chardonnay was amazing at $38 a bottle

Good theatre nowhere to sit unless you pay big bucks drinks are outrageous prices. Well organized and run tho . Always a good time

Nice, large venue. Usually a very friendly staff. The lawn seats are actually a great value, save for the one time a speaker blew and they failed to turn it off for the entire set. Lots of great vendors, easy parking & entry.

Got free tickets to attend a fencers here. Easy drive from the city. Parking was a nightmare since I had to park about a 15 walk from the theatre since the other lots filled up. Theater is a huge open air place which allows for a lot of people to pitch out in the grass. I had great seats closer to the stage. There were interesting eats and good drinks. Can t complain!

Traveled to attend a show with my son and amazed how nice and enjoyable it was.

Good appeal only because its the only major nearby outdoor venue around southern CT. Lawn seats are atrocious (poorly maintained lawn and very muddy) and the whole theater needs a major facelift. Tip: purchase the VIP parking, totally worth the extra $10 for close access.
