Comcast Theatre Reviews

Chris brown was awesome. the lines were not as bad as i thought they would be and the seats were great. no issues with the crowd and parking is the only nightmare....but overall great experience.

First time here! Clean, safe and just an overall awesome experience! Will definitely be coming back!

Really enjoyed it, even from the lawn the audio was still excellent

Had a blast. Parking isn't as bad as people say considering it holds 70K people. Have always enjoyed this place to see concerts. Korn was my first time being right up front and wow....great time for sure!

It's a nice place to come too with family and friends

Very clean and everything looks great. A little expensive for food and beverages. But you don't have to buy them.

Other than slipping in vomit (from many people over-drinking) and catching a free high from all the weed smoke it's a good time. Staff is really nice, some too nice if you ask me. The last show I attended there were a ton of younger individuals throwing up and passing out and staff should have removed them but didn't. :( besides that the setup at this arena is my favorite in ct. Drinks are very pricey but you get that with any venue. The free parking is a big plus but is a nightmare to get out so extreme patience is needed

The lawn is awful, to many drunks, not enough security. My 10 year old son saw a man masterbating by the port-a-pottys, thank goodness he didn't know what he was seeing. He asked me why the man was taking so long and when myself and the ladies s sounds me looked over we were horrified. I'll never go there again.

Parking and traffic were a nightmare... and then we spent 20 min in line to use a port-a-potty. Show itself was fantastic but I will never come back to this venue.

Great venue to see a concert. Parking is expensive and the free parking is a bit of a hike. Great drink selections from beer to wine and everything in between.

Too bad good entertainment had to be ruined by greed i.e. too many tickets sold

parking is real bad, had to walk almost a mile from where we parked, 20.00 was the cheapest, 40, 50, 60 dollars if thats all that was left i would have drove home
garbage all over the roads going to xfinity center. not from this concert. trash everywhere, sidewalk over grown with trees,

Theatre is pretty big. Has the lawn which is outside tickets for cheap and regular seats for good prices. Has tons of options for food when you first walk in and drink/snack stands on the lawn. Only problem is the prices of the drinks and food.

Everyone is so friendly and helpful! Parking was so fast and friendly!

Went to see The Heart Tour with Sheryl Crow. We were ushered into the VIP line for immediate access inside, mainly b/c our friend was on crutches, lol. The staff was really helpful in accommodating our group to stay together. Once inside, we decided to reserve our spot on the lawn furthest from the entry section. There's much more space to breathe and has easy access to the food & beverage stands on that side. Anyway, the concert was Awesome!! Had no problems hearing or seeing any of the singers on stage.

Parking is terrible needs to be better organized very disappointmented for my first time there but the bands were awesome

been going here for years. great venue.great setup.

great place to see live music, the Outlaw fest was awesome,go Willie!

The lawn seats aren't too bad. You can bring in your own chairs without much issue. Only downside is smoking is allowed.

Great venue to see a show. Easy parking, plenty of concessions and lavatories.

Always love going here for shows but they need to work on their camera's With what they show on the big screens for people sitting on the lawn.

Great venue for a show. Don't pay livenation for parking...tickets are cheaper on site when you arrive. Paid $35 on line and parking was only $20.

Go extremely early if the band playing is slightly well known; this place gets extremely crowded and cars are usually at a stand still. VIP parking is a must.

It was great, the food was good, you can order and they deliver to your seat, the seating is a bit dirty though

The workers there are very helpful and friendly. Even their security detail.

Your under a roof but at the same time your enjoying the outdoor weather. Great sound.

Great place to see a concert. But parking in and around the area is a RIP off. Be warned. $30 $40 or more.

Great place to see concerts in spring, Summer and fall

Awesome place. Loud enough the way a concert should be. Plenty of food. Plenty of beer although at 15 bucks with tax and tip it's expensive. I'd definately go ba k though

Great sound even on the lawn for an outdoor venue. Easy to get to but tough to get out of the parking lot. Beers and food are pricier than most venues. Small water is 12 oz bottle for 5.00. Tip: bring an empty water bottle as they have plenty of free water fill stations. Chair rentals are 10.00, nice low beach style chairs with cupholders and you don't have to bring them back to the booth. You can bring your own chairs, they have to be the beach style or kinds that fold into their own carrier. If you are on the lawn sit halfway up so that you can see over the heads of those who have seats but are standing up (see photo), otherwise you'll have a hard time seeing the act on stage and will be watching a video screen all night. Too high up and you are at the roof level peering through.

Last night we attended the Brad Paisley concert I was not impressed that he didn't come on till 10.

Cheap lawn tickets. We have fun when we go, but that's because we create our own fun. Bathrooms are meh (as to be expected), drinks and food are overpriced (as to be expected)...sound system and screens are decent though. Not terrible as far as venues go

Sound was very good! Guess they have trouble with their monitor's the pictures had a lot of broken up pixel squares .

A hard venue to move around in. No regular sized beers only 19 Oz's and above, which for most people means it's warm before you finish it. Long walk in from parking lot. Show quality is very good however.

extremely well maintained venue. The staff is professional and cooperative.

Giving my all to see and experience what the Xfinity Theatre has to give. Hey security here I come!!!

No walkway, overcrowded, poor traffic control both to and from the concert, lack bathrooms, poor security, every other person was drunk. State Fire Marshall and DCP liquor control should look at this venue.

Wasn't as goid as i expected no breakfast in morning

The venue is fine but they have to do something about parking it is TERRIBLE. Also, there needs to be better coordination with the city of Hartford when there are multiple events in the same evening.

Fun outdoor concert venue that hosts a variety of shows throughout the summer. Drinks and food available inside the gate, and at the back of the lawn section--pricy however, with domestic beers starting at $12. Watch out for lawn ticket 4 packs of tickets for some savings. Shows are rain or shine if you're in the lawn.

Nice venue! Can't see talent from the lawn area without the screens but overall it is a good venue. Prices for beverages are outrageous, even a bottle of water was $5 or $7. Good plus, you can bring in a sealed water bottle and there are free refill stations. For lawn seats you can bring beach chairs or a blanket to sit on. If you forget, at the concert we went to, they were selling blankets for $20.

This was my first time at this venue, it was fun but I was amazed by the amount of drunk kids both inside and out. During the concert you could see on several occasions in the parking lot (visible from the lawn section) ambulances that were called in for drunk people. I will say once inside it would have been very difficult for an underage person to get served.

Outdoor area is great. Stage and seating area is dated. Sound was okay. Screens and videos were embarrassing. Security is inefficient, checking tickets each time you leave stage area. Wristbands go a long way, for over 21 and admittance.

Xfinity theater is the best venue in Ct....great place for a concert!!!

Shoving far too many people into a space that is not very secure and has awful viewing angles from.the sides due to trying to fit too many people in there. There's better places to see a show.

Awesome Venue.. A bit high on prices for Everything

If your on the lawn, you will have to walk all the way up the lawn or all the way around the she'll to use a bathroom. The concessions are really expensive.

Great experience. Great show. Got in and out fairly quick. Will definitely be coming back for more concerts.

Lots of room to spread out on the lawn. Simple to get in and out. Decent restrooms for a concert venue. Not hard to get your car in and out. Free parking available. You can definitely bring kids here if you want. Overall, a great experience.

Parking was $40. Nice inside area. Enjoyed the experience.

Will forever be "The Meadows" to me, but this venue has come a long way in the past 10 years even thought the name has changed as frequently as the seasons. Still Connecticut's best outdoor arena.

A great place to tailgate and view awesome concerts in a nice atmosphere.

My FIRST live concert.
It was absolutely awesome!!!

I've been here several times for Spring/Summer concerts. The venue is a standard outdoor theatre experience with covered seats closer to the stage and a big grass hill behind. The steps up to the top of the hill are rather treacherous and slippery when it rains as are some of the other hills in the space. The event parking is terribly coordinated, so expect to sit for hours as you try to exit (not to mention sitting nearly as long to even get into the parking area). We've sat in the "premium" lawn area each time, which is literally just inside a small, white, plastic fence on the hill. It's nice to have seats, but the additional features that are promised are either non-existent or underwhelming. The beverage cart is just somebody standing inside with a cooler with the worst beer they have for sale. The separate entrance for these upgraded seats just doesn't exist. The last time we were there, a drunk guy just started peeing in the middle of the premium lawn seating area, exposing himself to everyone around, including children.

Exactly like great woods back home Viva Fall Riva !!! Poison and old ass cheep trick was great

This is a big indoor/outdoor venue. Parking and seating are fine. Good site lines. I went to Shinedown/Godsmack and was very disappointed with the sound quality. The vocals were tinny and distorted. We were in towards the rear of the indoor area, but that's just over 1/2 way up. The sound should have been ok. I've seen both bands 4 times and different venues and they were fine. Not here. Also, one beer costs an arm, leg and your first born.

Great venue! Easy to get to. Free parking wasn't open when I got there so I tried parking across the road but it would've been a long walk. Ended up paying $40 for parking right next to the theatre. Also the men's room was not kept clean

Love all the country shows here. Always a great spot in the summer

Nice venue. Enjoyed my time here. Very expensive alcohol prices and t-shirts were $40-$45, but I guess thats become the norm for concerts.

The place was too small in my opinion for a meek mill concert it is basically a high school auditorium the staff was great and the drinks were worth the money to my surprise it was overall a good experience I just wouldn't go back for a concert.

The venue and staff were really nice, but the concession prices were outrageously high.

This is a really great venue to see a concert. There is ample free parking available at a very short walk. The only issue here is the outrageous prices on their food and drinks. Twenty dollars for a hot dog, fries and a soda is insaine... Plan on being stuck in the parking lot for about an hour when you're going to leave.

It took over an hour to go the last Mile and all the parking was full for Tom Petty concert. The lawn area was so crowded you could hardly move. Worst place to see someone great like Tom Petty. He was awesome, the venue sucks.

The only bad thing about the venue is that after the concert they shove you out of the venue. They're actually quite rude and aggressive about it.

For the ultimate concert experience, General admission lawn seats are the way to go.

Sound was decent on the lawn. Plenty of places to purchase overpriced alcohol

Nice venue to see your favorite band, but $15 beers and $5 pretzels are just a bit too pricy!

Always a good time. 3 stars because the food and drink are extremely overpriced. It doesn't need to be that expensive for them to make money. Beer is 20.00.

Nice place. Good sound. Plenty of food and drink. Parking is always an issue at any big venue
