Jones & Stokes Reviews

I live I. The bay area, but love this venue for live music

Great venue. Best arena I've ever been to! Lots of things to do in immediate area surrounding arena without needing additional transportation. Sacramento should feel fortunate this was approved and allowed the Kings to stay in town. It will create a ton of revenue for the city

Brand new arena in the heart of downtown. Defintely a place to visit when you're downtown

Lots of vendor options and bathrooms are nearby every section. To my surprise entering and exiting the building was fast even though the place was nearly sold out. Our first visit to the center and my ONE complaint or con would be that the seating aisles are way too narrow. Meaning, everyone you are seated near are forced to stand up to allow you to pass to or from your seat. Boooo!! Lol, overall a good experience.

One of the worst concert venues I have seen. First row of seats on upper level is so close to railing that feet must be placed at an awkward angle, resulting in my feet falling asleep during the concert. Food venues are mediocre, and bottled water isn't even a brand name. Everything is expensive, like most of these venues. Will probably not attend more concerts here.

Watched the Kings play. It was a good time. Not a lot of leg room though.

Outstanding performance and service. Lost key to car and they looked tirelessly to find it and did!

Parking was a disaster. Couldn't find car,there are no signs.

The arena is beautiful. The views are great from everywhere in the arena and the staff is really friendly.

I don't know I didn't like the golden one center to very much the outside is nice but I don't know about the inside.

This is an excellent way to get to see what happening around you.

My first visit to the new arena went there for sac State graduation ceremony all i can say is wow, this arena is truly state of the art. L am planning to attend some Kings games.

Beautiful, modern auditorium. Has a big city feel with all the amenities.

Looks good so far.
And the facilities put most of these historic bay area venues to shame.

Beautiful arena and HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE seating. I'm 6'2'' and was cramped with my toes scrunched sideways into the seats in front! My knees were aching and I had nowhere to stretch them! Forced to get up and miss some of the action. Sad that millions go into an arena but we can't get a cupholder?? Oh, and the designer didn't think about people all leaving at the same time because it's a sh*! show. Added to the night, the overhead monitor above the floor flickered off & on for an hour

Golden 1 Center is beautiful. I didn't care for the security worker who made us throw away snacks/drinks we had for a toddler but other than that, the whole area is beautiful!

Very nice, foods a little pricey but seems to be more and more common lately at venues like this. All in all a great experience each time I go.

Clean. New. Would give it five stars if they drafted Luka Doncic.

The game was awesome and the food was good but the drinks were outrageously priced!

Staff was a bit rude when the event was over. Quick to clean up and kick us out. Not helpful with any altercations that broke out. Lost when we would ask how to get to our seats. They didn't know how to navigate us to our seats. Very strict about staying in your seat.

Great place to see a game or a show, lots of parking, and staff is always helpful.

Great venue. Nobly problem is extremely tight seating.

Nice to have an Arena that brings top acts to Sacramento. Great sound! Not all of the food vendors are open for concerts, so plan accordingly for dinner. I was looking forward to Petra or Paragary's.

It's a very nice arena but, those sits inside are very very inconvenient, we are unable to move our legs,very narrow is the space.

I love the location of the stadium but I was disappointed with the inside of the stadium it was it wasn't that I was just too plain nothing Pleasant to the eye

State of the art facility. Supposedly one of the best in The U.S.

Home of Sacramento Kings NBA Basketball team. A very nice venue.
We went to the Trans Siberian Orchestra concert.

It looked and was designed so amazingly. It had so many beautiful plants as well. You can get ice cream and other foods there as well

Nice place to watch an event. Fine bars & restaurants nearby.

Attended CSU:Sacramento's graduation at this venue and was pleasantly surprised at how great it is. Nice, modern, architecture and an overall clean facility. I miss the older area because there was more parking readily available, but the access to downtown Sacramento is an undeniable plus for tourists.

Saw Disney on ice here. Good for kids and Disney lovers

The Golden 1 Center is a very nice place to go see concerts and watch the ball game

Went just went Sat 2-3-18 and it was son 12 birthday and the staff was very friendly they even gave him free stuff and a certificate and some bday pins and some toys. He was very . We paid 10$ for an large popcorn and 13$ for a beer in the can. But we all went as a family all 7 of us so we had a great time.

Great arena! Good food throughout. Open feeling to the top and bottom levels. Enjoyed watching a concert and a basketball game there, and both experiences were top notch. If only our Kings could start winning some more basketball games sooner than later, that would be awesome!

Saw the PBR Show, it was awsome, hard yo believe you miss that much action watchin on TV

Had a great time watching the game with my friend. Every seat is a good seat in the stadium.

Attended Cirque du soleil, and the ticket checker waved us in without noticing that our seats were flagged for reassignment due to some arena issue. We shopped a bit because we were early then headed to our section. We got to the seats to find them cordoned off and the section attendant sent us to ticket services, they sent us back to the entrance to someone else. While we were orbiting the arena, we missed the first few minutes of the show. Ticket resolution too even longer resulting in us missing even more of the show.

Nice facility no wait at the bathrooms & concession stands they could use some more food options

Love this place! Its so much fun and Kong s games are always fun!!

Good place for concert I really enjoyed this parking easy considering it's exactly downtown

This place was not built for our comfort, it was built to put as many seats as possible to make money. The top seats are dizzying. I think they have bigger seats on a airplane and I'm not talking first class!! Wasted Potential!!!! I won't go back!

The arena is REALLY REALLY nice!!! You can see the score board from almost every part of the arena.

They really constructed this facility poorly. If you're not sitting in the 100 level seats it's not worth it. 200 level is awkwardly built, you'll get vertigo and sick each time. Staff doesn't know how to handle ADA , had me running around to several different guest services offices, and each one telling you to go back to the other. Very poor service .

The golden 1 center event staff are disrespectful to Veterans of this nations armed services and should be ashamed of themselves

Very nice and up to date arena! Lots of technology and cool things to see!

What a beautiful place to go for a game or a concert Sacramento has really stepped up his game on this one

They tried to cram too many seats in which makes it uncomfortable!

A great place for concerts and centrally located in the Sacramento. It's okay because the upper level is seriously lacking the appropriate amazi t of ladies restrooms.

It's new and really nice. Unfortunately for all the hype it's extremely small and not practical.

Great new stadium in downtown Sacramento. Great venue. Spacious regular seats. Good vintage points.

Good local food and beverage selection for an events venue. 4 stars for lower levels. Would not sit nosebleed again due to the strange steepness and poor concert acoustics

This is a great Arena, but not at all worth the price the city paid for it. Using eminent domain to get the land was down right criminal.

Saw Disney on ice good views, friendly staff, and was easy to get in and out

Ridiculously expensive drinks but sound is usually pretty good

Best place and best service. Coming again, for some other concerts.

Voted best Arena in the World by London architects.

Nice and clean, clean bathrooms, food is pricey which is expected, but the 3 stars is for the safety of the upper level seating. I feel like I'm going to tip over walking down the narrow stairwell.

FIRST TIME HERE TO SEE DISNEY ON ICE. VERY GREAT PLACE TO SEE A SHOW OR SPORTING EVENT.

The unobstructed view might be great for a sporting event but the acoustics were terrible for a concert. The sound was very muddy. Had we not known the songs they would have been very difficult to identify. Definitely will not attend another concert there. Just because it holds 17000 people, doesn't make it a concert venue.

New center is absolutely beautiful. Very CLEAN and fast service in the goods stands. Went to a concert and was very impressed with how great it sounded. Will definitely be back.

Huge! Love the artists they've hosted there! Everyone from Hall and Oates to John Mayer! Comfortable seats, and a very spacial arena for concerts and games!

I know this place looks very nice but they should improve and renovate this upper deck seating to 30 degrees and same thing for Barclays Center too because the steep seats are dangerous for people it can lead them to falling onto the court and die.

This arena is by far the most hype I have been to during a basketball game. I would recommend going here and seeing an event!

Nice and big arena. I was there at the Smart conference held by Dave Ramsey and his friends.
