Oakland Coliseum Joint Venture (ORACLE Arena & McAfee Coliseum) Reviews

Oakland Athletics are my team. Stadium is old and has issues but it reminds me of good times. Been going to the coliseum since I was a kid. Before Mt Davis. I've been taking my son since he was 6 months old. Three years later, he loves to yell, "Let's go Oakland." More good times.

We went to the A's game. The seating is very good. I think that there is great views of the field no matter where you sit. The only complaint was the food prices. Parking was a breeze to get in and out compared to other cities.

A good place to see a professional baseball or football game.

Food could be better. Good value to take your kid to a game during the week or play hooky from work.

Dirtiest Collesium I've ever stepped foot in. The staff is very pushy and rude. The food is overpriced and disgusting. I wont forget to mention rat infestation there. I mean how are rats in the vending machines. Not to mention the fans here are unkempt drunk idiots who clearly dont have manners. Hopefully someone is able to revamp this place.So unorganized and disgusting. This looked decent from a far but the closer you get the trashier ur appears. This place is so disgusting from the people who were here to the food. Luckily they stop serving at half time to all the obnoxious poorly kept raider fans. I know it's a Coliseum but there should be a clean up crew at all times. Like most events food is overly priced; here the food is cold, unseasoned and unappetizing. This location needs an extreme makeover from the employees hygiene, attitudes, appearance to the Coliseum itself. Bring your own snacks and blanket.

Overall experience was fun filled and suites are spacious

Great ballpark/sports venue. Parking is expensive but that's typical. Lot is filled with true fans and a vibrant tailgate scene. Arrive early!
Inside there's a lot to offer all kinds of visitors. The Treehouse is a great indoor/outdoor bar and viewing lounge with pong pong tables and shuffleboard. Large screens for broadcast coverage. Good food from the usual ballpark/stadium fare of hot dogs and beer to dynamite BBQ and beyond. Gets better every year.
Rest easy with drinks indoors while you watch the action behind large windows at the outfield lounge. Enjoy several great options for beer and food throughout. I recommend the Drakes tap near sec 106 for heavier (and stronger) beer. The Denoganizer!
Staff is pleasant all around and there's a passionate fan base here in Oakland. Let's go Oakland!

A weathered stadium that is showing its age. Still a great place to tailgate. HIGHLY recommend the tailgating experience.

Beautiful stadium
Construction so bad around

Very basic an organized sports venue. Food is average but bag policy is liberal so bring your own meal

Very enjoyable and so easy to get to for handicap person and seniors.

FANTASTIC staff and personal attention from the staff.

Warrior Game! You can t go wrong watching the Dubs!

It's a good place to see varieties of shows and games

Loved it. Tail gate parties, football and amazing service

games there are really good. Food was good. Watch out for people on the other team they can be crazy!

I can't give it 0 stars, but that's what it deserves.

Ive been coming to the Coliseum since I was a kid in the 70's going to A's games and Raider games with my dad. I remember all the years of Day on the Green, great bands playing all day in the 80's. For its bad reputation, ive never had any trouble at any event. Parking prices, outrageous, bathrooms have long lines and can be gross, but always a great time!

The Raiders are my team, but I kind of dread going to the stadium. Last time I was there....2 fights and took more than 2 hours to walk across the bridge. Everyone who knows, knows you are literally on the verge of a huge disaster if something goes wrong on that walk way.

Old but classic it was bucket list stuff for me raider nation welcomed my bud & me like we were family the 3000 mile trip was so worth it. The nation is the best. Wish could get group pic that some folks took. Loved it

Old and worn out. Can't wait to see the one in vegas

Is holding up reasonably well in it's old age but needs to be torn down and redone or re-purposed

Good food, seating, and staff. I would come here just for fun.

Very unique stadium that can be converted to football stadium

First time at a raiders game and I had a blast. From the outside the stadium looked very old and worn down. Defintely in need of an update. But the inside experience makes up for it. The atmosphere is amazing and the food and drink options are satisfying

Place is filthy and outdated, with very few people at the A's game.

As a Colts fan coming to a stadium it was fun. Fans were great, food was great, seats were great. Overall it was a good time and met some cool Raider fans.

Went to see a GSW game. Big and spacious parking. Cost of parking is a rip off but its convenient. Easy to locate your seat.

Huge improvements since last there 4 years ago, great new scoreboards, cool new bar and viewing area called the treehouse out in left field..and much better food in general..saw the A'S play.good seats .and a beer fest to add to the day .

An amazing experience with such a disappointing amazing ending with the Warriors losing but to my surprise getting into the parking lot was a breeze all of maybe five minutes getting out of the parking lot of Breeze all of 5 minutes food is pricey but the energy is over-the-top the camaraderie amongst the people young and old is amazing to see that many people in one place Happy I liked it can I get tickets for Sunday's game let's go Warriors

I went to two A's games. Had a great time. Don't believe the bad things you hear about the place.

Old, cozy stadium that has a bit of the old school baseball feel. Concessions are a little less expensive than the new parks like AT&T, but parking is still $20.
We went to see Green Day here. It's a weird layout for concerts where certain parts of the reserved seating are not suitable (too far).

Went with my dad , loved it , got good seats , great view of the game, and saw everything and raider nation made it 3 times better than it already was . Overall I loved it and would love to go back

I took a trip out to Oakland from Los Angeles to see a Raiders game for the first time and I loved the hype and energy from the fans here. Super wild. The drive to get here was a bit slow with everyone trying to get there at the same time. There's many lots to get in from depending on where you are sitting at the coliseum to accommodate where you're driving. I happened to get Lot D so from there, finding parking kinda sucked because it was pretty much hunting for a spot anywhere close to the bridge(located by a train station that you'd have to walk to get to the entrance (maybe 1/4 mile to get technical) but the whole walk wasn't that bad.

Would have given it a 5 but they need more workers at the concession stands in the 3rd level. Lines move slowly due to not enough help.

The ride on BART was great and the A's blowout game against the Angels made it even better!

Doesn't get enough love. It's a great experience and the staff tries hard. The product on the field sometimes...

It's OakCo. It's old and crappy and legendary! Deal with it.

Excellent concert arena, up there with Madison Square Garden but with better acoustics.

Stadium is not covered. .. and we had just caught a game day with rain. Arrival with BART is OK. Typical supply. For every European, an experience is certain to experience a game live! It was one for us. tickets are easy to order online. Half a day before the game.

Although it's "old" (1966, 1996 renovation), it STILL remains a decent place when used for an NBA, NFL or MLB game. Both indoor & outdoor arenas have there lots of on-site parking, & are very close to a BART subway station. The grass field is symmetrical & spacious, with few sight obstructions, though infield seating isn't particularly close to the action. Baseball tix are affordable, the videoboards are large and concession offerings are usually good. Added outfield seating blocks most of the East Bay hills from view. The indoor venue has ample capacity & is a great arena, except that the corridors are not sufficiently wide enough for large crowds.

Great new area for the kids by sections 230. Lines are super short and efficient. The staff here is incredibly friendly.

Wonderful people took r granddaughter for the first time and her birthday

Ok experience. Ok for a old stadium. Not enough concession stands open, no view. Nice people work there.

Place is a dump and a half. How professional teams play here I have no idea.

For being as old as it is and one of the last of the multi-use facilities in the NFL this really wasn't that bad. Way better than Qualcomm in San Diego. I was even better seeing the Seahawks beat the Raiders here.

Kinda outdated and needs to be replaced. Bit still fun to got see am A's game.

It s great things it s old and famous but sorry it s so crazy when it has a game a lot of cars and no parking it s Bother people who live there

My experience was GREAT and has always been GREAT since 1968!!! GO A's

Nice stadium, they cut you off in the last 2 innings and the parking here is crazy in price and size... to be expected from a MLB event.

Great atmosphere to enjoy a ball game, food was good, and security was fast and easy

I'm a die hard Raiders fan and this stadium is so old. They could use better vendors and there is horrifically bad cell phone service. It's also small compared other football stadiums.

Amazing staff and great facility, it enhances events performance !

Great game had my son (11) raving. Park is aging, but clean. Plenty of good seats, some below box-office prices. Seems like a football stadium, with glassed-in boxes high up in center field. Food was ballpark food. Safe, convenient travel on BART. As an out-of-towner, fine experience.

This is where the football team the raiders home is ... I never got to watch the game here but it does look majestic I hope they win the Superbowl one day

Excellent experience very helpful and great food. Great atmosphere to watch a baseball game
