Segerstrom Center for the Arts Reviews

Go ahead and pay for the valet parking if it's raining. Well worth the money.

Always a great place to watch shows/plays or listen to music.

Great location only exception at times not enough people to collect money for parking which causes delays.

Excellent Venue, great shows.. I really enjoy this place...

We went here to watch a play. The performing arts center is very nice but extremely overpriced. My wife and I each ordered a drink (double) and were then talked into prepating for for another drink to pick up during intermission it was $120 for 4 drinks. It's partly my fault for not asking the price but who would have thought that I cocktail would be $30. I won't be doing that again.

I've seen a lot of great shows here. The theater is beautiful but some of the top seats are pretty far and it's hard to see.

Segrestrom center is a nice venue, but the acoustics could be better and the seats could be more comfortable.

Always welcomed by a friendly, courteous staff for classy, first rate events.

Awesome theater! Seats just felt too small even for the skinny folks in my group.

Such a lovely theatre! Very helpful staff and the place isn t overly staunch about a dress code or having refreshments in the theatre. Clean and classy.

Watched the Aladdin Broadway Musical and it was a memorable experience

Went to see Hamilton...great show in a great venue. They have their act together and get everyone to where they need to be quickly. Not their fault but $40 for a Tee-shirt...sheesh

Great place to see the play! They even have headphones if you really want to get into the music!

Segerstrom Hall is a nice venue to watch broadway plays or shows. Be prepared to be dressed to the nines if you intend on going over here.

Parking - Plenty of parking nearby at that parking structures.

Location - Great location right off the 405 fwy across from the mall.

Prices - Drink and snack prices are the usual going rates for a events center.

Concession - Pretty cool how they allow you to pre pay drinks to be ready during the shows break. Down side our guy poured an exact shot cup into my drink making it weak.

Staff - Mostly all nice staff in the place but did experience that rude one on the line to get in.

Venue - Gorgeous venue with lots of high end finishes and lots of seating do to its multiple levels. Seating was disappointing to me as you have very limited leg room, and you sit up at a very straight upright position.

Overall it was a nice place but that one staff member, weak pours, and seating had me give them a 3 star.

I saw Miss Saigon at the Segerstrom this weekend. What a production! The hall is beautiful in the acoustics were great!

It was great music and environment. Very enjoyment night

Went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The cast were amazing, especially the boy who played Charlie. The music and acting were superb, and the facility is also amazing!!!

The nosebleeder seats feel like youre a mile away from all the action and its impossible to see faces from there but the sound quality is good enough that it doesnt matter. The house crew is amazingly nice and quick and efficient in dealing with any problem.

Very beautiful place. And the vring very good shows. The only thing I'm not sure if the have facilities for wheelchairs. All the place are stairs.

Walked into a mess for Saturday Shen Yun show. We had tickets, but were turned away. They (Sergerstrom) handled it so very poorly. Would not help us. Our seats were there empty because they would not check to solve the mystery. We lost out on the show that our daughter paid for as a gift to us. Very disappointed in Sergerstrom.

Parking is $12 and it usually takes a long time to empty the parking structure.

Great venue! I saw Shen Yuen!
Great staff!

Great place to attend Broadway shows and fun events. Parking is 12 dollars for their parking structure. I have parked in the south coast mall parking lot too.

Amazing theater to see amazing shows.
And seating on the second row from the stage, MY FAVORITE!

Acoustically superior, comfortable seating and glamorous surroundings.

The building itself is maybe more along the lines of four stars, but it's kept in very decent shape. The staff are so helpful and friendly six stars. Finally, the production I went to see there was worthy of five stars, so...

We've been coming to events here since it opened in the 80's. Great layout offers seating for everyone. What was just one theater is now a "Center."

Beautiful venue. Love going to Segerstrom for ballets and shows.

Extraordinarily beautiful facility with amazing acoustics

One of the great performance arts venues in the country.

Beautiful place with amazing acoustics! Had a blast celebrating my birthday here!

Nice, modern and easy parking. Friendly staff also.

The hall is immaculately maintained. The staff is friendly. The seating allows anyone to see the stage. It rests in an upscale area that is great for entertaining just about anyone. It's right off the freeway as well. It's an excellent venue.

Aladdin was wonderful... Orchestra was outstanding!

Miss Saigon was ridiculously good!!! Absolutely loved the show!

We enjoyed a matinee showing of the nutcracker here. Finding the venue and parking was very easy. The parking structure was very convenient and we felt $12 for parking was fair. The concert hall was very easy to navigate and there was a large usher presence to help anyone with questions. The bathrooms show some age but were very clean and functional for large numbers of people. Concessions were somewhat limited but you can get a snack or a drink, we didn't go there for the food. We sat on the orchestra terrace and felt our seats were great! We will see future shows here.

Seats/ rows are bigger than expected. We will be looking forward to another show soon.

the performer (patti luPone) was great, as always. but NEVER go to this theatre if you can't sit in the front half of the orchestra or in the top tier or two FACING the performer; i've been stuck twice BEHIND the performer and it was miserable, except the second time i refused to sit there and because the theatre was only 1/2 full (a shame!) i moved to a seat facing the stage; i see plays once a year in nyc and have never seen a theatre this poorly designed with seats behind the stage on any of the acrophobic tiers; they are horrible, and mgmt at the shows knows little to nothing; at the "manhattan transfer" show, 1/2 the "..transfer" was missing, and the other 1/2 announced and apologized for that at the beginning (but had "fill-ins" for the MAIN 2 players!); should have gone immediately and gotten a refund... when i mentioned it to mgmt, they didn't even know that 2 of the 4 key players were absent! so.... beware of where you're seated AND what you're seeing...

One of the best venues in southern California. Modern, big, beautiful and very high quality audio makes it a memorable experience.

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory was GREAT! Tickets still available...

Visited for a business networking event. Excellent accommodations and service. Highly recommend for business functions

Great place. 2 halls. The smaller one is more acoustic. Phantom of the Opera wasn't good though. $12 parking and sometimes only cash is accepted.

We watched Miss Saigon here and this place is great! Parking is convenient and lots of food options.

Such a beautiful venue, Blue Man was amazing, great experience!!! The pride of Costa Mesa, always great events

Excellent & beautiful venue featuring Broadway touring pkays, musocsl groups & various other shows.Ample parking & easy in easy out !

Beautiful theater. We watched the Blueman Group play and it was amazing, my kids and I loved it.

Great place for concerts saw riverdance there January 2 2016 as a family

Horrible theater. Ushers are very rude, I will never gor there again. I think I heard rats in the aisles as well!

Had a great, helpful experience when calling for tickets recently.

I really enjoyed going to Segerstrom to see School of Rock. The talkback with the cast was amazing, the hall itself is amazing. I love the little cafe they have, seats and prices are more than perfect. The only complaint I have is not everyone gets to go to the bathroom during intermission.

Well organized with rush tickets for students and seniors

Every seat is a good seat here!! Nice place to see a show. We saw Motown the Musical here....AWESOME!!

Visited relatives in LA who treated us to event at center...certainly was fantastic...venue is perfect..show was great...was a perfect ending to our yearly Calif escape from the cold n snow of northeast...we will be back.

This place is amazing went to see Wicked and I just fell in love

Great first experience visiting this location. Purchased tickets with easy and Ericka was awesome.

Was very big and beautiful! Outside was a beautiful fountain where you could take pictures. The inside had stairs and If I remember correctly 3 elevators.

Enjoyed watching Jersey Boys here, this is a great place to enjoy musical theater, highly recommend it!
