Shoreline Amphitheater Reviews

Too much walking and I'm in good shape. The lawn was wet envelope thought they rent chairs for $10 it's not worth carrying to seating area.

Great place to come watch and listen to great concerts. The lawn area is cheaper than the seats but lawn area can get cold during fall and winter months.

This is a really fun venue to hear any type of live music. Digital screens give you an alternative view of the stage. The only negative is traffic. It can take a bus or car over an hour to get off highway 101 and drive to parking. Arrive early and hang out is your best bet. Beware the evening winds, even in the summer. It gets cold here (60F or lower in a summer evening!)

We went to see Judah and The Lion, Jimmy Eat World, and Incubus. Our seats were on the lawn, but we still had a pretty good view of the stage. The sound was awesome from where we were: loud, but not deafening, and very clear. The venue itself is clean and easy to get to. I've been to the Shoreline for many shows, and I plan to continue going back!

This place was amazing! Saw Panic! At the Disco and Weezer and it was an awesome night:) great service from everyone there

Nice big space to watch a concert. Sound was great even very far back on the grass.

It was such amzing experience that i will never forget

Wasn't in love with the artist but still had a pretty good time, lawns are the best!

Great venue to see live music... If only it was easier to get into and out from the highway...

OK space. Can be tough to see if you're short, and people don't stay in their seats.

Really good chicken fingers and worth a weeks pay to get them. Sometimes you can negotiate extra chicken and no fries. And sometimes another patron will buy them for you if you let them cut pretending they are your friend.

Nice place, just bit good enough for the tech conference

Great venue .People in No Cal are so much more nicer than So Cal . Jamez , Kirk , Lars , made the right choice 30 some odd years ago !!!!! Cliff was pretty smart guy !!!!

My favorite venue. I've seen tons of shows there the last 30 years

Zac Brown was amazing it's always a blast on the lawn!!

Loved the concert Spite waiting in line for handicap seating for a hour.

Absolutely love this venue!! The Amphitheatre is maintained wonderfully and I am always graciously accomadated with seating for my disability. Thanks Shoreline for the great service and wonderful concerts you have there,

This venue is great! Good bands come through here, and the grounds are nice. They have a wide selection of food and beverage choices. Of course the prices on food and drinks are high, but that is to be expected. However, plan ahead and you're allowed to bring in your own food and drinks. Just check their website to see the restrictions on what you can and cannot bring in. The only downside is that it takes a long time to get out of the parking lot.

Worst place to see a concert! The organization needs to solve the traffic problem!! Will never go to another concert at this venue even if someone gave me tickets!!!!

Really nice music venue, but $20 beers and $5 bottles of water. Unreal.

Great experoence at Google I/O but too many people there.

If you know what you are doing this place can be a fun place to go

Nice venue. Usually traffic to get there is ok. There are multiple routes, one via amphitheater parkway and the other one via shoreline.

Venue is open, so weather plays a significant role. Usually it's nice and cool in summer evenings but it may a get a bit too cold for outside.

Inside the venue they have few options to eat. The good thing is that packed food from outside is allowed. Water bottles must be sealed otherwise they won't allow it.

This has to be the hardest venue to get to and from. None of the staff has any idea where anything is. But they know the schedule... don t park anywhere near this place.

This is one of my favorite venues anywhere to see a show. Great fans, great staff, comfortable lawn and an overall fantastic vibe. I enjoyed 30 years of Bridge School benefits (not everyone, but enough) I just returned for two nights of Dead & Co. We go to shows all over the country and this is one of the better venues

Wow, my friends and me saw Thirty Seconds To Mars perform here and we absolutely loved every second of it. Such a great place and the stuff is very friendly!

Friendly staff
Low security concern
$15 beer can
Wide/enough space on seats

I wonder if it s possible to buy tickets physically at the entrance in advance to avoid LiveNation Fees

Decent selection of local beers on tap at outrageous prices

Staff was awesome. Venue unbelievable. Bay area wrather beautiful. CONCERT AMAZING!

Their parking situation is horrible. I had movie tickets for the theater at the same exit, and couldn't get within 2 miles of the theater because the Shoreline theater can't process their parking without a backlog shutting down the rest of the town.

Warped tour was awesome, but Shorelines staff need to learn how to me more friendly, instead of yelling at people. I understand there is a lot going on, but when you have 5 different employees telling you different info and then getting yelled at for it. Not cool.

I've been there for the Google IO. The venue is really amazing!

Only things I didn't like were the seats, kind of foldable, you stand up and they fold automatically. Other than that satisfied with structure design and layout.

Sure was a fun show at a great venue. BUT, come prepared for an extremely difficult and/or time consuming transportation infrastructure. There is one way in and one way out. 20000 people arriving and leaving makes it for a LONG walk or a LONG wait on the road to the parking.
Just be ready and bring along snacks. Deep Breath. Enjoy the show.

Great location for Google IO 2017 and I would love to see a show or concert here.

Great venue, always a good atmosphere and great acoustics.

Nice venue and beautiful views and holds lots of people. But everything to buy there is so outrageous its unaffordable. 3 sandwiches... without fries.. rand me $60. It's pretty crazy how expensive everything is and the lines got crazy and food trucks ran out before the main act went on

I especially enjoy the lawn seating and how open everything is... Yet the acoustics are like you're sitting right down in front...

Best July 4th celebration. San Francisco sympathy orchestra plus vocalist. This year Capathia Jenkins. Thank you Mountain View

This place is great! I saw Weezer here and was seated on the lawn. The lawn inclines so everyone has a good view of the stage although it is a fairly far away. There were lots of food and drink options but I didn't check them out. I only got one drink, a beer with a shot of Jameson - $23, from the sky bar at the top. The price may seem steep but it's what I expected at an event venue like this. Hopefully coming back here in the future!

Very good concerts you can see here. The general area is so fun in late spring and summer. Ticket prices are depends on the artist. Food and drink is a bit overpriced

Went to the "Last" Warped Tour here and it was blast. Very spacious area, although it was PACKED. Hot day + lots of people = Sweat and Sunburns

Venue its self is great but leaving the parking lot SUCKS. No direction or control. No attendants anywhere but sitting on the sidelines. So plan on sitting in your car for an hour or 2 just to leave.

Good venue but security is AWFUL. Told us to go to a different line but then when we got to the front they made us go back to the original line. Good venue just be prepared to wait in security line forever

I have seen Foo Fighters and Cage The Elephant with Beck here. Public transportation options makes booking rooms and travel to the venue convenient. This is a large outdoor arena accommodating thousands of people however there is ample access to food and beverage vendors. Access to seats is well organized and the nighttime temperatures are perfect! Coming from North or Southern CA or regions surrounding Shoreline Amphitheater is only a day trip away.

Traffic management out of the area is always poorly done.

Love the mellow fun feel of good live music outside. One of my favorite concert venues!

Amazing shows and the people are always super nice!

They have added a really impressive selection of micro-brews over the last few years. Lots of food options now also. This is a nice outdoor venue for concert.

Having lawn seats here means you are going to watch a TV while sitting in the grass.

Everything was great except such a long way from parking.

Great outdoor venue. It gets cold so bundle up. The grass tickets are cheap, but not worth a contact high or the crazy crowds.

Excellent structure, very good place for shows and events.

Avoid this place if at all possible, unless you have a limo drop you off and pick you up, OR pay $60+ for VIP parking. If you're forced to park in one of the back lots, you'll spend up to 90 minutes or longer waiting to exit. It took us over 90 minutes to get in bc parking is horrendous. And up to 2 hours to exit. There is only way in, thus one way out. We will never return here again. Another minus, the bathrooms are decrepit and gross. Food is poor and expensive. I warned you.

Good location. Old, crumbling venue. Needs a tear-down and re-build. Look to Mountain Winery for inspiration.

Good concert venue, everything is so expensive...$5 (at least) for a bottle of water

Every show I have attended at this venue has been amazing. Security is quick to check people in and there is always somewhere to find a drink!

Allows outside food, large clean bathrooms that rarely have a line, wonderfully huge lawn, good acoustics, and love the big screens & camera work at concerts. Food and drinks are of course very expensive though.

Started coming to Shoreline some 28 or so years ago and it's been about 22 since I've been here. Love Shoreline.

Great venue for music..
T R A I N !!!

Shoreline Amphitheatre is home to so many great events. I have grown up watching the shows here from my teenage years to now, and it is still a great place to be. I have seen the best concerts here and they have always been unforgettable.

The only gripe I have about Shoreline is that parking is an absolute nightmare. My advice is to park far away from the area and walk over. You'll feel better without all the frustration.

Fun concert venue. Plenty seating in the front with big lawn. Lots of good stuff around outside for snacks and drinks. Have normal beer and premium stuff. Of course drinks are super expensive. Getting in and out takes some time
