Shoreline Amphitheater Reviews

Only issue I've had with this place is that they would not let me bring in my wallet with chain attached inside the venue.
I found this absolutely ridiculous considering I've been to hundreds of concerts us flown on planes with it..and of course, there were others inside the venue wearing chains..seems as though there needs to be set guidelines for what and what can not be brought in.

Went there for Google IO 18, loved the vibe. You'll definitely need sunscreen of visiting in summer. Lots of open space. The ampetheatre is like half the size of a football stadium . I saw ATM signs all over but could not see an actual ATM machine.

Sound is very bad (loud but not clear) even in reserved seating area. Staff seems nice and professional.
Free parking, but things are so poorly organized at the end of the event. Pedestrians, food vendors recklessly crossing traffic, cars going in different directions blocking each other. Expect an hour just to get out of the parking lot.

Parking is going to be an issue everywhere, but if you park about 20 minutes (walking) it is pretty decent. The venue is always great and the lawn is always a good value for the price/view/sound.

Huge amphitheatre with a capacity to accommodate at least 4000 people.

The show was great. But live nation needs to get their act together horrible customers service.

Great concert. The food was cold, greasy and not good

Obviously your here too see a show. Lawn is great if you want to stretch out.

Well, if you go to the Bridge School Benefit, it's a whole different story...

Totally confusing parking situation. The traffic control was non- existant considering the number of people at the venue. Took 35 minutes to get the 2.5 miles to the parking lot.

Awesome! Dave Mathew's did not disappoint! If you have lawn tickets, get there super early!

Easy in, easy out, comfortable arena, beautiful setting.

Great venue for a concert. The accoustics here are fantastic. The sun can be a bit harsh during the day in the lawn.

Great place to see a concert! Lots of food and beverage choices, fairly comfortable seats, lots of security. Generally easy to see and hear from most of amphitheatre. Technically there's no smoking but people still smuggle in weed. Haven't done lawn seating in 2 decades, prefer to have an assigned seat. Gets cool to cold at night being near the Bay. Bring a sweatshirt!

Great feel, great concerts, especially when you are out on the lawn. Drinks are a little pricey so maybe if you don't want to pay too much enjoy a few drinks before going into the venue

Great and amazing venue. I'm in here when i was at Google IO event...

Great venue and entertaining atmosphere. During the concert break they "traffic controlled" the ladies bathroom, allowing relief quicker. Expect expensive drinks and cash only vendors. Ride share process needs improvement.

Train and the Goo Goo Dolls where excellent beyond compare

Iconic deadhead venue.may not be the most comfortable and the lawn is steep but for heads it has held a special place in our hearts for 30yrs

It's a really good facility I saw some NF and logic there everybody was very friendly and courteous

Amazing venue! Great for big groups. Bring a blanket to sit on if you have lawn seating, and fun things to trade with those around you.

Top of the middle section smack dab in the middle, way to cool. Came to see Bob Seger!

Large and clean bathrooms!!
And they had a good selection of food at the event we attended (Paramore and Foster the People). The prices for the seats are good and any seat will still get u fairly close to the artist. They also have the lawn option and u can get a pretty nice spot if u get there early at the lawn.

I forgot my iPhone and called theater couple of times,no one is helping me. very rude staff.

The place is great for concerts always have a great time there

Bonebash was great but nickelback was even better. Was able to upgrade our seats for $10 ....
Go shoreline ...

Need a better parking system. Cause it takes 1hr just to get out.

Love it but drinks, food and parking prices are RIDICULOUS. No need for that. Seriously.

Great Venue, well organized and plenty of staff around to provide assistance.

The music venue is awesome but the getting in and out is a joke. They really need some sort of traffic control.

Gotta love this place when there is a concert to see. Fantastic bands and an absolute awesome show!

Cheap concert tickets especially lawn seats. Good for big groups and something fun if just want to hangout but acoustics aren't that great and if you aren't a stoner can be tough to enjoy.

really cool venue. bring chairs if your sitting on the lawn.

Parking spot s absolutely atrocious. It takes over an hour to get out of the lot, because they have no clue how to organize an exit strategy.

Great venue for events, but they rarely accept credit cards.

If you have a dog don't bother because the groundskeepers will chase you away. The kite field is a joke as there is broken glass on the sparse grass. I'll reiterate PETS are NOT allowed so forget about having a nice afternoon outing with them.

the obstructions in the beginning were annoying but then moved, also it is not very accessible to people with limited mobility

This is a great outdoor venue, it always has a big lawn with rental chairs always available, VIP areas, roaming water n food vendors ball park style. It also has the best motorcycle and Vip parking areas, good os over priced and not gourmet buy not total crap either. I liked the cheese steak sandwich. The drinks well vary, hard drinks r not great but there beers are good just waaayyy over priced which means only rich drinkers can get drunk n stupid. They due slack and fall short a bit when it comes their handicap visitors, sure they have spaces for parking unless you get caught in the traffic thats always present at large events and might end up in the back forty dirt lot waiting for what you hope is coming, a shuttle. It rarely does, at least i have never seen it. Then once you get in you have to check in so they can take you to your seat when they promise to return at some point for food drinks or bathroom help, but again they rarely if at all do. So if you not in special need you should be fine!

Really nice venue, a lot of big name bands come through here. However, my biggest problem with this place is the location and parking. Its really difficult to get in and out of there when there is an event. You are really stuck back in there.

Love this place due to the venue being outdoors. The set up is great for everyone to see along with huge screen tv's to see the stage as well. It def can get really crowded depending on who's performing so arrive early. If you sit in the grass area, lawn chairs are always best, if not comfy blankets you don't mind getting dirty n stepped on. Food is allowed which is a plus for me. I've seen great performers here so I'll def be back.

Can hold an awesome concert here.
The infrastructure is quite nice.

The place where there is no sun is cold and the place where the sun is hot is dead.

Center stage is huge but the seats are cramped and chances are you will be blocked by people sitting in the front.. either sit in the front few rows or in the lawn
