Fantastic venue for shows and I ve seen the Grand Rapids symphony here a few times and it was amazing. Parking is right across the street and costs $9-10. Strict security with metal detectors which I like. Concessions available and they serve alcohol.

This place was perfect for a convention everything was well writhing walking distance, the set up for the vendors, arcade, and tabletop games were amazing. The prices for food and drink were very manageable though the flavors at time were lacking at times, specifically the chicken fries. The restrooms were great. The atmosphere was very pleasant. Parking was free of any stress or complications. Looming forward to going again soon.
The Devos place is an amazing place to host large events. There are good places to eat nearby and cool ballrooms that are massive. It is great for large crowds and multi day conventions. Heck, I'd say it's better than combo hall in Detroit!
We just went to the RV show. The food was grossly overpriced ($12 for a smashed chicken sandwich, cold fries, & a tiny pop), the Exhibitor's lounge had a sad selection of water, tea bags, coffee, and a small box of cookies, the free parking & shuttle bus service to/from Seward Lot 9 was NOT well explained nor advertised - because it's far more lucrative for people to pay $10-15 to park in the ramp, and of all things - after working all day & night and dealing with thousands of people and their ill behaved children, the staff needs to BUY TICKETS to get into the event. The show itself was well put on, but poorly done by its host as far as employee treatment and customer service.
Stunning facility that hosts a variety of events throughout the year. It's a blessing that Grand Rapids has such a wonderful place to gather large groups and having traveled the country for events, I can honestly say this is one of the best!
Only thing to be aware of is the somewhat maze you have to take going to/from the underground parking lot. I always park across the street, or even better, at the JW Marriott and just walk through the Skywalk. Makes for a great night cap opportunity!
Beautiful convention center that was simply immaculate when I visited. Clean facilities, lots of natural light in the foyer, and friendly staff. Parking right nearby. Would look forward to coming here for any event.
I've been here for many performances. The symphony, musicals, plays, and concerts. No matter where I sit here I always had a good view. Maybe I'm just lucky when I buy my tickets!
Great time at 2 different concerts. Only complaint is that they keep you in a holding area outside the theater until 10 minutes before the show. Thought there was a problem.
I always enjoy going to a " show" at Devos place. This weekendy daughter and I went to the Home and Garden show. It is always clean the staff is friendly and there is always security regardless of the event adding that extra little feel of safety. We always have a wonderful time at Devos Place.
