SMG - Van Andel Arena & DeVos Place Reviews

Every event I have attended here has been extremely pleasant. The staff is always friendly, the facilities always very clean, and I've always easily been able to find my way.

Parking attendant made me never want to return to a convention at DeVos Place ever again!
Home show was a little boring this year.

Huge place. Handicap friendly. Parking issues stink.

I have been to various places under the name of DeVos, but this one is definitely the most DeVos of a Place. What I mean to say is, this place is very grand. A lovely place. The trick is finding the password to the wifi...

Very modern looking event hall. Life in Color here is always awesome!!

The ballroom dining is fantastic. Although the events that are catered are generally limited access if there is a chance to go, the opportunity should be taken. There are so many other events hosted it is impossible to review everything that can be done.

Went for a career for with students. A great time was had by all. Getting in and out was well organized and things went very smoothly.

It's a convention center. The windows let in light & it seems airy.

I've been to so many wonderful shows here - always love the Broadway GR productions, especially loved Phantom!

Nice convention center. Smaller by convention center standards but, that adds to it's charm.

We went to see Newsies on Broadway and it was an incredible experience!! The staff was friendly. The amenities were beautiful. The bathrooms were big! I have been to many playhouses and shows and this was one of the best. There was parking very close by and plenty of restaraunts from Ruth's Chris to hotdogs and everything in between. We really enjoyed Grand Rapids and we wish we would have planned more time to mosey around. All in all in was a great experience that we look forward to repeating.

The convenience is well worth paying $10.00 for parking in the heated garage to enter their event center.

Clean, open facility with ample parking options in a lovely neighborhood

Excellent performance hall, great acoustics, fine sight lines; Grand Rapids Symphony

Great Public assembly venue. Lots of natural light throughout the building and friendly, helpful staff.

Have been to many events here and always have a great experience.

West Michigan home and garden show. I have been going with my wife every year for a long time. This is the best year so far.

The parking was horrible. We waited over an hour to pull out of the parking garage. I will never go back to Devos place again.

Poor signage. Rooms had different names than what appears over the doors.

We went to the Remodeling Show. Parked below the venue; wasn't cheap, but given the cold, we weren't going to argue. The ticket seller must have been having a bad day...she was cranky, to be charitable. The mens' room was in need of cleaning, while the womens' room was just filthy and disgusting. My feeling was the city workers did not want to be working on this particular Sunday.

Loved the performance hall, beautiful space and good acoustics. I will certainly be back to see a concert here. Would like to try seating in the loge.

Premier convention space and ballrooms in Grand Rapids. Skywalk access connection to many prominent areas of downtown.

Been here many times for a number of different events over the last two decades. It s alway crowded but usually alway a fun place to be.

Average large convention hall. All parking is off site and expensive.

Great venue for everything from conferences to beer and wine tasting.

Great place. Large areas, and have a lot of events through out the year.

The play was amazing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory animation mark

Clean, friendly staff, professional, Great sound system.

Beautiful facility. They really need to work on cleanliness in the restrooms and it would be nice to have clocks on the walls.

One of the few places to see a opera in g.r. One of the the best.

Thank you for helping us with our wedding at the GRCC #tmntwedding2016 #tmntwedding #ninjaturtlewedding

Attended three of the spring shows. Home, Ultimate sports & Cottage & Lakefront living. Easy parking underground. Show floor has nice wide aisles. Food available.

Nice convention space. The rooms are a bit spread out and somewhat tricky to get to. Great for this part of the state.

Beautiful facility I'm glad to see Grand Rapids has this facility at our dispose

Here for a fundraiser for the West Michigan Humane Society.

Very nice people and they keep the building running nicely

Excellent convention center with nice amenities. Was there for the quilt convention. Well organized with beautiful quilts and great vendors.

Went to derick Hough was awesome. Devos is a great venue. First time there and was very pleased. Service was great as well.
