St Pete Times Forum Reviews

What an awesome place! Great vendors, nice revamp of the previous designs of the arena. Feels organized and cleaner than most other venues. The prices are ridiculous, but lots of different things to participate in. Not a bad seat in the house. The Tesla Coil is one of the coolest things I've seen in any venue thus far.

Home of the Tampa Bay Lightning and a really good arena to visit. There are several food options and dining options and the area overall is growing with Sparkmans Wharf and Furgs. Even if you don't have game tickets the area is fun to visit and enjoy in the environment.

They also do occasional special events which can be great for kids and adults alike. Keep the schedule of events for this place in mind and there is likely to be something that interests you going on here.

Our church group was there to see King and Country they were awesome the stage was awesome the price was awesome

Wonderful facility with excellent view from all angle to stage.

Staff is friendly...a bit over priced but i love going

great stadium
with flip flops and short pants hockey shows

Went for the Stanley Cup watch party, the staff was extremely nice and everything was great. Clean areas and social distancing in effect.We got here super early and chilled while the staff prepared their stalls. One even opened a bit early to give us a drink. All in all, amazing experience.

Awesome people work here and great place for hockey and concerts!!

I love the new parking lots. I love going to events there. I always have a great time.

Great for hockey! But the sound quality isn't where it should be to host concerts.

We went to Bad Bunny s concert, expecting a good concert however everywhere in the arena people were smoking marijuana - it became so bad that we had to leave in the beginning of the concert. We spent a lot of money expecting to have a great time but were sadly disappointed. I was hoping that the security in the arena would have been better to prevent this type of experience.

Saw Paul McCartney the other night. Great show place will be word class as soon as the construction project is complete. Great work.

The concerts are great the staff not so much. I literally had people behind me vaping the whole concert and I asked them to stop and they didn t the staff was literally watching the man do it and did nothing about it. The staff needs to up their service and rules a lot because I was really upset that I had to breathe in cotton candy vape the whole show

Beautiful arena. I have been to quite a few, beer selection is on point, although a little pricey. Saw the Smashing Pumpkins and the NHL All-Star game and it exceeded expectations. Wish I lived in Tampa instead of Orlando...

So Andrea Bocelli improved Acoustics from last time I saw a concert there

Seats suck...D + to the construction engineer designer. Be nice to have a little room to walk the rows ..or not need a safety belt to climb stairs in case of fall.

One of the best arenas around. Service is top notch. Best place to see hockey, arena football and concerts.

Anything that goes on here is generally a great time. Nice place. Go bolts.

VIP Tour for season ticket holders. Nice features!!! Riding the Zamboni...

Wonderful Place to see any event

WWE CHRISTMAS SHOW WAS ON POINT!
HOW THE ENTERTAINERS TREATED THE CHILDREN DOWN FRONT TAKING TIME WITH EACH ONE WAS A BEAUTIFUL THING

Great concert. Was a RIP off for the parking. More than double regular rates.

I love going to Amalie for hockey games and other events. Everyone is helpful, and happy. Wishing you a good time, and making sure you find what you need.

Great place! I felt that the area was safe and clean and well taken care of. Fun place to watch a game.

Greatest Hockey Team only wish I could afford to go to take family more than once a year.

Great event arena. Delicious food. Plenty of restrooms. Friendly staff. Comfortable seats. Plenty of parking nearby. Awesome experience. Best of it all, go Tampa Bay Lightning!

Well staffed , usually there for concerts and shows. Always has been a good venue for them.

Great fan experience - lots of nearby restaurants and pubs, live music on the outside of the stadium.

Beers always crisp, popcorn always good and the experience of leisure and good vibes is always here..

Nice arena. Parking can be a hassle in near by pay lots. The garage is reserved for season ticket holders.

Great venue and the production team for hockey is excellent! Top notch fan engagement and plenty of food and drink choices!

Class act team and the technical level of the music light show is off the charts!! Red, White and Blue glow watches that synched the crowd and music- Awesome!!

Watched a Paul McCartney concert. The venue is not perfect for concerts, but the shoe was very good nonetheless. We got to our seats before the show surprisingly quickly given the number of people. Same when we left. Organization was very good.

Good Hockey Venue
We went to take in a game between the Lightning and the Penguins there was a great atmosphere with good natured support from both sets of fans. Our live view was good and the quality of the screen was exceptional, however, so were the drink prices. Why do these venues think it is acceptable to fleece their customers on food

Horrible traffic area all under construction. The stairs and dangerous. The security employee at our exit, Ricardo is unprofessional, rude, obnoxious and treats people with physical limitations with no respect. You aren't the chief of police you jerk. I will never return.

Clean good value friendly service would definitely recommend

Good food and friendly atmosphere. Handle crowds well. Love this place!

While parking and traffic suck, once in the arena everyone is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend getting Chase Club seats best way to see a game maybe ever.

The games are great but... food is really too high. $4.50 for water. Hmm. The arena has been renovated and is in good condition.

Great, can be extremely, and I mean extremely crowded at times though.

Great venue. There are a lot of dining options and the arena is clean. A lightning game is always a fun event. Be sure to allow plenty of time to find parking and walk if you aren't using the arena parking. Be sure to check out the cigar city bar. One important thing though, do not forget your wallet, this is not a cheap place to visit.

Have this things for any place near the water. Didn't really get the chance to really hang out in Tampa. Spent a little time with my nephew in the St. Petersburg, Clearwater area.

Fantastic arena. Lots of local parking, great foods with lots of options. Reasonable pricing for an arena. The Tampa Bay Lightning is a fantastic organization!

Incredible venue. Very updated and the staff is extremely friendly.

Went there for New Years to watch the Lightning play. It was really fun to watch them play in my favorite arena. The game was a blast and I'm looking forward for the 2017-18 season to start. Thank you and Go Bolts

They host winter jam and it's awesome every year. Great venue

Great arena,very well laid out, lots of good venders,views of the rink we're Awesome,!!!

Good place to watch the game, from inside or outside like me: D

Love Firesticks , inside Amelie Arena. Make sure you get a reservation.

Amalie arena is a wonderful venue. We very much enjoy watching the Lightning.

The entire building is clean and full of helpful people to help find your way.

We have attended multiple events here and will continue to.

What can I say, it was Elton John. 3 hours of him singing and his band playing his best songs, along with 3 outfit changes...all over the top! The staff at the arena were very helpful with us finding our seats.

I love Amalie Arena. Great stadium, lots of food and booze options. He prepared for stadium pricing, though. Actual admittance tickets are usually reasonable, though.

Great place for an event but traffic patterns set up were a little confusing

Great. Would be better if they had actual hockey fans attending the game.

Amalie Arena the old ice palace it's still a multiple use Stadium it fits 21500 people it could be used for ice hockey for arena football and for concerts I was there for the Rodger Waters tour us and them it was a fantastic concert

Went to see JOYCE MEYERS. She was a blessing. As she always is....The arena its self is just gorgeous. High ceiling spacious

Great place to see a concert, easy to get in and out.

Paid $500 to see drake last night and an employee named CARLA screamed and insulted me and had the cops escort me out because I stepped into the aisle. I saw one song performed.

Love coming here! Parking is easy and the arena is nice

The place was great and easy to get to but the seats were tight
