Target Center Arena Reviews

I haven't been to too many shows at the Target Center, but could not have been more disappointed and disgusted by my experience in December. We bought 1st row tickets in September for a concert. When we arrived, right when the concert was starting, we found they had sold a ROW ZERO, which wasn't even a full height row down from the one we were sitting in. The ticketing director, Marcus Kroulik, a complete fraud and shyster, victim blamed us and told us we should have forced the ushers to find us new seats in a sold out arena. The customer service has been abysmal and I'm disgusted Target is even affiliated with this center. Target Corporation would NEVER treat their guests this way and Target Center should be ashamed of the service they've given. I will not stop until this horrendous service is acknowledged and rectified.

It is a fun and lively place during timberwolves and lynx games!

Seen some of my favorite bands here!! Always a super fun time!

I got to see Willie perform and I met Patrick Simmons from the Doobie Brothers.

AMAZING
I was vat the game when the tinverwolfs won their 13 home game in a row

The remodel is great!! However the food was NOT good at all. Everything we had was cold and frankly did not taste very good. The concession stands need better management in this early stage of opening. The total food assortment before the remodel was much better. The arena and seating is fabulous!!

Great plays sound system is great fun place to enjoy entertainment

Awful experience. Got front row seats that were great except the ushers kept moving everyone around and distracting us. It took 30 minutes just to get a beer at the concessions and the restroom line was ridiculous and the bathrooms disgustingly dirty.

Been going to Target Center since they opened and it still is a sub-par venue. Saw Red Hot Chili Peppers there last night and we had several drunk people passed out in our row and security did absolutely nothing about it even after we texted the arena help line. The bathrooms were absolutely trashed and looked as if a giant urine tsunami had come through. There was literally piss everywhere - it was disgusting. $11 for a 16 oz. beer is stupid expensive.

Great Phil Collins show, $10 Bud Lights notwithstanding.

First concert I've been to here, normally all are at the Xcel. They have a lot more options for food and drink and I would choose this location for concerts over Xcel for that alone.

Once the Twolves are back the place will be rocking.

Easy to see everything. Sound quality has improved greatly as well

We saw the College Dunk and 3 Point contest and it was AMAZING

A great mid-size venue with modem amenities. Plenty of parking nearby with skyway access.

The place itself was pretty good, but way overpriced. Easy to find, and easy to navigate. The show was a but disappointing, but that does not reflect in my rating.

The floors was very sticky. The bathrooms was nice. You have to walk through security like TSA. I don't like the fact that people can smoke marijuana and security doesn't do nothing!!

I like the Target Center. It's a good place for concerts. The sound was good considering it's such a large venue. I liked that it was also easy to get in and out without the crowds being that bad.

New remodeling job done very well. Seats were comfortable and concession lines were decent. Best of all the Wolves won!

Love the updated the prices are high. $6 for a 20oz soda...kind of ridiculous.

Great show! Some of the best skating and acrobatics ever!

Bought best available seats on the first day seats went on sale, a year before the event, and ended up in the next to last row of the upper deck. The only way to see anything was to watch on the video screen, which was about 40 feet below where I was sitting. I'll never go back to Target Center again!

I bought tickets on craigslist for Lana del Rey and when I showed up at the concert they ask me for the name on the tickets and I did not know, so they told that the tickets were fraudulent and I need it to buy new ones. I did buy then again but my sense tells me that they may just wanted to sale more tickets.

Had a ball at The Legends of Hip Hop Tour. Gas everywhere!!!!!

Overpriced , seats are bad, floors are disgusting , hopefully the renovation fixes all of that

If you haven't been to the Target Center since the renovations, you really should. They did an outstanding job of taking what was a fairly average venue and making it world-class. Especially as it applies to basketball, they upped the ante significantly. Go check it out.

I don't go there much because its too crowded.;there's no place to park. The best way to arrive at an event is to take the Metro Transit services, i.e., light rail train, buses, etc. Plan to do a lot of walking.

The seat are really steep, and there is not a lot of room if you want to get up. But it is really easy to see, even if you're on the very top row.

For basketball games, this is a very fan friendly arena. There are no unexpected bad seats like some arenas. Upper level behind backboard can be annoying. Bring your college ID and Wednesday games are $10. Some years they add Mondays too.

I love the remodel and upgrades they've made to the Target Center. Very aesthetically pleasing. They additional options they've added for the selection of local beers is great. However, I did not give them 5 stars for one reason amd it's because of the Jimmy drama. While Target Center has clearly made a concerted effort to add culinary diversity to their food options; sushi, italian bistros and even a french influenced offering, they have still not figured out how to get the basics right. I I paid $24 for 3 "soft" pretzels that were dry husks of salted cardboard and couldn't find any cheese curds to save my life. So 4 stars, great fun, reasonably priced tickets, great atmosphere! Be selective with your food choices and Go Wolves!!!

Nice, clean venue. Our seats were good and we were able to see the whole event.

Loved it, my daughter and I went to see Elton John on Friday February 22 we had a great time!! Nice stadium!! Thank you!!

Had great seats to watch the Raptors play the Wolves. Beer is as expensive as you think it would be at an arena. Nice facility.

Being a professional stagehand I have had many opportunities to see all different kinds of concerts and basketball games since the remodel it is really cool it is opened up some of the areas that were inaccessible before so the average Patron can enjoy all the amenities Target Center has to offer. I think the Acoustics are great in that building the look is really cool and easy to get to. Anyone who wants to see a concert there should not hesitate you will enjoy yourself.

It feels a lot more modern after the renovation a few years back. The concessions are much better. I had a burger that I would go back for without even seeing a game. There are more spaces for groups to gather in while eating our just talking before an event. I love the update.

Amazing experience from the NBA match Minnesota Timberwolves vs Indiana Pacers. Despite the hosts losing, they looked fantastic. Modern stadium, excellent visibility from anywhere to see what is happening on the pitch. Being in the US going to an NBA game will not be a waste of time!

Great time! Great venue! Can t wait to go to another event!

Can be a real Hassel getting your seats moved and missing the whole show almost because of it waste of money at least we made it in time to see Kevin Hart

Really good venue. I went to Disney on ice and the staff and security were very friendly.

Fyi this is a gun free zone, so be aware.

It's our sports center that a multipurpose arena. Now if only the Timberwolves can do like the links and win championships it'll be a great Arena

Great atmosphere. Had a private room for Willy Nelson. Excellent service

It took 1/2 hour just to get through security to see Louis CK. People were lined up and looped through the sky way. It doesn't cut it anymore. Can't wait for the upgrade.

Wonderful show tarnished by a dirty, smelly, sticky environment.

Absolutely needed the remodel it received, but overall the venue still feels "old" compared to newer, modern stadiums and arenas. I had the pulled chicken fries and it was very bland, and not to mention cold, which is a terrible combo for nacho cheese. Staff was very helpful and polite, and the new scoreboard is very large.

I haven't been to the Target Center, and the remodel looks great.

Fantastic newly done stadium. You enjoy the match even when you are seated far. And there is leg room for tall people.

Easy access within walking distance of public transportation friendly helpful staff

Saw the Keith Urban show last Saturday, oct 15th. Awesome concert but what made it even better was the staff at the venue. We ealked in, got through security very quickly, and with guidance, found our seats within five minutes of entering the venue. Nice remodel and beautiful space. We will be attending more events here asap.

Place was nice , but the food court sucks , bad attitude

Target Center has been remodeled. It is so much brighter and has a more opening feeling. It looks much more modern and clean. The food choices are great.

I have recently been going here to watch a lot of Timberwolves game. Even though I may be in the nosebleed section I can still see the main floor pretty well. Plus it's very nice to have that big giant TV in the middle. The place is very easy to maneuver around. However I wish they have for escalators. The drinks and food are really expensive.

This lifetime fitness is awesome. It's "that's what she said," huge. I love having a track instead of a treadmill.

Wonderful space. Love the sound effects. Great time with lovely Minnesota people.

New and big only saw one nodded out junckie on sidewalk 1 block away. Thought there would be more.

The venue took care of Deplorable needs as well as quell the protesters. Minneapolis Police Department operated professionally and promptly.

Lexus court side seats are narrow and do not have cup holders. I only weight 165 pounds and it was tight with some obstructed views being in third row behind basket. I would not pay several hundred dollars for this seat, free food and drink, luckily they were free.
