Tempe Center for the Arts Reviews

Very friendly staff and it was a great venue for the guest speaker for the ASU series.

Great place for pictures but be warned their will most likely be other people their to. It has a great view of the Tempe Town Lake and it also has mini water falls. All in all it is great place to vistit and take pictures.

Went there for stray cat theater. The production of American Idiot was outstanding. The venue is amazing...right on the water...nice place to hang for an evening...

My two boys and I had a really fun time playing golf and air hockey. The lady working there was very friendly and helpful. The price was reasonable.

This is a great place to attend a show, gala, or event that makes ya feel fancy. I've participated in several shows in the Lakeside room which has stunning views of Tempe Town Lake. I've also seen all sorts of cool events as I go to my class on Tuesdays.
The only reason I'm knocking 1 star is due to the parking. It's awful. You have to park 5-10 min walk away - fortunately most of the time they have folks in golf carts that come pick you up. Most of the time.

A nice chill place to watch a show, have a wedding, host an event, walk your dog, and to people watch.

Seasonal shows, events, and more. Beautiful, large facility. Walk-in Wednesdays are a great event that runs. Huge concert hall has preformances frequently.

Great location for any event, very photographer friendly, professional & courteous staff, and just beautiful location.

Went there for a photo shoot on the pier definitely a must see spot if you are in Phoenix, parking is a problem as they are renovating the place but worth the trouble specially at night its awesome

It's a strange structure and the layout is unique. There are tons of Pokemon surrounding it.

I ve only been in one space but it s such a neat venue!

Concert was amazing.
Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra!!

Good place for different entertainment. Live music, and other good events.

The teacher Tony is great he explains everything in detail. I learn so much from him.

I finally got to go here for a show after it having been opened for 10 years. The show was 42nd Street. The performance space is wonderful...very well laid out and easy to get in and out of your seats. From the outside, you can not imagine how beautiful it is inside. Just beware that currently in 2018 there is a lot of construction going on next door and parking is farther away than normal, so plan to arrive early.

This place was awesome to hear jazz artist Jackeim Joyner and Nick Collione! A acoustics were great!

Always a fun environment, and the entertainment that is presented there is alway top notch

This rating is only for their "happy hour" in the lounge. Plastic glasses. All cold food. Not as advertised in the promotional news article I read.

Jerry Donato & Nicole Pesce are amazing! Great concert!

Stunning building with breathtaking views of Tempe and the lake. Take the elevator to the third floor and walk out on the view platform (enclosed on sides for faint of heart).

Really cool architecture! Obvious great view of Town Lake.

If you love art and scenic views in the middle of a huge metro area this is a great place to go!

Great venue and atmosphere. Clean restrooms are a plus.

Architecturally fascinating and a great area too take friends and family for mostly free event or just to hang.

Wow, talk about a surprise. Never knew about this place in Tempe and the concert was way better than I thought it would be.

Awesome place for any type of event, friendly staff and great place to take pictures

The place is in an excellent location
..I go for the good live music open mic session there

Awesome place in Tempe Arizona. The architecture is really amazing, and the waterfront with the Bridge is beautiful at night when lit up! Check out their calendar for events & theatrical plays or musicals!

Beautiful! There are 2 small theaters and a small art gallery. This is worth a stop.

Great place to watch the Sunset, have a week ending drink on a Friday evening and listen to some excellent music. Happy hour at the Edge.

#REALLYFUN Great Christmas musical performance of A Christmas Carol !! It was our first time to the Tempe Center for the Arts and it felt like a scene from the Rooring 20s. Loved it!! At the time we went the parking garage was being built and we had to walk kind of far but the scenery and views was actually really nice!

3 star goes for not much space for group performer backstage

The Center for the Arts is a jewel in Tempe's beautiful lake district (if thats what its called now) not only does it sit at the pinnacle of the lake and the dam. Its architecture and interior are aesthetically appealing. The mission and community outreach are possibly the best parts of the TCA. Run by a tremendously talented team and there are a number of dynamic programs housed here that offer something for everyone. Funded by the City and the residents of Tempe programming is focused on the mission and intentional offerings. We love the TCA

Interesting park. Nice long loop for walks. I bet it gets very busy peak times. Just a nice atmosphere. Loud due to airport.

Beautiful building and location, talented artists and musicians.

I love the Open Mic on Wednesdays from 6 to 10pm. Spirits & coffee are sold and some snack dishes. With that, just pull up a chair & enjoy the talent. And on Fridays & Saturday the Edge has specials to get to socialize, live music & dancing.

Very nice there is also a gallery inside and they have interesting pieces

It was the best time there. Music was very nice, as this was my first exposure to watch someone in front of me and performing music. Music is bound to no boundaries I am from Pakistan and I love the way people present their art and I loved their art. And I understand that these artists are distributing love peaece and harmony and I guess artists should be used for interfaith peace and harmony so that to bring people closer to discard hatred and violence. We should take steps to promote artists and art, because they are great. And and #Tempe Center for the Art is playing a positive role in this regard.

Nice venue. Parking, which has been good, is restricted due to construction. Remains to be seen if the experience will be as satisfying afterward.

Love this place. Productions are always interesting.

Out by the water and inside have a theater and other events just about every day.

One of the nicest Center For the Arts of all the suburbs of Phoenix. Staff is good. seats are very comfortable. Bar with snacks available for the earlier parts of most shows. parking is normally not a problem

Beautiful setting. The building is prefect for a variety of users.

Its really nice, it is a good place for exercise and for walking and really nice for the fam.

Great venue. The views are awesome. And the gallery is great.

This is a beautiful building and great people and events!

Very nice place to watch or preform. I've done both here and have been very happy every time.

Watched a show in the theater. Really great facility, good views, lots to see and do.

Beautiful structure and lovely nature/Park area. The balcony at the top was great too, lots of seats and an amazing view!

Beautiful building and view of Tempe Town Lake. Parking isn't great.

They have artwork everywhere even the carpet is artwork
