Even though they have great cultural events, I won't go here again. I have paid good money for shows and then got seats with blocked views. I will go to City Stage or the Bushnel instead.
Went to "bowfire" show last night,the presentation was electric . The violinists and stepdancers had the crowd clapping for more. We enjoyed the show very much. Parking was easy, close and only four dollars. We will go to other shows based on our experience last night.
What a beautiful piece of architecture!!!! The inside is full of history and untold stories. A great place to see a concert or show.
Went there for Joe Bonamassa concert. Sound was great. Very nice looking concert hall. Will definitely go again.
We have season's tickets to the Springfield Symphony, so we are there often. The accoustics are wonderful. We should know - we sit in the "nosebleed" section! The sound is marvelous, as is the Springfield Symphony under the direction of Maestro Kevin Rhodes.
The seats are incorrectly placed providing no leg room and making listening to even the best music an bad experience.
Have been there several times for the Basketball Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. It is a beautiful building, particularly when it is decked out with red carpet and lights. The inside facility is comfortable though the bathrooms are limited and downstairs making it inconvenient.
The hall is beautiful -- the seats are large, comfortable, and far apart. We got a chance to stand on the stage and look out to the seats after Ron's great show -- and it really is a gorgeous place. Springfield is "lucky" to have such a fantastic place, which I think seats 2700 or so people, to see a comedian, much less a full orchestra. We traveled 3+ hours by car for the show and it was sorth it.
We were given tickets to the Symphony as a birthday gift, it was a great gift, we had wonderful seats, the acoustics are great and the theatre is beautifully preserved. There was a reception in the Nutmeg Room after and the spread was beautifully prepared and delicious.
Good Venue, very accessible, the only bad thing was the restrooms in basement and to many stairs to climb up and down
