Editorial Review for Nokia Theatre – by Jeff Speicher
In Short
The mid-sized Nokia Theatre opened in February 2002 to host a wide range of stage productions including pop, rock, country, comedy, magic, Broadway and family shows. Despite the limited space, this state-of the-art venue offers many of the same amenities as its larger metroplex brethren. With a maximum occupancy of 6,300, the amphitheater design is equipped with extra-wide, comfortable seats. The Nokia can also scale down to 2,000 seats for a more personal environment.

Saw the Stone Temple Pilots here on 29th June 08. Great show, however, the venue was not really appropriate for such an act (well, certainly not from where I was sitting in the upper level..... just too detached from what was going on)! The venue itself is a bit of a rip-off..... $15 to park the car, $8 for a crappy draught Budd, $10 for a Heineken, $15 for a margarita..... and NO credit cards accepted at the bar - cash only!!!
Pros: Not a bad venue if you have the right seat
Cons: Expensive parking / drinks

Recently I had the pleasure of going to a rock concert at this theatre. The parking was the normal 10 to 12 but amazingly close even for general parking. The line inside moved fairly quick although the lady screaming at the top of her lungs " Come on people we don't have all day make sure to have your tickets out!" was alittle annoying. We had what I would consider NOSEBLEED seats but I was shocked when I got into find that I could still pretty much see the band. The sound was great. The screens were pretty good and the rules were suprisingly not all that uptight. They roped off a HUGE smoking section so everyone wasn't crammed together and the bathrooms were actually big enough that ( as a girl) I only had to wait in line once. Trust me that's a big deal. The drinks were pretty expensive and it was kind of annoying how the people with the blinking hats kept walking around the whole time but other than that. I would say I had a great time and woud definatly go back.
Pros: Pakring, Great Seats, Big bathrooms, Nice place
Cons: Expensive drinks, lots of advertising, seats kinda unconfortable
