Attended Agganis Arena for Ringling Brothers Circus. This was the first time I've been to a circus in 30 years. It was a quasi circus Soleil. Definitely a lot of fun especially for the kids. Everybody was engaged. The seats were tremendous with a view to everything. Nothing obstructed. I guess circuses don't have animals any longer so don't expect any animal training shows. read more

This arena first class and well designed. A very smooth and comfortable venue from the moment you enter the door. The concourses have a soft and smooth feel. It's very clean and up to date. read more

At 7,200 capacity this is an intimate arena and really there are no bad seats. We sat in 103 seats b11 and B12 and it was perfect for AR Rahman this week. It was easy access and exit read more

Had a very fun time watching Disney on ice here today day after Christmas! Lots of happy excited little faces and lots of royalty here among the crowds with shiny sparkly glittery princess outfits. This arena is not too big and not too small - just right! So you can have a pretty good view of the show from almost anywhere! And Disney did not disappoint! Getting in and past the ticket checkers and security was fairly quick and easy. Great show - saw Beauty and the Beast, Tangled Rapunzel, Cinderella, Frozen of course, Coco and Moana. A great time was had by all. Lots of shiny lit wands all over too. There is street parking - metered if you're lucky but it's also right next to the T green line. Overall good experience at Agganis! read more

Love going to hockey games here! The food and drinks are fairly priced for an arena and the facilities are clean. There are many bathrooms and accessible facilities. I have a season pass and I plan on renewing every year! read more

Came here to see The 1975. No complaints, really. Photos are from sec 103. row Q. seat 14. If you're wondering, Q is the last row so nobody will be behind you to get annoyed with your jumping around. You're at a bit of an angle but it's not an issue...a little further to the right and it may have been troublesome. Seats are pretty close together but luckily the 2 seats to my left were open so I had room to dance-you can't sit down at a 1975 show. In between rows is a bit snug but I did alright for having long legs. The sections weren't labeled very well, I had to ask for help and still had difficulty even after that. Sound and staff were fine. I was looking forward to getting frisked but sadly it didn't happen. I never carry much to concerts-just my wallet, phone and keys in my jacket pocket. They asked people to take hold metal objects over their head and walk through the detector. Also - I could hear the music loud and clear so no problem there. I didn't get any food but I saw the pizza-it looked like shit but I'm from NY so I'm a bit snobby about my slices. People also had small buckets of popcorn. It's too far for me to go unless it's a -MUST SEE BAND OR I WILL DIE!- kinda thing but it was a very pleasant experience. read more

Came here for an Arctic Monkeys concert! Tickets were reasonably located and the entire venue was pretty well staffed - they have two entrances in addition to the ticket entrance and they were pretty efficient about making sure people were filing in based on their seating. When I went, they separated the floor into two sections, one closer to the stage and one right up against the stage (you can definitely tell that it's a hockey stadium). It seemed like a good way to ekk out more money in ticket sales, but the floor areas were less than half full, making for some awkward wide open space. There are quite a few food places where you can get the usual crappy stadium food (think pretzels and icees and four dollar sodas) but they were abundant enough that you never really felt like you had to wait in line forever. Bathrooms are plentiful and overall it seems well managed and efficient. Overall, not a horrible venue. The stadium is pretty echoy-y, though, so the music quality isn't great. NOTE: The security at the venue is fairly strict. No large backpacks are allowed in, and everyone gets a pat down when you enter. Also, it opens into Commonwealth, so traffic is an absolute nightmare when you exit and everyone just spills into the street. read more

Came for the BU/BC game on Friday the thirteenth and really enjoyed the event! I was here for the hockey but the facilities were clean and nice, and I liked that when you walked around there were bits of BU hockey history on the walls to browse. Some of them clearly hadn't been updated in a while, especially the placards of alum who were still playing in the NHL and had been traded, but it was still nice to see! They had a nice selection of merchandise and I had friends at the game who also appreciated the selection of alcoholic beverages ;) I myself got some mini fried donuts which were delicious and a chicken finger boat that was also solid -- there were so many fries packed beneath the chicken fingers that we couldn't finish them all! Prices were very reasonable for arena food. read more

I might be a little bias because I am a BU alum and Agganis was my home on weekends for 4 years as I watched BU hockey whenever I could, but I think that Agganis is one of the finest arenas in the area. It is a lovely facility that still looks new. My understanding was that BU was originally planning on building a much larger facility on the spot, but plans were changed and they decided to build an arena for ~6,000+ fans rather than 15,000 fans. As a result, the experience is intimate and the arena is loud for all home games. The seats are comfortable and every seat has a great view of the rink. I have also seen Cirque du Soleil in the arena, and the view is equally fantastic because of the small size. There is direct access to the heated parking garage from the arena and the BU police generally to a fantastic job of getting cars out of the arena post-games. It has never taken me more than 10 minutes to get to Comm Ave from the garage. read more

Concert with no Cameras or Cellphone usage allowed. Event staff was highly disruptive. Terrible experience. Skip it. This should be an awesome venue for music - it's way more intimate than a place like the TD Garden, and it was really easy to grab beer and move around. The bathrooms were clean. And the sound was pretty good. The day before the the show we got an email saying no photos would be allowed - no cellphones, no tablets, no cameras. Or you'd be ejected. Which, fine. (Though I wish I knew that before I bought the tickets, because we were seeing Bob Dylan). They took this very seriously at the show. Signs were posted everywhere and the event staff walked around constantly for the duration of the show, periodically blinking their flashlights at anyone they thought was trying to snap a picture. Or we saw a group of event staff huddling together to escort a person out of the arena which made quite a commotion during a quieter song. It was all incredibly distracting and disruptive to the show. And it went on the entire show. The event staff and this no photo policy really killed the vibe and made it a real challenge to get into the music and enjoy the concert. With this guys constantly lurking around it also felt like we where back in high school. I really wish I knew all this before we bought tickets. I will never see a show here again. read more

Been going here for years! As a BU Alum I have season hockey tickets and have for over 50 years! Been worth it until recently... a strange man has been taking selfies with me and my little grandkids in the background! It made me insanely uncomfortable as he always took them when I was in the middle of eating my gamely hot dog! I was able to catch his name and see that he posted them onto his facebook for all to see!!!! So unfair!!!! I brought this up to event staff and they said that they, "couldn't get in the way of his journey for social media clout" and that "maybe i should stop putting so much relish and mustard so my hotdog is less messy". Very disappointed!!!!!! Seriously considering not renewing my tickets for next year. A lady should be able to enjoy her hot dog in peace. read more

I attended the Portugal. The Man / alt-J concert and it sounded so bad my group decided to leave half way through. I stuck around, hoping it would improve, because surely someone would notice and fix it. Any minute, the audio engineers would adjust this knob or that, and make everything all right. Alas, my optimism was misplaced. Honestly, my cellphone's speakers produce a more pleasing sonic experience. We've been to about a dozen concerts in a variety of venues and never heard anything like this. This arena might be good for hockey games, but DO NOT SEE A CONCERT HERE. read more

BU hockey is legendary as is Agganis. Unfortunately some overzealous hot dog managers feel the need to control your experience. "Kevin" stormed our group of four at our seats to demand IDs. It was the most bizarre moment. I suspect the hot dog harassment stemmed from UConn taking an early lead, so the 6-1 beating UConn put on BU was especially gratifying. read more

Agganis Arena - Hot Dog Harassment Incident. - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

In response to the prior reviews, people forget that arenas were built for sporting events, not for acoustics. No concert ever sounds good or feels comfortable in an arena- this is just a fact. Furthermore, please don't blame the sound quality of the show on the venue. Each concert brings in their own sound system and sound crew. It is up to them to try to make it sound good, not the venue. That said, out of all the venues I occasionally work in, this is one of the best, maybe even the best. Everything is brand new & clean; there is a nice easy loading dock; and the people are friendly & easy to deal with. I have only seen a show from the spotlight position, but I think it's a great place to see a concert. I don't think there's a bad seat in the house! Also, it's right on the Green Line, so you don't have to worry about parking, but if you do drive you can park in the back lot or find a meter on the street. There are also a few decent places to eat/drink before and after the show. read more

I am very torn about this venue. It serves two purposes for me: concerts and Terrier hockey. Between the two, it's a-ok! For concerts, it has a weird feel...like there's a lot of space with not a lot of people. it doesn't suit well for getting up and dancing, either. The seats don't give much leg room. For hockey, well, there's nothing like a terrier hockey game full of students and alumni in their jerseys, cheering their hearts out or chanting "asshole!" repeatedly at the refs. I did it as a student and I still do it. Maybe I'm biased, and there are definitely some schools that can rival us, but I am always in awe every time I go to a game here; it is unlike anywhere else. There's something in the air that makes it epic and brings the energy up. Even when the basketball team plays here, the energy shifts. It's a great place to watch sports and a great time. So! To sum it up: concerts=eh sports=great read more

In general this is a nice arena to see a sporting event, but parking is beyond abysmal! Came to see the US Women's Olympic team play Canada. It was a rainy night, but combine that with a sell-out crowd, and lots of road construction and you have a traffic disaster. I define disaster ast being in the car for an hour to drive about a mile and a half and see the full signs on all three lots. This is a urban venue with no where near enough parking to host a large event. Talking with some other folks I hear that the more popular BU hockey games are a similar mess. My suggestion is to park very far away and take the Green Line. If you happen to live in walking distance or an take the T, it is very nice when you get in the arena. Wide staircases and hallways make moving around easy. The inside is not luxurious, but it is nice. Sight lines are good, and there is not a problem seeing over the people in front of you. read more

Went here to see a Few comedians. We picked up our tickets at one of the windows with no problem. Everyone there was pretty helpful in getting us to our seats. The food and drinks there was pretty pricey. You can end up dropping $7 Plus just grabbing one or two items. Three beers ran us about $20 and we paid that much also for t-shirts too. I grabbed a water and nachos which came with salsa and cheese. It was not bad with a few beers in my system. Parking ran us about $20 something for a few hours. Overall, it was a good time, but you can easily drop $80 like nothing because of the high prices. read more

Pretty cool arena. Came here for my Brother's Graduation about a month ago. The presentation was very nice. The seats were kinda small... but besides that it was very nice. Would have been cool to see a hockey game there tho(even tho i have no clue a bout the sport haha) read more

Where good acoustics go to die. I don't know what the CURE is here for the DISINTEGRATING sound. I WISH I knew the answer. Do we have to stake someone's HEAD ON THE DOOR to get something done? I wish I had could have some FAITH that something would get done to rectify the situation, even for just SEVENTEEN SECONDS. But alas, I fear it never will. Would have been better off sitting at home and watching some PORNOGRAPHY. [The sound] comes back round to breaking apart again /Breaking apart like it's made up of glass again read more

I was extremely disappointed in the way that the arena was set up for the concert. I went to see Bastille on Columbus Day this year and the only reason I had fun was because they are amazing performers. That being said when I went to buy my ticket it was sold out of floor 1 tickets, so I went for floor two. Upon showing up I was right at the front of floor 2 where I could see that floor one less then half way full even at its full capacity. For that to be sold out is ridiculous! There was literally over 10 yards of empty space between me and the closest person. If they just had one general admission i would have been in the front row, which makes me extremely upset. Rethink your general admission and maybe I'll come back. read more

So BU went and built Andre Aggasi's concert venue. Or is it for Agassiz - the famous geologist? What? Who? Harry Agganis? Who he? Oh... I guess it's a Boston and BU thing. Someone school me please. EDIT - I got schooled. Turns out he was a local legend that died young. Seems weird that even though I work at BU this is the first time I ever heard of his life. END EDIT Anyway, whilst I'm dishing out all the questions - how about this one: what is good about this place? I'd say not much. ..security getting in is a pain ..tickets are expensive ..it takes forever to get out ..the B line can't cope ..the acoustics are hollow ..they stop serving beer sooooo early One thing that is reasonably good is that as BU staff / faculty I get pre-sale tickets on all events. So, my pretty Yelp friends -in a bid to be a useful tyke, I'm happy to buy pre-sale for you whenever you see something you like. Just be warned that Andre Agassi's Arena is almost as whiny annoying as he is. read more

This is the worst concert venue in Boston, which is sad because they sometimes book good artists. Please, please make it less horrible. Treat your concert attendees with respect, like they are your customers, which they are, having shelled out good amounts of money for tickets, and not with contempt. No one is making you host concerts if you don't want to do so. The Garden, Bank of America Pavilion, Comcast Center, Tsongas Arena in Lowell, and the Worcester Centrum are all big venues that manage to do it with a smile. Opening all of the food/beer stations for concerts, rather jamming 2/3 of them with never-ending lines, would be a big help, as would changing the 1 beer per person rule, which guarantees that concert attendees spend well over an hour standing in line, and miss part of the concert, just to get 2 beers. I understand that the venue is owned by B.U. and B.U. wants to treat even the most responsible adults exactly the same as the most irresponsible B.U. students, but if you are going to sell alcohol, you've already made the only decision that matters and should at least do so efficiently. Maybe you could turn the profits into lower ticket prices for future events. (Ha!) read more

It took me eight years to finally make it to Agganis Arena and boy am I glad that I didn't rush there. I was there with one of my best friends for some BU Terriers hockey action as they hosted the Harvard Crimson and were very much looking forward to the game. We arrived to a very nice, modern and clean arena that sits about 6,300 fans during games. It only has one tier and is very well designed with plenty of entry and exit points. No one is too far from the action and frankly there's few bad seats in the place. And despite the layout and atmosphere, we were quickly frustrated as the game started. First off the acoustics. I know that a lot of bands perform there and I'm not sure how that's possible. There's absolutely no dampening of the sound waves in there and it just bounces all over the place - this ends up causing distortion which makes things way more difficult to hear. We could barely make out a lot of the things being said by the PA announcer during the game. Another negative thing, which in many ways ruined the night for us was that they only are willing to replay the goals from the home team and not the away team. I understand that this is the Terriers's home arena by Harvard had some of the most amazing goals last night (including one that made ESPN's top 10 today!) and not being able to see the goals again, in slow mo, on the big screen flat out sucked. I don't find it fair to the fans - we are here for the action and the goals - whether they are BUs or not is to be decided but I felt cheated by this. Do they expect that maybe the away team goals will go unnoticed? Karma had it's way as Harvard won in OT on a score of 6-5. All in all, the place has a lot of positive and a lot of negatives. I wanted to like the place, I really did. But then I walked around and despite it being clean and intimate, I just couldn't find myself loving the place. The fan experience is pretty bad although they seem to have made efforts on the concessions, which even serve specials (something that isn't the case at the TD Garden). However they also charge $90 for a low quality hockey jersey at the BU fan concession stand which is outrageous. And worst of all, the tickets frankly aren't affordable. I paid the exact same amount for it on Ticketmaster as I would for a Bruins home game via my season tickets. So... thanks but no thanks. At least not for $35 a pop. read more

I totally want to rip off Jake M's review and fill this with gut wrenching Cure lyrics about how this stadium and it's shitty sound system ruined what should have been a great concert. I saw the Cure here and while the setlist was good, the lighting was outstanding, the sound quality sucked and I was maybe 40 rows back from the stage on the floor, so I can't even imagine how much worse things must've sounded for people with seats further back. Muddy acoustics, all the instrument and vocal levels seemed to have been set by someone who was deaf. By far the worst arena I've ever seen a show in. The only reasons I'm giving them two stars instead of one is because I thought they did a good job with parking and when I flashed my medical alert id, they let me bring in my unopened water bottle. read more

Hands down the worst concert venue in Boston. The sounds quality is horrendous unless you are on the floor. Also, you can't see the band because you are so far back. I had front row seats dead center (section 8) for Lady Antebellum and I could barely hear and see the show. I wrote this review becuase I want to see Haim and they are playing with Vampire Weekend, as soon as I saw the floor space is sold out, I decided not to buy them becuase of how horrible this venue is. Save your money and don't ruin good shows/memories with this venue. read more

What an amazing and reasonably priced venue!! I always enjoy attending events at the Agganis Arena because any seat in the house is a good seat. The arena is great for games, shows, and concerts. I attend Disney on ice here every year and it is always a magical experience. read more

While new and shiny, Agganis falls short in so many facets. It has the basics. Seats are comfortable. Bathrooms are clean and never have too long of lines. There is pretty big diversity in food spread around the concourse. That's about it. BU is not known for many sports outside of hockey. Due to the recent free fall of the team, attendance has been fairly low. You know they are trying to spark interest when they start giving graduate students free admission every couple of weeks. A 6,000 seat arena should not have a problem being filled at a university that has over 30,000 students. The ticket office is part of the building, but they force everyone to walk outside again into the cold to enter the arena while only player's friends and families are allowed to use the door that is inside. I also find it strange that ushers don't let you go to your seats unless there is a stoppage in play. Most stoppages are only for a few seconds and it takes much longer for a crowd to make its way down to their seats anyways. One thing this arena features that most other college stadiums have is alcohol. They have a good selection of the usual commercial brands and local crafts. Unfortunately, they have awful employees that fill a third of your glass with foam and limit you to a single beer. You're not even allowed to get a drink for a friend or a date. Ridiculous. Even Boston professional sports teams allow two. Lastly, the acoustics in this place suck. I agree with everyone else on here that you can't hear anything. Everything echoes and you get an extremely jumbled sound wherever you sit. If you come for a concert, the only hope is that the visiting band brings enough speakers and can point them full blast in your direction or you have front row tickets. Oh, I forgot to mention how absurdly expensive this place is. From hockey to music, they charge prices similar to the TD Garden. read more

As a proud BC grad, i'm hesitant to say anything nice about something at BU. That said, Agganis delivers a fairly solid experience. I attended the BC/BU hockey game and watched the Eagles salvage the weekend series with a 6-1 win. I was in school while Agganis was being constructed, but had never ventured in before this. I was surprised by how much of a 'pro' feel it had to it. I knew it would be nothing like WBA, but didn't imagine the concourse would feel that much like the Garden. All of the little things (face tattoos, etc) that were offered just didn't seem to fit with college hockey (then again, i've been out of college for a few years). Good sight lines, comfortable seats overall, it was a nice place to watch a game, and i imagine it would be the same for some type of concert/event. read more

This place is huge! A very clean and respectable establishment. The staff are very helpful without that snooty "can't you read" attitude. I also would like to point out that not only do they gave small vendors to sell food and drinks, they also have quite a few lavatories. Really blew my mind how many and how clean they were maintained. The actual arena was huge and I was in the pit and I felt like a small person when all the cell phones started to light up during a song praising God. Pretty cool. Hoping to come to come to more concerts in this establishment. read more

I went to the concert with my family and the staff was very rude and we had to witnessed how the security assaulted several people. Also, the people who were supposed to guide you to your seat were very unprofessional and had no manners. Very disappointed and I knew the concert was going to be this way, I never would have come or brought my family amd exposed them to such rude treatment. I don't recommend this place and would avoid seen anyone here. read more

Harry Agganis was known as the "Golden Greek" when he played football for BU. If you go to the stadium named after him, you'll get pretty golden seats. Unlike the cavernous Fleet Center...er...TD BankNorth Garden, Agganis Arena can seat only about 8,000 spectators. This means that you're never that far from the action on stage. As I found out at this weekend's "So You Think You Can Dance" tour show, the sightlines are great. And not just because I was sitting in back of a helpfully slumped-over fellow. Of course, we had floor seats (row G), so perhaps my review is skewed. But I'm willing to return to see what the nosebleed seats are like. The next time the Shins come to town, I hope they head here. read more

Being a BU student right now has its perks. Getting options for "advance" tickets to almost every show there is great. Such a wide variety of shows and games come through that it feels like Agganis has established itself as a permanent and popular Boston venue for generations to come. I've seen ice skating, freshman orientations, Terrier hockey games, and DeathCab/FranzFerdinand among other things here. The design is deceptively spacious- the place is absolutely HUUUUGE. It's a little sad that they can't make the tickets a little cheaper because it is so big. And the acoustics are not good at all. Very hard to hear anything unless its booming like thunder on the speakers. Seats are on a very steep incline. State of the art design means very economical comfort. And never, ever volunteer to clean this place up after a hockey game. There's a reason why they get BU clubs to fund raise through cleaning- you need a minimum fifty people to get it done under four hours. Lastly, parking options other than the underground lot are rarely available for events (but if you keep looking, you might find one in Brookline). Prepare to drive in early if you're commuting since Comm Ave and Storrow Drive have terrible traffic. read more

This place sucks, blows, stinks, smells, poops, spits, throws up, craps, and everything else bad. As a music venue, at least. Can't say I've seen a sports game here. The sound is a collection of echoes, and the whole place is just what it appears to be: soulless steel. Even the drink selection is putrid. PLEASE MUSIC GOD. NO MORE GOOD BANDS ARE ALLOWED TO PLAY THERE. read more

The Good: The sound, when it's not TOO LOUD! Decent capacity Food Vendors The Bad: All seats are very cramped. It's awful how little space you're given. Someone in between exit rows (about 9 people deep on either end) will have to press bodies CLOSELY with others as they pass to get snacks, use the bathroom, etc. I practically got molested by some grand dad at my roommate's graduation ceremony last night! read more

Just got done watching a hockey game here! BU Vs VT.... I am from VT but the girlfriend is a student of BU. So we where really cheering on both teams! I liked BU because if they win you get free food from local restaurants! The rink is very clean and easy to find. Its a good size rink too. Finding seats was a cake walk. Ushers were very friendly and helpful when needed. The food at the rink was good too. We got some nachos and a drink to split and it was reasonable priced as one would think. It ran us about $7.00. Still cheaper than the movie theaters...So this is a plus for me. Over all the rink was good. The tickets had been free through the girlfriends school. So it was a great night of fun for a whole $7.00! By the way BU won.....4 to 3. It was a close game though. Great 4/5! i would go again. I am willing to bet tickets are cheap if you buy them far enough in advance! read more

I went here for both Twenty One Pilots shows on 6/14/16 and 6/15/16. For the first day, I had Floor 2 tickets, but I decided to wait outside from 9am-6pm(when doors opened). The staff was friendly in making sure everyone was alright waiting in the heat. They would even let you in to use the restroom if you showed your ticket for that day! It might not have been the venue's decision, but the first 100 Floor 2 people to the wristband line once doors opened got upgraded to Floor 1 -- so I got to be Floor 1 both nights! The security at the barricade were all very friendly, passed out waters, and helped those who needed to leave the GA pit. Only negative is the sound, but then again, it's really a hockey rink! Also, the huge gap you may see in Floor 1 v Floor 2 photos is because of fire codes - just like any building, there can only be X amount of people in the given space. But Floor 1 and Floor 2 were the same price for these shows, so just get on presale if you know you'll want Floor 1! Oh, and of course overpriced food/water -- $5 for a bottle of water! And when a kid in front of me asked just for a paper cup (as everyone was being kicked out at the end of the night) they were told they would still have to charge $5 for the cup that the kid just wanted to fill with water from the bathroom sink! read more

Music venues rarely make the concert experience better but they can often make the concert experience worse. The major things that you need out of a venue is 1. easy accessibility to bathrooms 2. cheap/readily available beer 3. easy exit. I've been to three concerts at Agganis and admittedly have never been to a sports game but I would say this place is one of the better places to catch a show in Boston. Acoustics are good, bathrooms are easy to get to and clean and the beer lines move quickly. It is very important to note that you cannot purchase a beer unless you have an in-state ID or are over 25 years old. This was annoying because of the 4 people I was with only 2 of us had Mass IDs making us have to go in shifts. While I'm sure it was not typical, I also need to admit that the first beer I purchased was one of the most disgusting Bud Lights I've ever had. Conservative estimate I've had about 1,500 bud lights in my life, this was the worst one I've ever had. Must have just been a bad keg. Exit was easy and the T/bus is right outside so it made for an easy transition to the rest of our night. That being said floor seats here are MUCH better than regular seats due to the nature of concerts so try to pick those up. Overall I'd say its better than the Garden for a concert so check out your favorite band next time they stop at BU. read more

I've seen 2 very different shows here (cirque du solelil and the killers) and they made the space work well for both. Sound is good and most seats in the place are good as it's not too large like The Garden. Major pyrotechnics went off without a hitch and were dazzling. This venue would not deter me from an act I would want to see, and I might go as far to say as it may encourage me to see one. read more

BU Terriers v UMass Minutemen. We kicked their asses. There was beer. Sweet potato fries. Cotton candy. Full-grown men ramming each other against plexiglass. Hockey sticks flying. Beer. Guys swarming goalies. The sound of UMass crying in a corner after we kicked their asses. My first hockey game and already I'm foul-mouthed bully. I guess that's what hockey does to ya. read more
