    Been coming here for years Nice place to see a band. Right on the beach so you get a breeze once the sun goes down. But it is hot so bring some water. Show is free and you can bring your own chair or you can rent a chair. Show is at 7:15. And runs till about 9:30 and then they have fireworks. Or you can buy the VIP for $20 and be up front Some food truck vendors but not many, but they do have other restaurants in that little plaza that you can choose from. A couple of drink vendors. Full bar with whiskey and vodka and all kinds of beers and soda. Beers are $7 for big can. Most everybody sits these shows so if you want to dance you need to get in the back. Security here is pushy. You go up front to try to take a quick video and they are constantly telling you to go sit down. I miss the old days when you can just go there and watch a band and go right up front. But now they made the VIP section so huge they won't let you up there not even to take a picture. Parking used to be $10 now it's $15. Ugg. . Go online to find all the listings of the tribute bands I think it runs May to September.

    Prepare for the HEAT!!! This performance arena feels like the equator. Although i know there are indoor performance facilities.... college cheerleading nationals endure the outdoor competitions. The facility itself is accommodating for athletes and the staffing is abundant enough to always have someone accessible if you are to need assistance in any way. Really neat location overlooking the water but prepare WELL for the full wrath of the sun.

    While at Daytona Beach, Tony and I walked up the boardwalk to the Daytona Beach Bandshell. Great music venue located just off the Oceanwalk Shoppes. Great place!!! Free to enjoy and check out

    Located right on the beach next to the Ocean Walk Shoppes. We were there during the day. But I understand they have great bands and concerts.

    First visit so not sure what to expect during this time. Parking was bit great but did find a spot for $5.00 with a bit of a walk. There was a temperature check and masks were required. I felt they did a great job with the social distancing - show was fantastic and sound was great. Of course the ocean and full moon were a bonus

    Erected in 1939 as one of the WPA projects of the New Deal and constructed of a visually unique shell fragmented sedimentary rock known as coquina, the Bandshell stands out as Dayton Beach's most outstanding and enduring structure. As an amphitheater located right on the beach and having superb acoustical qualities, attending a concert, musical or entertainment event here is not only pleasurable but inspiring as well. I've had the opportunity to attend various performances at the Bandshell and can assure you that should you have the opportunity, doing so is a must. Even if you happen to be in the area when there aren't any performances scheduled, the Bandshell is worth seeing. As amphitheaters go, it's one of the best, hence for me, deserving all of Five Stars.

    We come here every time we are in Daytona Beach in the summer since we stay at the Wyndham Oceanwalk right next door. The seating has become much more organized over the years, from haphazard placing chairs wherever you wanted, to rows of chairs now. Many people carry in their own chairs, but they are only $3, or 2 for $5, and the concert is free. There are also beer and beverage vendors. We have seen mostly tribute bands, and they are quite enjoyable, at least songs you may know the words to. This night was a band doing 2 tributes, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, and Simon and Garfunkle, and they did a marvelous job. There are great fireworks afterwards at 9:45 every Saturday, and it is a pretty decent show. Lots of people seated on the beach and people on the boardwalk. It's a great night out if there's good weather, with that cool ocean breeze making it that much more enjoyable.

    Turnstiles.... Billy Joel tribute band.

    The structure itself is awesomely beautiful architecture, and forms a perfect backdrop for performers. There are very few bad seats for the audience. My only complaunt was that organizers formed a walkway straight through the crowd for people walking through to the beach and the boardwalk. There has to be another way. My view was blocked often by people who werent even interested in the concert. That was the organizer's fault, however, so 5 stars anyway.

    A beautiful amphitheater, the Daytona Beach Bandshell is a gorgeous piece of architecture. It contains a rich history since 1939. A place where The Beatles and Elvis Presley once performed. Feet away from the sand and the ocean. If you ever get the chance to listen to a live band whether it's a tribute band or a mainstream band you won't be disappointed. So if you want to listen to good music, have a few drinks, and have some tasty food come right here.

    See all

    Such a classic iconic place to see performances. I recommend it. We could see it from our Juliet balcony at the Hilton north tower.
