    Went here years ago when it first opened. Back years later for my first concert of the year at…read moreShoWare Center. Honestly not the best venue for a concert. Their sound system was awful. Fun concert but could barely hear the artist. Still prefer Seattle's venues. Staff was great. Drinks were overpriced.

    Great hockey & concert venue, with excellent concession and event staff, marred by some truly…read moreatrocious, smug, rude, condescending and callous management. Before delving into all that, though, I will summarize some of its best features: * Free parking (in the east lot only, however) * Wonderful security, concession, and event staff (minus one manager in particular) * Spacious venue, with great sight lines, even from the floor Now, on to the problem: Myself, my wife, and another 20-or-so attendees had VIP Meet & Greet tickets to meet one of the bands in the lineup for our event, to which we were invited into the venue early to hang out with them, take pictures, etc. Although our band was not the headliner, we were told by event staff that, once our session was done, we'd have to head back outside. However, we were explicitly told to line up behind the VIP line for the headliner, and once their session was one, we'd ALL be allowed entry into the venue early, partially to avoid the 90+ degree heat and direct sunlight hitting the glass and reflective mirrors on the sunny-side of the building, where our lines were told to assemble. We confirmed this multiple times with the gentleman, who was friendly, warm, helpful and welcoming. Once we were back outside, things took a turn south, as the Events Manager, the aforementioned smug, rude, condescending and callous mentioned above, decided otherwise, and subjected nearly two dozen people to several hours of sun exposure, simply due to her being on some sort of power trip. Multiple people in our group would end up suffering from heat-related health issues, including two diabetics. Thankfully, some of the caring concession staff inside, noticing our plight, offered some free cold beverages to help alleviate their suffering. Despite being informed of what the previous gentleman had said, as well as the condition of the people suffering in the heat, the Events Manager continued to be smug and dismissive, her response always distilling down to basically "because I said so". Her final excuse was that our tickets simply could not be scanned for entry prior to a certain time, which is true to a point. However, as one of the people in our group worked for Ticketmaster, and informed her, and everyone present, that this is adjustable by the venue AND Ticketmaster, she ran out of excuses. Once we were finally inside, things were great, once people had recovered from the heat. However, this Events Manager put people's live in danger for no reason other than exerting her power, and that is in excusable. A complaint is being filed with the BBB by multiple people in our group, as well as formal complains with the venue's ownership and upper management. At the VERY least, in the future, ShoWare Center needs to inform their management that extended queues for summer events MUST be moved to the shaded side of the building, and when people start to suffer legitimate risks to their health, then it's time to take action...or be the subject of legal action taken against them.

    The Tacoma Dome is a large multipurpose arena in downtown Tacoma that handles events at scale in a…read moreway that larger, more modern venues sometimes fail to do. I walked into a space where the dome format gives the building a distinctive character that sets it apart from the standard rectangular arena. For a concert, the circular layout meant sightlines were generally workable from most positions in the building. I saw TWICE here, and the show was the kind of performance that fills a space like this in the right way. The production was large enough to justify the venue size, and the floor area in particular delivered the energy that a show like this builds toward. The acoustics in the dome held up better than the building's age might suggest, and the sound carried clearly enough that the vocal and instrumental mix came through without the muddiness that dome venues can sometimes produce. Getting into the venue moved at a reasonable pace even with a full house. Security was present and effective without being intrusive, and the entry process at a sold out show was more organized than I expected. The concession variety was solid and the food lines, while long during peak windows like opener breaks, moved steadily enough. Seating on the upper levels had a comfort issue for taller people, with the sightline angles and seat spacing working better for average height than for anyone over six feet. The main screen visibility also dropped off depending on my position relative to center, so seats closer to the floor or directly facing the stage tend to offer a more complete visual experience. Transit access is one of the practical strengths of the venue, with bus and light rail connections close enough that driving and parking is optional rather than necessary. For a large arena show in the Pacific Northwest, the Tacoma Dome remains one of the more reliable options in the region.

    I can't believe I have never been here prior to my recent visit for the Ado Hibana tour…read more I thought the venue was just okay. It obviously is much older than the stadiums / arenas in Seattle. It kinda felt like I was in a big gym. Our seats weren't that great or expensive but we had a great view of the stage and we did not feel like we were that far away. Seats were fairly comfortable too. The parking situation is a bit of a mess and it's a horrible place to drive to and back. There is no easy way to get there. You will be dealing with horrible traffic and there will be lots of constructions going on in the summer time. If my favorite artists decide to perform here in the future, I would not hesitate to come back but Tacoma dome is definitely not my favorite venue for events.
