The game presentation also adds to the fun, with fun intermission activities, promotions, and fan experiences,great yet nearly impossibleto comllete or win,, the arena is easy to get to, get in with more than just one entrance, parking is now horrendous and expensive nearby off N Street, my opinion arrive super early and get street parking, walk to get dinner and then to the stadium.. The venue is generally practical and well organized Ushers do their job well, The main lowlights are that concession foornis mediocre, lines can get long and service can be slow, and the entry process doing a Condors game is restricted to Two Doors into metal detectors, absolutely more time-consuming than necessary because of bag checks, metal detectors, and other rules. These are understood but open more than two doors before game time that would help with the process. Our experience was a great experience up until the Guest services supervisor,showed his butt( not physically but literally), I knew he was a guest services supervisor because he was announced on the ice and was appreciated for doing his job apparently.( this was some sort of staff appreciation night) anyhow he was seated in front of us about four rows ahead with a gardeners hat and a 10" brim, that forced the people who were supposed to sit behind him to move, also he did not sit down during the whole game and was just obnoxious. Not sports arena obnoxious, just obnoxious. The GSS when leaving to walk up the stairs he had to wait, as game was in play, while waiting he was more than obnoxious to the man standing next to him and his lady (while he waited ) he started screaming very cllose to his ear "let's go Condors" less than 3 ft away from the man, I literally butted in and told him to chill and he went further up the stairs to continue yelling let's go condors which is fine but just not in someone's ear anyway, hope I never have to deal with this dude personally because it shows you what kind of person he I believe he felt emboldened because he worked there and he had approximately 20 family members there that day but I can tell just in that moment as a Condors employee he's a problem. If not to anyone else to people he doesn't believe deserves respect because he seems to think he's above them as an employee. Anyway we had a good time the food for me was way too expensive but a friend of mine bought me a $2 hot dog this hot dog wasn't worth 15 cents it seem to be overcooked the bun was soft but too moist for a hot dog to be enjoyed so I decided to leave at the beginning of the third quarter when the Condors were down 3-1 and knew it probably wasn't going to get better as we walked out. I think im psychic .... as we walked up the stairs San Diego Gulls scored another goal which put it at four to one and therefore solidified my exit to go pick up a cheap meal at Taco Bell anyway great experience great energy keep me away from obnoxious people which is kind of hard to do at sports events but I digress Dignity Health Arena seems to be well run and sort of reminded me why I had season tickets in the 2000s. Just hoping I don't have to talk to the guest services supervisor before I'm allowed to buy those tickets that might change my mind..

The BEST SEATS at an AHL (American Hockey League) venue! I'm touring the pacific division and…read morehitting up all 10 teams, this time I came to see the Bakersfield Condors. I had a blast at the Country Night game with my Mom. The outside of Dignity Health is stunning, I love the fountain, spacious plaza, and shiny windows. The entire property is super clean and inviting. I walked in and the Dignity Health event staff were friendly. Everyone had a lovely attitude (minus a gift shop dude) and was very helpful. Our usher/attendant downstairs ( a younger, heavy-set gentleman) was absolutely amazing! He had excellent customer service and was dressed professionally. All ushers had a neat uniform and were instantly recognizable. Our only issue with the venue, is that some of the concourse level is a little bland. It's almost too industrial and needs slightly more color. Thankfully, the arena has plenty of food, concessions stands and pop-ups at almost every corner! We tried the popcorn and it was decent (maybe needs a little more butter). The lady at the popcorn stand was kind. As for main event, we were impressed with the ice, seats, and Jumbotron. I had ample space for my legs and a cushion for my backside. Additionally, I didn't have to squint to see the stats, everything was easy to see from our vantage point. The arena has good lighting and has a family-friendly feel. Shoutout to the family restrooms, those are a lifesaver. Note: Parking on Level 1 of the adjacent parking structure is $20. Parking on every other level (2 and up) is $15. We opted to parking on the second floor as we don't mind walking down the stairs to get to the arena.

Went to see an 80s tribute band. There are two parts to The Dome. The larger venue for bigger…read morecrowds, and the bar in the back which also has a small stage and full bar. I was told that both are all ages. It was a hot night and better air conditioning would've been nice. There is a patio out front for socialising and smoking( no chairs outside, though) It was a dead night and I felt sorry for the band (who attract great crowds in SoCal), because there was hardly anyone other than myself and one other person who actually paid the $12 cover to see them play. Okay, that was the venue....That's all I can say about that. Cheers!

Originally named Brighthouse Amphitheater, but recently changed names to Spectrum since the…read moreBrighthouse name change. This Amphitheater boasts beauty and function. As the focal point of the Park at Riverwalk, this Amphitheater is surrounded on the sides by a man-made lake and river, which is especially refreshing to be nearby in the Bakersfield heat. The entire theater is really lovely with a moat-like feature separating the seating from the stage. There's plenty of stadium seating where you could either bring a blanket or low back chair. There's also a large grassy hill behind the stadium seats for blanket seating. Needless to say, there is no shortage of space to sit. What's especially great is the fun acts that come to this amphitheater. Plenty of cover bands, local favorites, and a few older celebrity acts. It's definitely a nice feature for Bakersfield that's being taken care of.

To be 100% honest this is the best stadium in Kern County. What I love about Delano High School is,…read morethey're one of the only high schools that have their football field and running track separate. Normally all the schools have them combined. They use this field for high school and junior high school football games. In the summer they use it for the high school's graduation. Be sure to sit on the home side because when the sun is still up, they have shade. The lights are nice and bright and the intercom is nice and clear. I love the "Welcome to the jungle" & "One a Tiger, always a tiger" signs. Shout out to DHS Class of 2001!

From the first step coming into the park, the ticket taker bringing us up the outside steps because we couldn't open up the site to upload our tickets, to Taylor giving a game ball to one of our friends who will have a hip surgery in 2 weeks. Every soul that dealt with us was top shelf! Because of our friends very bad hip, the powers at be gave us the option of sitting just behind staging /entry area near the home team dugout . There was a folding table and 5 chairs. They were very good seats! Now, because of their kindness, Eddie didn't have to deal with climbing a bunch of stairs. We will be back!

We go as often as we can -- and every time, it feels like you're right in the middle of the action. The intimate atmosphere of the arena makes a huge difference. You're not just watching the game -- you're in it. One of our favorite memories? Last season, we were lucky enough to be there when Jemel Jones dropped 45 points against CSUN -- breaking the school's single-game scoring record in the process. The energy in the building was unreal. Huge comeback, electric crowd, and a win we'll be talking about for years. Nights like that remind you why live sports are so magical. The fan experience here is top-tier -- no bad seats, great energy, and a program that clearly takes pride in putting on a great show for the community. If you're in Bakersfield and haven't been to a game yet, you're missing out. This is hometown basketball at its best. I would Love to work here
