With bodacious individuals such as Sara, and that is with no H, and Bekah Berg who kindly gives out gold stars to hard working employees, this is the place to kick it with the fam! Want some candy for a buck and half? Well don't worry about stuffing that purse full of gas station candy, they got your M&M's, they got your milk duds, they got your Mike n Iks, you like Mike n Iks? I sure do. Let's say your getting your concessions and buttering that popcorn with golden delicious sweet sweet butter and wait, they have no pickles left and now you're feeling some special kinda way..fret, not. With employees like Brock, that empty pickle slot just became full of sweet mother loving luscious pickles. Hmmmm, can ya taste em? What more can I say about the family friendly crew at this poppin heavenly theater of quality. Nay, I shall say no more..You just go check it for yourself.

I'm a prone to motion sickness, so I'm on likely to take advantage of the IMAX part of the deal, but it still winds up being cheaper than seeing two movies so many of my friends and I took advantage of it. Especially I made a pandemic where you really don't feel comfortable going out much, sitting in a large theater with a handful of other people fairly safely spaced out and recliners feels like a pretty reasonable risk compared to many other potential social situations. My partner and I always wear a mask when we aren't eating or drinking as an added precaution. I have noticed in the past couple months that the line at the concession stand tends to be fairly long. You can bypass that by going straight to the bar if you want to order drinks (the best bang for your buck bet here is Dragon's Milk for $7 a bottle, which is barely a mark up from store prices). You can also pay $40 and get a refillable popcorn bucket that lasts through April. The parking lot is always nuts here. You're better off parking on either the right or left side of the theater. If you purchase your tickets online you can always strategize which side of the building you park your car on based on the number of the theater you'll be in. The lower numbers are on the side closest to the Mall drive and the higher numbers are on the farther side of the lot. Fair warning, though, it's super easy to fall asleep in these super comfy seats!

I purchased our tickets in person and I was asked if I was part of their rewards program. I said that I thought that I was. I gave my phone number and was told that I wasn't in their system, but yet he didn't ask me if I wanted to sign up. After we got to our seats I went to their website to sign up for their rewards because I always take advantage of loyalty programs, and when I put my information in it said I was already a member. We went to the concession stand where I was informed that they were out of most of the beverages in the beverage station because they had been busy. My nephew then went to look at the candy selection and we struck out again. He wears braces and has a peanut allergy and there were no plain M&Ms or chocolate options without peanut butter, so we couldn't buy candy. When we got to our seats I was so shocked that I started laughing and took a picture before I sat down. The recliners are old and worn and worse than any furniture I have seen in people's homes. Thankfully my nephew enjoyed the movie (Elio).

I am deeply disappointed by my recent experience at the Civic Auditorium. What was once a…read morerespected, community-focused venue has unfortunately declined--largely due to the behavior of its staff and ushers. The staff were rude and unprofessional, and shockingly unaccommodating toward children. This was especially upsetting given that we were attending a production specifically geared toward families and kids, Annie. Instead of being welcoming or patient, the usher we encountered was dismissive and unfriendly, making it very clear that children and teens are not truly welcome here. This venue is no longer family-friendly, despite advertising family-oriented productions. If you're bringing kids or teens, be prepared for an environment that feels rigid, uninviting, and uncomfortable. What makes this even more disappointing is my long history with the Civic. My family has donated large sums of money (we could have bought a couple homes with the amount we've donated) over the past 30 years because we believed in its mission and its role in the community. Sadly, after this experience, we will no longer be supporting it. The Civic is simply not what it once was. If you're looking for a welcoming, inclusive place to enjoy theater with your family, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Do not take your family to the Civic!

They've done some renovations which have made the experience there better. Miller Auditorium could definitely use some polishing! It's a bit drab inside and feels like a high school auditorium to me. We recently attended Cats the musical there and enjoyed the performance, but there's room for improvement at the theatre. The main lobby/concourse area is super crowded and packed. Everything is on top of each other - bathroom lines, concession counter lines, coat check lines, merchandise counter lines, and box office lines - all squished into one narrow space. It has terrible flow and makes for a cramped experience. The women's restroom line was very long even when they announced the other bathroom upstairs. The restroom also has a big carpeted lounge area that seems like wasted space. There were also zero security measures in place - they weren't even checking tickets at the main entrance doors (they did check them right before you entered the actual auditorium). No metal detectors or checking of bags - something I'm just so used to at DeVos. It would be more secure and feel a bit safer to me with those measures in place. Our seats were off to the aisle side of the orchestra level. We had a pretty decent viewpoint, but I was very distracted by the ushers who were playing phone police and intercepting anyone taking photos or videos during the performance. That's totally understandable, but it was annoying when one of them rushed down our row in front of us to the middle of the section right during one of the quiet ballads. I think there should be a clearer announcement at the beginning of the performance, rather than being disruptive to other guests during the show. I would come back in the future if there's a show that I really want to see that's not in GR, but it's not the best theatre experience I've had.

It was the first festival I've attended in a long time and the staff did a fabulous job making sure everyone's comfort level is being catered to regarding masking and social distancing. I would love to see Kalamazoo go back to hosting at least a couple festivals per month throughout the summer. They always do an incredible job with our local Pride Festival, which did not take place this year due to the huge spike in Covid cases in the region in the spring. My favorite festival was always Taste of Kalamazoo, which I desperately hope will come back at some point. Greek fest was another treasure tradition that folded a few years back. It will be interesting to see how the space evolves as the new complex across the street and gets poised to open up.
