I thought this was a great venue for a large conference. We attended the canva create conference here. They held the keynote presentation inside the theater as well as the speaker series. It was AWESOME in my opinion. even from our nose bleeds we had a great time. The bathrooms were hard to find and we got turned around on the exits. Alls that to say, it had a charm that takes you out of the stadium vibes and really makes you feel like you're in an upscale venue. read more

Came to see Rodrigo and Gabriela here and was mind blown with how cool and classy this place is. Very intimate, I love the older crowd and wasn't too crazy at all. They had a cool set up for margaritas and I was impressed with the fresh Aguas they had to mix the margaritas. I got the Tamarindo and Mango one added a shot of tequila and mezcal, the price wasn't that bad and they were good and refreshing. They also had beer selection and mixed drinks at the other bar. Their service was great and all the staff were friendly, if you needed help with anything or finding your seat there was someone always there. They had a food truck vendor outside that has Oaxacan food and also had food inside and it looked really good and fresh. The venue inside was very classy and loved the section we sat we could see well and enjoyed the music and show. Can't wait to be back to catch other concerts I def prefer this location than bigger venues. The parking was easy, wasn't that far of a walk and for our easily and they have people guiding which is a plus for me. Such a neat venue for sure! read more

This was our first time at the YouTube Theatre and I was really impressed with how organized everything was - from the parking lot, to the seating. We arrived just in time to see my favorite band Zoé! We breezed passed security and ticket scanning, not a very long line for drinks and when we accidentally made our way to the wrong seats/section, the ushers were polite and quick to get us to our seats (which were the section over). It was an amazing show! I wish it would have gone on all night! read more

Came to see Mexican Rock royalty Zoé and I really enjoyed this venue. It's literally connected to SoFi stadium and tucked in the corner. I really loved the American Airlines plaza where they had the merch and food trucks set up before the show, also lots of drink stands. The venue itself is layer out really nicely and while I was down in the front, I feel like the view was good from anywhere. The staff working the bar was super nice and so were the staff showing people to their seats. The show itself was amazing but that's what I've come to expect from Zoé! read more

I have been here twice for Canva Create. I have never actually attended a show here. Canva Create is more like a day long advertisement for Canva. The "Keynote" happens in the theater. This event does not have assigned seating. We sat up in the top in the last row. We chose this on purpose so we could get out quickly when it was over. Even from up there, it was easy to see and hear. read more

First time at YouTube Theater and it did not disappoint! I went to see Ari Lennox on her "Vacancy Tour" and had such a great experience from start to finish. I had floor seats and arrived around 6:30pm, the line moved smoothly, doors opened right at 7:00, and the show kicked off at 8:00 as expected. Getting in and out of the venue was super easy and well-organized, which made the whole night stress-free. Food and drinks were reasonably priced and actually good (which isn't always the case at venues!). The sound quality was excellent, and what really stood out was how intimate the space felt. I was able to stand right near the barricade and felt so close to the artist, it made the performance even more special. Overall, an amazing first visit. I'd definitely come back for another show! read more

Visited Youtube Theatre for the recent KASTEYE concert and had a blast! I really enjoy whenever I come to SoFi Stadium because it is such a nice, clean area. Youtube Theatre is no exception. The venue is a small part of SoFi stadium and seats only 6000, so it is on the smaller side! But it does feel very intimate. Navigating there was easy, and we had bought parking ahead of time on Park Whiz, $38.50 for the Hyundai Orange Zone (turn into Stadium Dr from Picador), which seemed to be pretty close to the entrance of Youtube Theatre, about a 5 minute walk from Lot H. Thankfully the area wasn't too busy on that Friday night because there weren't any other events happening at the time. Once parked, there was enough signage around for us to navigate where to go, the entrance is on the left side of the bottom point of SoFi Stadium. Once inside, there was a large space before entering the building of the venue. Out there were 2 merch booths and many food trucks! There was also a few places to get drinks as well for the 21+s. The lines for merch and food were LONG, and I didn't have time before the show to wait. The seats in the venue were had very comfortable cushions, and it actually didn't feel crammed at all! Not every seat is great though, I snagged tickets in section 307, so it's a bit in the nosebleeds off to the right. Due to the angle, the main screen was only 20% viewable from that angle unfortunately! But we could see most of the main stage, and it didn't feel too far. I only wish that the doors opened earlier, because there wasn't much time beforehand to get merch or food. Thankfully, I picked up food elsewhere beforehand so I ate in the parking lot before entering. And was able to get merch during a slow part of the concert. Overall, I always enjoy visiting SoFi Stadium, it is always nice and clean! Youtube Theatre is a nice venue that feels a bit more intimate :) read more

Located at SoFi Stadium, it's like the little sibling attached for the smaller venue events. Please try to secure your parking ahead of time just to insure that that isn't an issue once you arrive at the venue. And there's no getting around it, parking is costly. Once you get there, you have to follow the signs to park at the right spot--and possibly you'll have to ask because we found it confusing. I found the entrance process pretty smooth, following the workers instructions and finding ourselves right in front of the venue where there were several food trucks and merch set up. Another tip, if you're on some kind of budget, just eat before because deng, the food prices (with the portion size) is (for us) expectedly high. Our seats were high up and far but I found it to be just fine--easy to find and comfortable. On the way to our seats, there are places to enjoy views of the venue including the beautiful grounds with a lake and a view of the massive-ness of SoFi. Restrooms are clean. We had an overall, positive experience here. read more

YouTube Theater - We were happy to be here, clearly. LOL! - Performing Arts Near Me - Inglewood, California

I went to YouTube Theater next to SoFi Stadium to see the Mexican singer Alicia Villarreal, and I was genuinely surprised by how nice the whole experience was. Parking was a bit confusing, but I honestly blame StubHub for that. They offered a parking garage a mile and a half away for thirty-two dollars, which was ridiculous compared to parking literally in the second row for fifty. Normally I'm told to buy parking in advance, but in this case it was better not to because those thirty-two dollars were a waste. We arrived early since my grandparents came with me, and the show started at eight. That ended up being such a good decision because the staff was very kind and accommodating. Security check-in was smooth, and they even gave my grandma a ride in a wheelchair to the top of our section, which was thoughtful. The only downside is that once you get to your section, there are still steps to walk down, so it's not the easiest setup for people with mobility issues, but they tried their best to help. Our seats were in section G, and they were really good. If anyone goes, I'd say seat numbers ten and higher have a slightly better centered view. What I liked most is that even from farther seats, the view still felt close and personal because the venue is smaller, clean, and modern. I've been to the Kia Forum, and honestly, I preferred this place. It felt more intimate and well taken care of, and everything from the lighting to the seating made the concert feel special. The ambience was lively and fun. The air conditioning was a little strong at first, but with everyone dancing and singing along, it balanced out. The crowd was full of energy and mostly women, which made it feel like a big empowering girls' night out. The bar and concessions sold a good mix of snacks and drinks, including some that clearly catered to Latinos, which made the experience feel even more welcoming and connected to the music. Of course, expect ridiculous concert prices, but what they offer was good if you're willing to spend the money. The ushers were friendly, the restrooms were clean, and although the women's line was long as always, the men's line moved quickly. The sound system was amazing, and the whole place looked spotless and modern. I didn't take too many photos because I was too caught up in the performance, but even outside before going in, the lagoon area looked beautiful and made for a really nice entrance. Overall, I would absolutely go again. Now that I know how the parking works and where the best seats are, I'd plan even better next time. It was a wonderful experience, and YouTube Theater definitely impressed me. read more

This was my first time at this theatre. It was very nice. It was easy to access, and the seats were comfortable. There was a great view from any seat. The restrooms were clean because the hospitality staff constantly cleaned them. The food and drinks were good. Note: the place is not too big so it's not overwhelming. Parking in the pink lot is the closest parking lot to the theatre. read more

I've been to the YouTube Theater several times now, and so far it's been a great experience each time. If you're not familiar with it, the venue is located right next to SoFi Stadium. There are plenty of parking options, but if you want to be closest to the theater, park in the Hyundai Orange zone. I highly recommend purchasing parking in advance--it's cheaper than paying on-site and saves you time. Inside, every seat is truly a good seat. The YouTube Theater is a relatively small and newer venue, which makes for great visibility and an overall comfortable concert experience. read more

I like this venue! Here's why - YouTube Theater is located in Inglewood and is nestled on the back side of SoFi Stadium. I have been here to see Ledisi and Michelle Obama. I also attended a Canva event here which accessed the theater and the outdoor area. Corky Fact - YouTube Theater is a 6,000-seat performance venue. I consider YouTube Theater a small, intimate in-door venue. Given the size, you can sit anywhere and it not be a bad seat. Pros 1. Beautiful Theater. It's only a few years old so the venue is in great shape. 2. Seats are comfortable. 3. Acoustics is great! 4. Food offered is actually pretty good. Expensive but it isn't your normal concert/entertainment venue food. During both my events the selection of food sold was different. 5. Plenty of restrooms on respective floors. ** They allow food inside the venue. Due to smells, spills, and the trash left under seats - This is a hard no for me. Folks just nasty. ** Cons 1. Venue exit is a challenge -corridors/hallways are small and narrow and easily get crowded. Elevators are small, get full fast, and are limited. 2. Parking is expensive, but, everything is expensive nowadays. Things to know - The BLUE/HYUNDAI (Lot N) parking lot I find to be the closes to one of the entrance into YouTube, next to SoFi entry 9B & 9C. Pay for parking in advance. Arrive early. Expect long lines to get in. Download tickets on to your or add them into an app wallet for fast accessibility. Wi-Fi is spotty in the area when multiple venues are having concerts/events - good luck. If you haven't been, pull up. You are missing out on seeing an event in a great venue. read more

Best venue I've been to in a while. On the more intimate side, it's the smallest sibling of SoFi and the Forum. I typically watch my concerts at the Forum. Finally made it to SoFii for Kendrick a while back. This venue is going to be my new go to. Made it in for the first time for Jessie Reyez. While there are plenty of parking spots available, I recommend pre paying for parking to ensure you have a spot. There was a good amount of food choices inside. Same for drinks. There were also plenty of food vendors outside right at the entrance. I have to give a special shoutout to their staff. From the people in the parking area to the people inside - everyone was so nice and had a great attitude. Someone was always available if you had a question. The setup is the type that gives you a great view no matter where you're seated. We were right behind the standing room only area which was super nice. The seats were comfortable and you can tell they're new. read more

Really enjoy this theater. Great intimate venue with great sounds and great layout. Seats are very comfortable and new. The concession stands are throughout the building and also on the courtyard they do have food trucks. Services are here wonderful from parking attendee, to entrance security and others. Overall it's still new and a great place for a close up concert or others. The only thing that not great is the parking fee, $50-$80 (depending on the artist). It costs more than the ticket itself. read more

This theater is located right next to SOFI stadium and they both share a parking lot. Parking is at least $60 during the day of the event inside of the lot. Use park whiz. We saw simple plan. Sound was amazing and seats were comfortable. We sat all the way on the left side and view was okay. I like that there were restrooms everywhere. Alcoholic drinks were $17+. Wish they would post somewhere where they sold the merch. Merch is located on the patio floor and there were multiple entrances. Employees were nice. read more

Small, intimate theater. Perfect for evening concerts and shows. With the same entrance as the SoFi stadium (though I never noticed it before). - Parking: ~$40 on a weeknight - Food: All food trucks & I didn't notice any food inside for purchase. You cannot bring outside food. - Drinks: You can bring outside water bottle (20oz, sealed). Beer / cocktails were similarly priced as SoFi ($20+). - Bag policy: More relaxed than the stadium. 11 x 14 permitted and you don't have to have clear bags. It's new and shiny so you pay new and shiny prices (as expected). And because it's a small venue, it's not as hectic as bigger concerts venues, or even mid-size ones like the Hollywood bowl. Audio inside is good but the screens kind of suck. read more

This is the best place to see a live performance on the planet. Tons of easily accessible parking. There's enough parking for Sofi stadium so lots of extra when you're just going to the YouTube theater. Great food trucks in the interior, the area between the stadium and theater. The actual theater itself is 1000% state of the art, from all of the separate entrances into the tunnels for the different sections to the acoustics to the video walls behind the performers, truly amazing! I just saw Metallica here for their charity concert and it was absolutely spectacular!! read more

First time at the YouTube Theater. Medium sized venue-around 6000 seats. Plenty of parking, food trucks, cocktails, beer and wine. The process for entry-easy, peasy. Lots of Security I would take off 1star for parking attendants and the parking exits not really necessarily being marked. The attendant questioned when trying to exit had know desire to look away from his phone. I left a bit before the end of the concert because a patron mentioned they couldn't be counted on for help. Sound could have been better, but I'm thinking that's up to the producer, mixer and rest of the sound crew. It's tough driving those LA freeways. Maybe, they will build further out and we will come read more

Great small venue to see a concert at. Getting in and out of the parking lot was a breeze despite it being sold out. The parking attendants did a great job of directing cars. This despite the $45 parking fee which is exorbitant! The theater itself is very clean and easy to navigate. There really aren't any bad seats given its small size. The seats are comfy but the leg room would probably be a little tight if you're tall. The beverages on offer were good quality, but again very expensive. We paid more in total for parking and beverages than we did for the concert tickets. The acoustics are 4 out of 5 stars. read more

YouTube Theater - Mavis Staples concert - Performing Arts Near Me - Inglewood, California

The You Tube Theater clearly hates the handicapped. My husband went there once and then I went. Both times we were with our grandson. This place is not Buddy approved. The first time my husband who is also handicapped, but walks better than me, was placed in the parking lot for the So Fi Stadium, despite him saying again and again he had handicapped plates. They did not care. He paid 80$ for the privilege to walk a quarter of a mile just to get to the dump. He was exhausted when he got there, had to sit outside to catch his breath. He is not in a wheel chair nor am I. Not all disabled people are wheel chair bound. The You Tube Theater does not care at all. So, when it was my turn to take my grandson to a show, my husband said he would drive me, they must have handicapped drop off, right. No, they do not. Drop off is more than a quarter of a mile away. There was no parking for those of us that have handicapped plates, they only have a few (illegal). We drove in circles trying to find a place to drop me. We finally found the near front of the theater and parked, a security guard was screaming at us to move. I said I am handicapped, I am just getting dropped off. He said, no way, keep moving. We moved up a little further and stopped again (we were blocking no one--it was a loading zone that was empty. The same horrible man starting yelling. I was done, my grandson who has autism was upset and got out of the car and opened my door and grabbed my hand. We were out. The guard tried to tell us to get back in the car. We ignored him. After this misery, we had to walk and walk and walk, no place to sit, until we were at the theater. I had to sit, I thought I was going to fall. It was awful. My grandson wanted food and all they had were taco type trucks. We made it inside and we were able to get sodas and sit in the lobby. So, eat before you get there, and if you are disabled just don't go. Inside is new, so it is nice. The seats are not comfortable and again, it is new so they could have put in nice seats, but they want to smash in as many people as they can. If you sit at the sides you can not see at all. The first row balcony has no leg room at all. A man came to us and asked if he could sit next to us because he could not fit in his assigned sit. I said sure, but I don't know if someone is coming. No one did. The sound system is fine, but for a new theater they could have spent another penny or two. The stage is nice. Overall, it is pretty inside. Now, we are done and we have to go. My husband could not get to me at all. They wanted me to walk the quarter mile. I spoke with security and asked for help. They had carts, but no. I said please help me. I will fall. Her response, "than you will fall." At which point she started yelling at us to move. We were on the sidewalk and I was holding onto a make shift railings. I started walking and made it a block and down I went. My husband, this whole time was trying to get to me, begging. He finally found me. I have never been treated so badly in my life, I mean my entire life. And of course when I went down my grandson started to cry. Never, ever, ever. What a horrid place. read more

Will definitely return if they do another concert here. read more

Honestly this is my favorite venue for a concert! It's very nice, clean, easy parking in the pink zone, and very accessible without waking too far. It's right next to the Sofi Stadium, right in the center. It was my first time trying out this venue and it's beautiful. Came for the Jodeci concert, and it was a very nice. The seating is easy to find and the numbers is set up to know which side to go on, because of the seat numbers. They have food trucks on the 4th floor patio, which is a brilliant idea. Love this idea! They have good drinks and food to try inside as well. I also like that the bag policy is not bad as Sofi! You can have a bag up to 11X16.! It's hard to find a small bag or wear a clear one. The workers were very nice and directed us whenever we had a question! The parking is also not bad but feasible on the YouTube side. Overall, I will be back I enjoyed myself and the gorgeous venue. read more

Went to the concert Bronco on Friday 11-7-25 and oh boy we got the royal treatment. My mom and dad are older, still walking but my mom uses a cane for support. They grabbed us and took us to an empty line, did not check our purses or held us up, and guided us to an entrance with no stairs. I picked our seats carefully but then realized there were more stairs than expected. Luckily entering and exiting our seats had stairs going down (my mom struggles going up stairs but can manage more easily going down stairs) the worker there (oh my I wish I knew her name) helped my mom to her seat and grabbed her by the hand. My mom hugged her and thanked her. So the guest behind us wanted a hug from the worker too (so sweet!) and it was all just magical. Our section 301 was a vibe. So understanding of the difficulties my mom had of walking. A guest there asked for my phone to videotape me and my dad dancing. No one complained about anything. People were patient with us. They were hyping up my dad and mom. It was just a great experience overall. read more

This was probably one of the better venues I've been to. Space was intimate, club seats were super comfortable and came with perks such as 5 complimentary drinks (beer, wine, soft drinks), food was really good (the chicken tenders were some of the best I've ever had. Ranch was okay, kind of watery), and staff were SO kind. Maybe because it wasn't too crowded around the club area but the staff there were so kind and helpful. Definitely recommend buying the club seats, they're so worth it. You can eat comfortably while watching the show and you have a great view. read more

**Premium Club Upgrade Review** I've been here maybe a few times since they've opened. Some shows from the last 2 years include: 7/28/2023 - Logic & Juicy J 7/30/2023 - Yellowcard 10/3/2023 - The All-American Rejects 10/18/2023 - Janelle Monáe 9/12/2024 - Ray LaMontagne & Gregory Alan Islakov 10/3/2024 - Sum 41 All experiences have been fine. The theater is small enough at 6,000 seats plus the floor. Sound quality is great but definitely bring your earplugs (I have the Loop Experience 2 Plus). I kept receiving emails to upgrade my experience for Sum 41. I did buy 5 100-level tickets (me-designated driver plus boyfriend & his 3 friends), so I purchased 1 Premium Club Upgrade + VIP Parking @ $113.50, plus 4 Premium Club Upgrade @ $85 each. The sign for Premium Club entrance is where the VIP/Floor enteis but if you have seat tickets, you can't enter there. That was confusing for us and the employees as no one had the right answer... Was it worth it? Maybe, but mostly no. The Champion Club is nice with your own private "mini" bar/club/seating area/restrooms. If you value your restroom waiting time, then yeah sure, it's worth it. If you think you're going for a "complimentary" bar as the advertising misleadingly states, then no, it's not worth it. The tall boy cans of beer are still $20 a piece outside of the Champion Club within the YouTube theater. With your Premium Upgrade for $85 per ticket holder, each paid premium upgrade ticket holder gets a bracelet with 5 tabs. See attached photos. 1 tab is for 12oz cans of beer or candy/snacks. 2 tabs are for the cocktails (12oz Crown Royal Whiskey & Coke). Is 5 12oz Michelob Ultras worth $85 to you? It wasn't to me, but then again, I was DD so my 5 tabs were spent on 2 waters and 3 boxes of peanut M&Ms. Still not worth it. You know what was worth $10 right outside of the Champion Club? The fresh churro bites. Overall, I'll come here for more events but I won't buy the Premium Club Experience again because I don't see the value in it. read more

Came to the Totally Tubular festival because it didn't come to SD. First time here, and there are some pluses and minuses to the experience: Plus- -Staff was very nice, and super helpful. There are lots of challenges when you have mobility issues, and large events mean that much more to deal with. Everyone was helpful, between emailing about parking options, etc, and in person getting parked and in line to go in. Was asked several times if I needed more assistance. -The theater is pretty nice, and the seats are comfortable with cupholders. I didn't have to bring my seat cushion, because I looked at photos ahead of time. -I prepaid for parking, and got there early, so I was able to park fairly close. Also I left fairly quickly, so it was nice to not have to wait a long time to get out. -Sound quality was good, although the DJ music in between acts was louder than the show volume. -Restroom was in the entrance aisle for our section, so made it easy to get to it fast, and get in line at intermission. Minus- -Parking was fairly expensive at $38. I know it's probably more if you're at a football game, but I don't usually spend that much to park anywhere. Only other place I paid that much was at the Greek, because neither one have walkable options especially for ADA. -The venue didn't open until 7:00, for a 7:15 show. Which guarantees that at least 75% of the audience was stuck outside in the enormous line and missed the 1st (and maybe even 2nd) act. I got in the ADA line at 6:30, because I was afraid that would happen. I got in ok, but it wasn't easy for me. Luckily I was sitting the entire show. -The rows have almost no extra space, so you have to stand every time someone in your row wants to come in or go out. And the orchestra section is temporary chairs because it sometimes is SRO, so that means they're not as comfortable as the permanent chairs. -The women's restroom on our aisle was fairly small. Not only did you have to stand in line for a stall, you also had to line up to use one of the 4 sinks to wash your hands. -Drink prices were on the higher end, but not the worst. $7 for a bottled Pepsi, paid that recently at Open Air Theater as well. - Ticket also wasn't cheap, $100+ because of the lineup of bands that only played 3 to 6 songs each. Show had to be over by 11:45, but it was backed up an hour from the original 6:15 start time to 7:15. And the Tubes were added, so bands had smaller set times to compensate for that. Overall, a decent experience. Not as much hassle as I feared there might be, based on the last-minute changes. But I will definitely weigh the pros and cons before making the 2hr-plus drive to SoFi for another show. read more

I went there for a Metallica charity concert so clean so beautiful. I love the water fountains.

I've been to Sofi Stadium a million times as a season ticket holder for the Rams and getting invited to most concerts that happen there. Somehow, someway, I never saw the YouTube Theater which is adjacent to the stadium. I was confused about where exactly it was, but it's right next to SoFi and shares the same parking lot. I feel so silly! Who knew?! The security is way more lax and they don't have their own dining in the the theater proper. I don't know if this is always the case, but they had 6 food trucks outside and these are the same ones I've seen at other SoFi events. I've only tried two so far and was disappointed in both. $29 for bad poutine?! You've lost your mind. Now the theater itself has a great sound system and I loved the screens & lighting. Do NOT underestimate the power of a great sound system for musical acts. I've heard it all and it's superior sound at YouTube. You don't usually see such a high tech set up at smaller venues like this. YouTube seats up to 6000 people, completed in August 2021 so it's still fresh & new. My seats for the concert were in ROW A of the top 300 section. Great view and I will always get the first row so I don't have to stand my old ass for the full few hours the artist plays. But I think I'll go for the first row of the 200s next time for an even closer view. The seats have cup holders which is always a plus! They are a bit snug though so if you have a big booty like myself, proceed with caution lol. In conclusion, I suggest eating & pregaming before going to YouTube Theater. Definitely pre-buy parking. If you like general floor standing you're golden or for actual seats, it's the first row or nothing! read more

Great venue. Great seats. The bathroom stall had no line but had to wait in a rather long line to wash my hands after using the restroom, which was a little weird. The show started at 8pm, door opened at 7pm. Just barely made it to our seats after getting in and buying merch. Wish it had opened earlier! read more

YouTube Theater - Treasure at YouTube theater - Performing Arts Near Me - Inglewood, California

YouTube Theatre is a beautiful new theatre that is both big and intimate. Sitting about halfway back of Section 103, we had great seats. I nearly got tickets closer a few weeks earlier, which would have been even better but I delayed. Still, I loved the seats we did have. With a modern venue named YouTube Theatre, you would expect outstanding video screens to show the stage action, too, right?. Expectations met, and then some. The videos provide a great alternate view of the concert - which is sometimes better than watching the actual performers. In the case of the Janelle Monae concert, the videos gave a colorful and joyful boost to the already fantastic concert. Bring earplugs. The audio here is killer. The lyrics and the band's mix were crystal clear. It also is mighty big. The bass not only rattled my spine, it also made my head and scalp vibrate. Invigorating to be sure, and I was grateful we brought earplugs. Concessions are well-organized and easily accessible. There was a bit of a line at a big kiosk near the theatre entrance. As you make your way through the theatre, though, there are a number of other choices with smaller lines. There are plenty of ambassadors and ushers helping with patron traffic. Entering the theatre was cordial, professional, and easy. The bathrooms are clean, well-organized and well-equipped. The parking also works well. Through the required Parkwhiz app, I secured parking the day before. An offer for parking comes when you download your concert tickets, but I wasn't yet sure what made the most sense. And, even though Google Maps indicated that my parking area (the Blue Section) was half a mile away, it was in fact much closer. One note: though Waze got us there, the signage for the lot was unclear at the site. The address is on Prairie Avenue, but I think we turned on Hardy St. to access it. The lot was not well-marked, but it also seemed logical once you trust you are headed in the right direction. The YouTube Theatre is inside the SoFi Stadium. A cement parkway with a pond and trees makes for a welcoming entrance. I would highly recommend the YouTube Theatre. read more

I have been to the YouTube Theater twice to see the B52's and KC and The Sunshine Band and Jane's Addiction and Love and Rockets. The bands on both occasion were stellar and spectacular. In terms of the acoustics, I was highly satisfied. Sound wise there were no issues. The venue itself has some problems though. For both occasions, the theatre inside was hot and humid. Really humid. I was sweating. There was not enough air circulating and the humidity was terrible. So if you're going to dance, dress lightly, even in the winter. I saw Jane's Addiction in the height of summer and this is the kind of show where everyone is moving. It was so hot that someone behind me passed out. Most likely alcohol was involved but it didn't help that it felt like a sauna in this venue. The seats themselves were comfortable and there was ADA seating available. I am picky about bathrooms. They were kept clean but there were not enough of them. This is a newer facility so it's bizarre that there weren't more bathroom stalls available. Strange design flaw. The bathrooms only had two sinks and most of the time the soap dispensers weren't working which is gross and the paper towel dispensers were empty 50% of the time. You'd think COVID would of have served as a lesson on how to keep things sanitary but facilities being cheap is all about money and less about public health. This facility is ADA accessible. This is a good thing. There are ramps available. The outside of the building is aesthetically pleasing. It's a beautiful design choice, there are fountains and a variety of interesting foliage. Before entering the theater, there is a courtyard which is covered. This is a very comfortable area. It is well shaded and spacious. This is especially needed when you need a break from the humidity on the inside. The only issue I encountered was there was limited seating for enjoying food and drinks. In terms of food and drinks, there are stalls that sell water, soda and alcohol and inside the theater there is a bar. This was convenient but as expected not cheap. Water was about $6.87 with tax. Of course, this is exorbitant but due to the heat, necessary. The website contains the policy on bringing in certain types of bottles. Food. Agh, this was a point of contention for me. There were food trucks. They were very expensive and I found them to be lacking in choice. Additionally, it was just plain gross with long lines. So plan ahead. I asked the attendants about food and they referred me to the food trucks. After, I realized there was much more appealing food inside but I am unsure if it was available for purchase or if it was only for VIPs. It looked like better quality and more appealing food. Oh well, live and learn. I took a ride share to and from the venue. When I arrived the Uber driver was definitely confused and the attendants weren't much help but it was fine because there was a beautiful water feature with seagulls. It was a refreshing short walk. After the show on the other hand, it was a bit stressful. Although I asked several attendants before leaving the theatre about the rideshare situation, they weren't knowledgeable. There is no designated area that clearly states where to wait. The parking is structured in such a way that there are barriers in place. This made it difficult for my Uber driver to get to me. There needs to be better signage and a designated area for this option. I was not the only one in this situation as there were several parties waiting and lost as to what to do. Overall, the musical acts I saw were magnificent. I'm just posting so people can be aware and take preventative measures. Dress lightly, eat before or bring lots of money, check their website for the drinks policy, plan ahead, if possible, to make it a bit more pleasant for yourself. But otherwise it was a good, safe experience. read more

This was my first visit to YouTube Theatre last night to attend the Tony! Toni! Tone! - "Just Me and You" tour. The concert itself and the artists get 10+ stars for an awesome show. The venue how it is operated is strange which is why I'm rating it 4 stars. The parking is ridiculously priced I booked the parking on-line and paid $41.25 but other attendees at the gate paid $45.....the biggest disappointment was everyone's phones were locked in a pouch by staff and as you exit the concert the pouch is unlocked (like security tags on clothing). Then their were staff as you entered the entrance ask what seat you were assigned and hand you a sheet of paper with your seat number on it as your phone was locked up. Then to make matters worse the ushers who direct attendees were just standing around not really helping anyone to their seat (there are no row numbers on the floor like other venues) a tiny number/ letter on the side in black /white of the first seat of each row . It wasn't until the concert started that late attendees were helped by one employee to their seats. But any early attendees had to struggle around people sitting in rows or standing in aisles to figure out their seating location. The food indoors was priced $8-$17 dollars, drinks $17-$20. Otherwise there were food trucks outside, concert t-shirts from the venue $60 -$80... otherwise you could purchase a knock off in the parking lot from bootleggers for $10-$15 lol The venue was clean , new and chairs are new and comfortable. I purchased really good seats. The YouTube theatre is nice overall but how it runs its operations for directing concert attendees needs to be revamped. read more

Great people that work there for starters. Beautiful place and great sound, BUT The seats have your ass below your knees so it's not comfortable at all. Then the rows are so damn close together there's no room for your legs and you have to stand up every time someone needs to get by you. Whoever designed this place was a moron read more
