Jonathan Haidt shared very interesting ideas from his new book, The coddling of the American Mind. The staff was very professional and welcoming. The layout is very modern and spacious, utilizing metallic and wooden accents. The layout of the amphitheater is unique in that you dont feel too close or far from your neighbor. The security precautions were not overbearing and the lighting allowed for engagement and socializing.

Family Friendly! Architecture is amazing and the view of Pikes Peak is AWESOME! (Worth renting the lobby for an event) Seating allows for a great view in comfort. Staff is super polite and helpful. Great selections at Cafe. Performances are fantastic - great for Colorado Springs residents and guests of all ages.

What a great venue for enjoying the arts! Multiple stages for multiple events, concerts, live stage performance lectures. The lobby areas and outdoor area have great large scale art. The view of the mountains was fabulous with many balcony and patio spaces to enjoy the view.

This place was quite an experience. The ushers and staff were very friendly and accommodating. The architecture was well put together and a very fresh, clean and modern atmosphere to take in while waiting for show to begin. The theater area capacity wasnt as large as I anticipated from the lobby, etc. But the show was excellent and the lights and sound systems were great and complemented the entire show. I definitely plan to visit this place again!

First time at location- Nutcracker. Plenty of parking for event. Outside of building is stunning, piece of art. Inside well laid out, modern, art work on walls, ticket counter, cafe area. Theater was also nice. Theater not too big, which I felt was a positive - so everyone can see the stage and not feel too far away.

Beautiful new venue with three different sized theaters. Lobby is beautiful. State of the art facility. A bonus is that it is right across the street from University Village with a number of great restaurants for dinner before your show. A terrific addition to the UCCS campus and to the city of Colorado Springs!

This is a beautiful, brand new facility located on UCCSs campus. There is beer and wine available during events and the venue is great. Its not a huge area but its truly the perfect size for an intimate performance.

I absolutely love the theater here. In the round theater it is very small and personable. I watch The Christmas Carol the cast did an amazing job. The theater is absolutely beautiful and the clock they have in there is so astonishing. I highly recommend this place for dates or family.

A very nice venue with courteous and helpful staff. We now have seen two shows there and both have been exceptional. We are definitely planning in attending more events at the Ent Center. The picture with this review is from the front of the building (thru the glass). The center has a very nice view of the mountains.

Wonderful performance of a time honored classic story. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the sets were well done - enhanced and didnt distract from the play. Actors passion clearly evident - nice touch making yourselves available for pictures afterward. Family fun for all ages!

Really nice venue for local performing groups, not just those associated with the university. The staff are all pleasant, and there is a small drink and snack counter that you can partake of before and after shows and during intermission.

Review №23

Located on the UCCS campus it is quite a beautiful venue for theater, symphonys, and the performing arts. You can walk in and look around for free, but to attend an event you have to buy a ticket. The entire campus is nesteld up against the bluffs so there is a lot of up and down walking. Public parking is available, but limited, so arrive early.

We went to watch a play in their theater in the round. It was great being so close to the actors and the show was really well done. The facility is very nice and well laid out. There is plenty of parking and great views of the mountains from many locations. We really liked the art pieces out front and are glad some of those fantastic pieces were on display.

University of Colorado at Colorado Springs performing arts center is located above Colorado Springs with wall to wall glass windows overlooking the city - fantastic views, day or night. Robust lineup of events. Inside coffee shop with wine and beer available. Art museum on site. If you have the chance to see a perfirmance here, you will not be disappointed. Worth a stop even if you are just sight seeing.

The University of Colorado, Colorado springs is a gorgeous campus and the Center for the Arts is a good example of that. Fun visit with our granddaughter/tour guide who goes to school there.

Review №56

New Premier Performing Arts Center that was desperately needed here in Colorado Springs. Went to see a piano recital there a few nights ago and the performance was amazing and the acoustics in the venue were out of this world. Facility is state of the art and has plenty of different venues tailored for theater, music, etc. It will definitely be an extreme community draw as it gets better publicity.

The patrons who come to see events are not nice and turn their nose up to the students. So the atmosphere has an air of arrogance to it.

This building is new and it seems that it us the new music and visual art faculty for UCCS. Very modern and beautiful building. They also do performances, etc. Close to this building there is a new construction of what it seen a new building for sculpting, painting and that type of art. It really add to the area a esthetic view and a refinement that contrast and complement the big mall in the front. Very well done!!

Review №89

Amazing. Im a music student here and this place is wonderful. The view, soundproofing, theater, staff, and classrooms are all fantastic. The bathrooms are spacious and clean almost all the time. Ive gone here twice a week now for about 8 months and i have zero complaints.If I had to pick ONE gripe, its the parking lot. This is a free lot, so a lot of the students with no parking pass park here and take the bus up to the main campus, which makes parking a nightmare sometimes. Also, there are eco-friendly vehicle spots for hybrid or electric cars, but nobody seems to enforce it. So theres almost never a spot for my hybrid Civic because there are SUVs parked there.
