Very cool concert hall. Not your traditional box but more of a theater in the round. You can get $20 symphony tickets in the dress circle behind the percussion section, which is a great place to watch especially piano concertos and see the conductor. And the sound is still good there. Not really a bad seat in the house. And the Colorado Symphony and Chorus are both quite good!

I really like Boettcher! Theater in the round settings are rare, and this one is a perfect size; not too big or small. I sat in the upper rings for the first time recently and was pleasantly surprised by those seats. You have a very different, birds eye view of the stage and it makes you feel like youre in the concert scene from home alone 2. Pretty cool!

Decent hall. The outside is gorgeous. Purchased the wrong tickets for the evening unknowingly and had to repurchase for the night I arrive. Disheartening. However, the staff gave a slight discount. Great show otherwise for an opening.

The Harry Potter Concert was awesome. Will be back soon for some of their other concerts.

Went to see Cynthia Eriva with the orchestra. It was one of the best concerts we have been to see. We did not want the evening to end. Love watching the orchestra.

I had a fantastic time here last night. I saw Hanson with the orchestra and it was truly magical. I bought cheap tickets and I will post pictures if the hall will allow it. This was my first experience here and I brought two 16 year olds and one 4 year old. Every seat would be a good seat in this hall. The employees were super nice and friendly. Drinks were a bit pricey but that is always expected at all events. Great job everyone who worked last night and who played.

This is a beautiful place to enjoy a performance. The acoustics are excellent.

Fantastic place to catch the symphony. Coffee and other drinks available in the lobby before performances and during intermission. Parking is nice and close and easily accessible.

My mom took my sister and I here when we were kids and now Im taking my kids. Tonight I took my mom, sister, husband and kids to my kids very first Gilbert and Sullivan production. They adored every minute and cant wait to go again. Were so blessed to have our Colorado Symphony!

Beautiful auditorium and sound, great conductor, and amazing symphony. My only comment against a 5-star rating is the seats are not comfortable enough to sit through a movie, especially if you suffer of back or tail bone injuries. Otherwise, I love going and listening to this group perform every time!

Performing Arts excellence at its finest. Welcome to Denvers Boettcher Concert Hall. Perhaps a prime example of Denvers vast and ever changing venue scene. With accommodations large and small, this venue most certainly reserves the right to boast its stellar facilities, that represent modern theatre experiences, that remain consistent in furthermore enhancing the already impressive Denver large scale venue space. Home of the Colorado Symphony, & residency of the Colorado Childrens Chorale, youre sure to find an event to keep you intrigued. With the adjoining, Buell Theater, that hosts various Broadway Shows throughout the performing season, its a sight to see what this district offers. This is what exceptional standards look like.

The seating was awesome and my sisters graduation could’ve been better.

The Colorado Symphony is wonderful. My Husband and I go VERY often. Maestro Christopher dragon is unbelievable to watch, but even more so to hear. Any conductor that has the privilege to conduct this Symphony is lucky.

The Boettcher Concert Hall is a beautiful facility with great acoustics. Its built to place the orchestra in the round, i.e., with the audience spread 360 degrees around. Though there were a lot gray-haired heads in the audience, younger folks might be surprised at how much they enjoy the virtuoso musicianship of the Denver Symphony in such a facility. Im not sure theres a bad seat in the house.

The acoustics are fantastic and the movie series symphony performances are exceptional. These performances are a must for music and movie fans of all ages. Well be back several times each year and highly recommend everyone to see a performance.

A beautiful eclectic concert venue interior, with a rich history for those of us that grew up here. However the non-traditional arcs and curves of the seating can block views from upper levels and from overhead lights in the uppermost balcony. Still a very good time, the only main critique is to have better labels on the seating sections and rows

This place is a fantastic concert venue. I have been here over the years for Symphony performances. I had the opportunity to check out my favorite band, Mandolin Orange, playing with the Colorado Symphony. 10 of 10 would recommend.

The Colorado Symphony is top notch. Great performances every time.

Very nice and intimate concert hall with very good sight lines and A-/B+ acoustics. The seats are high-back and comfortable. Depending on where youre seated, you should be able to see at least 80 percent of the stage.one of the things I like to watch are the musicians and how they react to what they are playing. We watched someone in the viola section who completely and thoroughly enjoyed sharing his talent and it showed.Note: The audience sits around the stage.

You wont be disappointed. The concert hall has great acoustics, and it is fairly easy to get to your seats. Bathrooms in the second floor will have shorter lines, so keep that in mind. Also, arrive 45 minutes early to insure that youll be able to park in the closest parking garage.

Always a fun time. Love going to the symphony and they offer so much for adults and kids alike. My favorites are the movie and symphony events.

I had season tickets last year, this year I miss having them. This is a wonderful place. Please take time and visit. The staff is amazing and the shows are soul enrichment.

Has the potential to be a cool space, but I didn’t really like it that much. I went and saw Pirates of Penzance there and the “stage” was too small and I felt like the seats were just... kind of in the wrong location. Also, the ceiling is COVERED in glass plates and sound/lights equipment and it kind of destroys the elegance of the space. Compared to other venues, I would much rather see a show at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House.

My girlfriend and I went for the Colorado Syphony featuring the music of Selena and we had a blast! We sat in the 4th ring at the top and I was still impressed! I truly believe there are no bad seats in that venue. Cant wait to see another show!

Really enjoyed Rick Steves and the Colorado Symphony! Great concert hall!

This concert hall offers the lovely experience of a concert in a 360 degree setting. Well thought out for the layout, and the acoustics are delightful

The views and acoustics are excellent in this concert hall! Ive been to three or four performances here over the last several years. It can be challenging to find your seats without the help of the ushers, and the bathrooms arent conveniently located. Otherwise, its always enjoyable to hear the Colorado Symphony Orchestra here!

I love every time I come to this concert call.

Absolutely detested the security for this elegant event! What are times coming to when a largely geriatric population in attendance poses a threat. Otherwise, the music was lovely. Is this the new normal that we treat the performing arts like a sporting venue?

The venue is very pretty, seems like most seats are great. The hall itself has fantastic sound, and the ceiling is so fun! The stage is round with seating all around, I really like that.Im giving it 3 stars because the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed when we were there. There was an employee (older female) who was legit scolding another employee, right in front of myself and my kids, it was SO awkward. And when the employee getting scolded basically apologized the lady berating her just kept going. Totally took me out of the mood but once we were seated and the performance started all was good again

Recently saw the Nightmare Before Christmas live movie in concert here and had a ball! Beautiful location with tons of options for drinks. Pricey cocktails. I think right around $7 for a beer and my cocktail was $14, but I expected it. No food allowed inside. Only con is there arent cup holders and if youre seated near a railing you cannot place your drink down on the railing area. Weird, but understandable.

Such a rewarding a d wonderful experience! The concert hall is beautiful

Such a lovely venue! The sound quality is superb. The ushers are great about getting you to your correct seats. Bathrooms are very clean and well stocked. Its such a wonderful experience!

Of the orchestral venues Ive had the privilege of hearing fantastic musicals, symphonies and philharmonics, Denver tanks high altitude.

Great place a concert or symphony. The place is well kept. The staff are friendly and very helpful. I recommend this place.

A really enjoyable venue. Comfortable and I honestly dont think there is a bad seat in the house. Also, the privilege of watching the amazing Colorado symphony perform is great.

We took the light rail downtown, so we didnt have top deal with parking. The concert hall was all decorated for the holidays.

Had a fantastic time at the Symphony Halloween special! Watching the conductor was half the fun - he was so animated! Watching them play along with a movie like Nightmare Before Christmas really highlights how much music influences what youre watching!

Beautiful venue And great acoustics esp for Mandolin Orange and Colorado Symphony together

Attended a field trip for Drums of the World today and the usher I had to deal with was extremely rude. He yelled at our teachers and told my autistic 7 year old, Yes theres a bathroom here but youre not using it, now get out. Apparently he was wearing a Santa hat just for irony. I gave two stars because the hall was nice and the concert was fun, but all it takes is one person to ruin your whole experience.

Very interesting architecture once you get inside, fabulous sound quality, very helpful ushers, love taking the family here.

Magical night with the orchestra remembering John Denver.

Loved the venue! Staff was awesome and everyone had a fantastic time!

Best symphonic experience in Colorado. Great programming, guests, and schedule. Exceptional production quality.

Love the theater in the round. The ability to see the entire orchestra from the side of behind is so fun. The sound is all encompassing and gorgeous there.

Great event. Would suggest going next time its scheduled.

I had my high school graduation ceremony here and I really liked the overall environment of the auditorium.

Excellent time. Beautiful space. Good seating all around

One of the nicest concert halls I have seen.. Friendly atmosphere and one of my favorite spots to go for classical music. Home of a very very decent symphony orchestra

The performance was top notch. Unfortunately there was an electronic noise that kept distracting from the music every minute or two in our area. The entire second movement was difficult to pay attention to because of it.

Amazing experience, fantastic symphony. My daughter and I really enjoyed the program. Might make this a family routine to remind us of how wonderful music can feel.

Amazing concert hall with great acoustics. The Colorado Symphony is a treasure, trust me, its not boring at all - youve got to go see it. They also do a season preview concert every year which is FREE to attend, plenty of seating available. No excuses. Plus, theres a bar there too if youd like to boost your night with some alcohol.

It was great to see the Colorado Symphony Orchestra play their tribute to Beethoven who celebrates his 250th birthday later this year. We are even more excited to see the CSO perform the 9th at Red Rocks this summer!

Very elegant and great acoustics. Denver Symphony is wonderful. Did the score soundtrack from Home Alone. Truly enjoyed the performance.

Superb acoustics and talented, well-rehearsed musicians.

Colorado Symphony played the full score of Star Wars Return of the Jedi flawlessly and the acoustics of the concert hall amplified it well. The staff was helpful and inviting.

Great place to hear the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. Not a bad seat in the house.

Its a great venue where the in-house and guests are amazing.

I have not been to Boettcher in many years. This place never disappoints. I am always amazed at the acoustics and beautiful, bug sounds able to be created in this venue. We attended the Symphony and it was great. Parking in the DPAC parking lot is a nightmare and you need to plan an extra hour just to get in the garage. Light rail drops off right there which we will do next time.

First time coming to Boettcher Hall and I had a good experience. It was an easy process getting in and there was good signage and staff to direct me to my seat. The seat was comfortable and from what I could tell, all seats were well situated to get at least a decent view of the stage. I was there for the Colorado Symphony and they sounded great in the space, although a couple instruments I thought could have been a bit louder, not sure if that was microphone issues or just the way the piece was supposed to sound. Had a lovely evening and would come back again!

This is a BEAUTIFUL venue, that really integrates the natural elements found around Colorado into an amazing performing arts space. Theres not a bad seat to be had, and retains a real air of intimacy.

The Childrens concert was great for our kids one through ten years old

So much talent in one room! This is a great place for anyone to bring a first date. They have a decent snack selection and drinks as well. The parking was easy enough. I usually stress out about city parking, but they had a valet service that made everything easy! I will definitely be back here many more times :)

Everyone was very kind and helpful! Close parking but pay for convenience! Really enjoyed the show!!!

The symphony is incredibly skilled and it shows. Sometimes you forget you are listening to live people because the music is so perfect. The atmosphere is decidedly un-snooty, the staff is lovely. Everyone is here for the love of the music. I will definitely come here again. I pre-booked parking at the DCPA garage and its literally across the street, very handy!BTW, while the music is great in all seats, sometimes its hard to hear things being said on microphone because of the way the sound system points. Keep that in mind if you arent a straight shot out from the orchestra!

Sound as always amazing no matter where you sit. Watching the musicians is entrancing.

Beautiful venue. Staff is always helpful. Love going to shows here!

Great musicians, incredible conductor.

Absolutely lovely venue. Theres not a bad seat in the house. The employees are nice and helpful, and the bartender was very friendly and accommodating. The parking garage for the Performing Arts Complex is where you should plan to park. I would definitely recommend seeing a show here.

Home of the Colorado Symphony orchestra. October 04th 2019. Featuring program of American music and Tchaikovsky Symphony number 4. A major tribute to Charlie Burrell (look him up). Masterfully conducted by Brett Mitchell. (Look him up also).

Enjoyed an all-Beethoven concert here. Sat behind the orchestra closest to the trumpet section in the last row. Amazing view. The acoustics are phenomenal. The sound shells on the ceiling are beautiful to look at and amazingly functional. I love this venue!

What a nice concert hall. Great acoustics. Seating is amazing. Nice elevation rise so no blocked views. I dont think there could be a bad seat in the house. Parking however is hitrosious. Must arrive a minimum of an hour early to find parking.

Handels Messiah was the most moving concert I have ever witnessed! Stunning!

The symphony orchestra itself is great. Sadly, the design of Boettcher Concert Hall and some of its facilities were not made for human bodies. I literally have never sat in less comfortable seats. We were both suffering in lower back pain the entire time and eventually had to leave a bit early because it was such a struggle and balancing act. Ive sat in plenty of old movie theater seats of a similar style, and uncomfortable church pews, but none of them compare to the awful experience of these. It was distracting from the beautiful music.Before we even reached those seats, we were already commenting on how poorly designed the loose, wobbly sandstone tiles were for us walking in heels and wedges (just outside the entrance to the theater), and then in the womens restroom, the lighting and depth of the washroom mirrors made simple routine makeup reapplication difficult. Some architect out there really failed to consider the customers usage perspectives! We have season tickets, and my girlfriend has been experiencing and suffering these seats for years. It really makes going back a difficult situation to consider.

Fantastic concert hall. Good acoustics and good views.

Really hoping the performing arts center makes an investment and tears this place down. The symphony deserves better than this venue. We went on a fun night, for Comic-Con themed music. The symphony looked like they were having a blast and the audience was loving the fun atmosphere. Unfortunately the acoustics are so poor that unless you get a great seat, you really are missing out on what the musicians have to offer the city.

Went for video games live. Amazing sound no matter where you sit. Loved it!

Awesome spot to watch the Symphony. Very nice stage and setup. No matter where you sit you have a great view

Very good and top quality!! Nice venue.

We had a wonderful time!! So happy to have had the chance!

Denver wants to tear it down but the first round symphony hall in the United States still sounds amazing.

Had an unforgettable experience that our family will be talking about for years to come. We hope to return again soon.

Great place to enjoy the symphony.

Great venue for the symphony. A few feedback problems but overall excellent sound.

Nice venue. They could speed up the entry process. The guy taking tickets struggled with the scanner.

The Young Artist Concert was amazing especially the Ellis Island presentation

Drums of the World was really cool. My wife and I enjoyed it.

Everyone was very pleasant and helpful. Kudos to staff and volunteers. Comfortable. And great show. Just the right length. BUT unless toy ate inn orchestra seats those with walkers or wheelchairs have no voices but back row off mezzanine. The elevators are inconvenient. But all in all we had a lovely experience.

Beautiful venue with good acoustics and a good angle of rise for seats so that everybody can see the stage. Seats were ok for comfort level (not great, not terrible).Due to the discounted kids tickets, its more likely than not that youll have some near you. The ones next to us werent particularly bad, but the constant fighting with their parents two seats over clashed a bit with the eloquence of the orchestra.The reason for 2 stars is there was little to no air conditioning and I was sweating the whole time - wasnt even wearing a sports jacket or something to make me hot. Will try going back once more to see if maybe it was a fluke that it was so hot, but if its hot again, the next time will be the last time. Note that I was on mezzanine 6, which is toward the upper part of the concert hall, which might have attributed to the heat. Not sure though since it was only 70-80 degrees outside so its not like their AC system would have had to work hard to keep a reasonable temperature. Will try orchestra 1 next time so Im as low as it gets ;)

I love live music, plays and holiday events at Boettcher concert hall

Great MLK Celebration. Violinist was amazing.

Tribute to Aretha! Great show. Loved it

Im so very grateful for every single person who shared last nights musical celebration of people who continue to be marvelous examples of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.s dream for what I identify as an economics of compassion. Thank you all so very much!Dr. King said that Compassion is more than flinging a coin to a begger.... It comes to see that the edifice that produces beggars needs restructuring.The uplifting music of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, combined with the rhythms of jazz resonated, with the strength of our collective power, to restructure our living energy currency of compassion.

Great venue. Acoustics were incredible.

Dated but not the vintage cool dated. Great views of the stage and acoustics were good. Weve been here for a couple concerts and enjoyed them. Overall its nice and enjoyable.

Love the way it sounds! It is a little difficult to get around the atrium and I wish there was a little more signage to help with where to go, but the people that work there are super helpful and friendly, not to mention there is a good number of them. They have added some additional drink stands that make refreshments quick to get and lines reasonable. The hall has a beautiful shape to it and a wonderful esthetic. The seats are comfortable and my knees dont hit the back of the seat in front of me. The musicianship is top notch and the conductor is very entertaining between sets of music. Sometimes he even wears costumes! Tickets are very reasonably priced when compared to other events in town.

It is a great place for a symphony. Wonderful hostess personnel. Great sound.

Beautiful concert hall and we are so lucky to have it here in Denver. Got to see the DYAO musicians play who did a super performance.

What a show... just fabulous

Such an amazing time. The staff was incredibly helpful and kind. Saw the Colorado Orchestra preform amazing songs from the final fantasy game series. It was so breath taking the lighting was excellent, the lighting hilighted the performers well and the screens used with the show were placed in good spots to see the media and the performance.
