Our first visit was a pleasant experience. Kris Kristofferson and his group were talented and very entertaining. Balcony seating on the wings provides great views. Carefully review the theaters policies on what you can bring. There are many limitations/restrictions for public safety.

A very classic and beautiful design of the theater. Good venue for an acoustic concert or play. Seating is design fairly flat, so not easy to see past the people in front of you. During one concert one of the staff members interrupted my video to say “no videos allowed” while I saw numerous people taking vids in front of me. An unenforceable policy with rows of 20+ seats.

Be prepared to be hassled by the staff and the over the top rules and regulations at this venue !!! The venue itself looks quite nice , but that’s all I can say positive about our experience here . Never in all my decades of 100’s of concert attendances have I seen so many rules and regulations for attending a concert . Missed the entire first part of the show because apparently there is a purse size regulation , and my girlfriend had to return her normal sized purse to the car , in the cold because the purse didn’t meet the “ purse size regulations “ .We almost didn’t get to go in the doors , as they locked the doors after the show started , and we had to pound on locked doors until someone unlocked the door for us and then the staff shamed us for being late . I could go on and on about the manners of which this place is set up to hassle you about something , but the point of this review is be advised that this venue is a nice looking place with over the top rules and a staff that seems to enjoy hassling everyone .

Very good acoustically with a pleasant warm vibe. A throwback to when theatre had a meaning. I would have rated it 5 stars had the beverage area not closed half way through the concert. Left many a patron thirsty with money to spend. Leaving a nice amount of profit on the table. Overall though a really nice atmosphere. BBS acoustic show 3/26/19

Hope you like being told to sit down, and expensive drinks, because youll likely miss a good part of your show if your wife brings a purse big enough for her cellphone. Enjoy your seats meant for a play. Concert sound quality isnt available for 60% of the audience sitting under the balcony.

Victory Theatre was a great venue to see William Shatner with his 5 star live q and a. Victory Theatre had many helpful ushers, clean bathrooms, great sound system, and more. Id be glad to go back again.

This is a great place for performances and concerts. Dont take any medal with you cuz they run you through metal detectors. Leave your purse at home too.

Had a great time at the Aaron Lewis concert. Remember no bags or youll have to go back to your vehicle. A bit crowded when you walk in.

Saw Criss Angel RAW. Staff was very friendly. One of the ladies was only 4 weeks out of knee replacement and was at work on crutches. Not a bad seat in the house. Seats are comfortable. A little tight fitting with a packed house, but very tolerable. Didnt spend much time sitting. LOL

Review №32

The floor seating has no pitch to floor. If you sit behind someone who is taller then you or is wearing a hat you cannot see around them to see who is on stage. Went and saw Tom Segura and had to look around the guy in front of me due to the lack of Stadium Seating. The rest of the theater was adequate. Get front row or balcony if youre going here for a show.

The Evansville Philharmonic is a treasure in Evansville. Alfred and Kitty Davis will be so very missed. The Victory Theater is another gem in Evansville!

Great place to go see a show. We went a lot to see the Evansville philharmonic orchestra. Seating is very comfortable, and each seat is raised above the row in front of it just enough to have a clear view. Acoustics of the theater are amazing. Each show always sounds amazing. Alcohol is served as well as non alcoholic beverages and snacks. Parking can be frustrating so get there early.

Review №39

Decent venue with a great location. I have only been to one event so far, so Im not sure of the other floor plans for different events. To watch a movie, it wasnt that accommodating and I was in row G. Would have been 4 stars with more venue info prior and some more amenities. The discussion Q&A was good as was Mr. William Shatner. Thanks for the memory!

I cant believe this place is still open. The building is stunning, and just the right size for a musical performance. I found out at the last minute about a world class musician playing at the Victory, and I was shocked how good the acoustics were. The seats were comfortable and the staff worked well to keep the crowd organized

Review №53

Easy accessible from area parking (housing, et al). Great older, smaller venue to experience a play, concert, etc. IMO, Acoustics are better than some other local venues. Have never experienced a bad seat to view whatever experience we have attended at The Victory.

Review №61

This is a fantastic and historical theatre. John Williams night was very powerful. The Philharmonic does a great job using this venue to its full potential. It is a wonderful place to see musical performances of any kind. If a big event is occurring simultaneously at the Ford center, leave early because parking is no longer convenient.

Review №64

Seating is very narrow and cramped, security lords over Patons lining the walls of the venue, very limited access to refreshments and very long wait times. All of this distracts from what should be an enjoyable event. Not a good event space, will avoid until under new management and a renovation takes place
