Great concert venue! We had seats fairly close but it looks like there isnt a bad seat in the house.

We normally do worship in the park at Foellinger Theatre each summer, but with the COVID-19 issues, the park is closed. Were so thankful they are allowing us to have worship in the park-ing lot instead! Come every Sunday at 8 a.m. during the summer!

Acoustically perfect.....We highly recommend catching a show. They have an awesome line up of shows every year. Here are some photos of the Alice Cooper show that about a dozen of my family members went to. Including a selfie with Ryan Roxie.

Went to see Eagles tribute band Hotel California. What a great night! Very easy to maneuver around, nice to be outside yet covered. Sound system and lights were spot on. Concession stands were good, and everything was very clean. Also, the ushers did an amazing job as well.

Every seat has a great view. The only downside is the bleacher seats are uncomfortable.

Love this venue! Big stage, great sightlines and classic style. Sound system very good as well. Only suggestion would be to expand concessions and add restrooms to East side. Easy to get in and out of. Blows away larger venues!

The theater itself is pretty small. Seats are larger than most other theaters, which is nice. Outdoors but covered with a roof.

Acoustics/sound system could be better. Venue is asthetically pleasing and the seats are comfortable. Enjoyed the evening listening to jazz.

The ABBA concert was great, but something was wrong with the costumes, the group did not change their outfits. The ABBA group are known for their unique dress wear,But the music was great, I wished they apologized to the audience if something went wrong.

Review №32

Great outdoor venue, not a bad seat in the house- up close and personal, I bought tickets from on line service paid more than it I bought them at the venue, the alcohol was $9 for beer/margarita, also had hamburgers, popcorn. Not many in attendance for Prince Tribute, need to step up their promoting of events.

Excellent venue. Saw Junior Brown, Steve Earle and Dwight Yoakam. Id definitely see another show there.

Review №34

I’ve been to several concerts here over the past few years. It’s a great clean place to go to for a show, but when it is warm outside, it gets a bit warmer sitting down below in the facility. Maybe they need to put some kind of fan system inside to try and keep the people cool.

First time for a concert since it had been remodeled. Perfect! Everyone has their own seat and no one running you over to get up front! Impressive.

The Guess Who were amazing and we got a perfect night to see them in this open air theater. (It has no walls, its essentially a gigantic pavillion. ) plenty of room to sit and walk in aisles. Any seats a great seat! They even have a concession with drinks.

Love this place and all the concerts they have but they need to look into the prices charge its starting to keep people away. Alcohol has also become unreasonably priced.

I love this place, BUT, The Little River Band played 1:15 minutes and with no Encore they left the stage to sell and sign their expensive Tee shirts. They Did the same thing last year!! Im glad we won the tickets or wed been more pissed.

My wife and I saw Modest Mouse there just. the. other. day. The seats were big with plenty of leg room. We sat in section 2 row R, which was basically eye level with the lead singer. But then everyone stood up and my wife (51) couldnt see the stage anymore. Getting out of the parking lot was terrible.

Great facility for theatrical events. Built in 1949 and remodeled in the seventies. Ticket prices are reasonable and parking is free. Seating capacity is around 2700. Bleacher seating tickets are less expensive if you choose to sit in those areas. The metal bleachers can be uncomfortable if your not prepared, bringing a seat cushion is recommended. The theater is an open air venue, so bug spray or a jacket can make for a more enjoyable experience. The theater draws unbelievable performers.

Review №72

I have been to 2 concerts at Foellinger this year. Both times the sound system was terrible. At the most recent concert you could not even hear the saxophone solo because all sound systems were just blaring. This is not music, the is noise. They need a new sound engineer.

Free movie night. With door prize drawing and free promotional give aways, spinners, Frisbees, ink pens and the like. Great way to spend a summer evening.

Another amazing concert put on by Hotel California!!

Review №75

The follinger theater is a great place for a concert but there are a few things that make it less than enjoyable. If you want a beer or food be prepared for at least a 20 minute wait in line. Beer is $7.00 but they have a captive audience. The Modest Mouse concert was not good due to the volume and the bass. I could not understand the singer and the bass was overpowering. My son who attended with me and has been to a lot more concerts than I have said it was to loud and we all agreed Ed to leave the concert early. When we got to the parking lot the sound was tolerable.

Review №78

It is always a nice clean place to go to see a concert at. Staff is very friendly. They also have a concession area where they serve hot dogs hamburgers popcorn candy just about anything you could want or at least I want and it is reasonably priced and they also serve alcohol if you want to have a beer or a slushie margarita. That is what we got but they had other things too. Highly recommend going there we like going there more than we do to other venues.

This is a great venue! It holds under 3,000 people, so there isnt a bad seat in the house. If you go, be sure to dress in comfortable clothing. The shows are always during the summer, and theres very little air movement.

Review №83

This place is one of my favorite concert venues in all of Fort Wayne. It has lots of seating, good concession prices, and generally affordable tickets. It is run by the Fort Wayne Parks Department, which can be seen in the upkeep and maintained of the venue. It is COMPLETELY covered, so if it rains, youre good, but for concerts in the fall, you would definitely need a jacket since it can get chilly when the sun goes down, since its not enclosed on the sides.

The only outdoor theater in Fort Wayne and the best in Indiana. They bring quality acts for low prices in a safe, family environment.
