Architectural masterpiece, inspiring! A theater inside for performances. An icon for UCLA!

I love Neil Youngs songs, Long time ago, He played here, And recorded Love In Mind(Time Fades Away 1973 ) at this Royce Hall.

Good campus theatre which has the full of the history of UCLA. Came here for the shows of CAP at UCLA. Always has the good stage performances. Beautiful theatre with the great management and the wonderful views on the west wing balcony in sunset.

Very much enjoyed the Gregory Porter concert! The views and acoustics were fantastic from the right balcony. I look forward to visiting again in the future for more concerts and shows

Royce Hall is a beautiful Building inside and out. The university keeps it in wonderful condition. Its easy to hear who is on stage. I always choose to sit on the ground floor as close to the stage as possible. The seats are well cushioned and large enough to accommodate an average person.

Awesome Venue with family history. Saw a great jazz concert here. My partner is a alumni and hadnt been in the building since she was a freshman. We were staying in the area that night and she offered a tour of the campus and memory lane. We spent most of the next day on the campus.

It brings back memories and creates new ones. It reminds us of adversity and rekindles our quest for diversity. It is nostalgia and hope. It is UCLA.

Royce Hall is stunningly beautiful as is the library across the courtyard. The Acoustics were mind-bogglingly good. It has a wonderful feeling and environment once you step through the doors, and it is a place I feel tremendously comfortable and at home in. Besides that, the person that brought me deserves 6 Stars.

I have been there many times for concerts, events ets.. the building is historic and beautiful (specially at night with a good moonlight). The only negative that comes to mind is the fact that it is not very accessible and distance between parking and building is considerable. The inside is pretty standard and nothing very stands out but I like its classic soul

A great medium sized theater on the UCLA campus. We were there for a concert and everything from parking, to the shuttles from the parking structure, to the beautiful theater itself were all great. The acoustics were decent and the seats were super comfortable. I look forward to visiting again.

Beautiful building and a lovely quad area. A great place to hangout and take pictures. The architecture is fascinating and reminds you of Europe.

Outstanding venue for concerts and talks. An incredibly beautiful building inside and out.

Gorgeous theater on an absolutely beautiful campus. Great sound and small enough where all the seats are decent.The only major ding... why sell alcohol but not tell us that we can’t bring alcohol into the theater!?! So it forces you to chug as soon as you buy the drinks. What a weird set up...

If you have an event there, go early because the hall is not very big.The outside and the inside are really nice!

Beautiful architectural landmark which is synonymous with UCLA. Venue for lectures and events, both academic and otherwise. Youve undoubtedly seen it appear in a Hollywood film as it is a popular location for movie ahoots, etc.

Great place! This building has some great history to it!

Being here is like a dream come true. I always wanted to be a Bruin and now, Royce Hall has become my go to getaway spot. My very first class at UCLA was in Royce Hall so this iconic building will always have a special place with me.

Building is nice, students meh

Very Nice! Lior Suchard and more VIP performed for Save a Heart charity event.

Finally! I have my Sunday morning, football on the big screen, breakfast buffet, cheap mimosa sports bar and so close to my hood that I can ride my bike and take advantage of the great drink specials. In all honesty, I didnt try the breakfast but I know it was free. Kind of dark inside but there is a big open window that lets in a lot of light and has a counter for you to lean on in case there is anyone out there who still smokes. Cant wait til Sunday.

Pie Fest at UCLA sponsored by KCRW. Awesome.

Its a very beautiful place that is almost relaxing. I loved walking by its large brick walls and realizing the meaning behind the building.

Always love having class here. Royce court is so nice

A justifiably famous venue. I was just back for the first time since high school and it still inspires that sense of history that 16 year old Misha was taken by. You know the names of the folks who have played here, and something about their essence still lingers. The upstairs poster room is dope too.

A beautiful place to visit at night time. The campus quad is fabulous. Inside Powell Library is incredible.

A Bruin will ALWAYS love Royce Hall!

It was so beautiful and it was very peaceful outside. Its a perfect place to relax.

Beautiful architecture, super historic building. Also wonderful interior details and design.

Its such a luxury to enjoy live music here at this amazing and gorgeous theater. The architecture and the ceiling is so beautifully crafted.

Beautiful iconic building on UCLA campus in central quad with an interesting history of architectural design embedded in the front facade.

Love this place!!! The atmosphere is amazing. So much fun! Arrive early and try to sit in the middle so you can see both piano players at the same time.

Best venue in the city. Absolutely amazing.

Royce Hall is the landmark icon of UCLA and rightly so. Its beautiful and grand and is a symbol of academic achievement at one of the best institutions in the nation. Utilitarian wise, I have been to several Cultural nights in the historic auditorium and it is the perfect place to host those.

Interesting architecture, definitely feels old school. Not particularly ornate as the Pantages theatre in Hollywood, still has an amazing feel of authenticity.The Los Angeles Ballet performance of The Nutcracker in December was delightful. From the balcony, we could see the entire stage come to life. My kids enjoyed the ballet, especially my 10 year old daughter.The audio was good, with ample sound for a classical performance. We will visit again for a concert. Parking was about a mile walk, but we enjoyed walking through the historic UCLA campus.

Beautiful Hall. I went to see Setgio Mendes and Bebel Gilberto... amazing experience.... The sounds that come out of that hall are spectacular

Beautiful audience hall. Royce hall hosts events (TED), concerts, and student performances. All shows are of high quality and provide the community with a large diversity in the types of performance. Big name bands have visited Royce Hall. There are discount tickets available for students

Greatness starts here! Bring your camera and take some epic shots. The best scenery. Love the fountain.

Its beautiful place! Great place to do a fundraiser

Such a beautiful auditorium for a graduation. It was perfect, not too big and not too small. Outstanding architecture

Historic exterior architecture reveals a beautiful theater inside at this founding UCLA building.

GREAT venue! Not a bad seat in the house!

So much fun! Music great! Security guys super cool. Hope to get my Tom Petty song next time . Thank you!

Historic building. Classrooms a bit run down. Theater nice.

Two Bars which makes for getting your drink faster. They had a live cover band that played a wide range of music, all of which was conducive to singing and dancing. Overall a good casual place to go for drinks, not much seating available and the place was pretty packed by 11:30 on a Friday.

One of the oldest brick structures on campus. nooks and crannies galore.

Gorgeous. Could use more signage

Historic and Iconic building not only of great presence outside but of magnificent architecture and design inside .... made to enjoy magnificent performances.... lectures.... etc. A must place to visit...

Came to see Chevelle on Friday the 13th and had a great time. Everyone working the venue was friendly and accommodating. It was clean and all around put together. I cannot remember the servers name but she made the whole event so much better. She took orders from inside the crowd and actually brought them into the crowd. She was fast and had a great memory.

Large seating capacity. Procession by graduating students was impressive. Nice ceremony

Amazing facility for concerts.

Beautiful building but the interior need to be remodeled and updated. Looks to old!

The Best campus in my mind.

Went on a Wednesday and it was pretty obvious they had the B team on. 3 guys, no girl. They didnt know bohemian rhapsody...... were pretty open about not knowing a lot of the simple songs people were requesting.

Royce Hall is the heart of the university. One of the first buildings on campus, it has architectural charm from another era as well as a friendly Harry Potter vibe. Go Bruins.

I was very disappointed. I did not get to meet Mr. Or Mrs. Royce. Ive heard many good things about them and their homemade chicken pot pies. There were no mash potatoes served at the performance I attended. Very upsetting. UCLA get it together. We want chicken pot pies and mash potatoes!

This place is a favorite. The music always sounds good, the crowd is not too big, nor too small. This is the best venue to see your musician of choice. Highly recommended!!

Here for a Joan Baez concert. Of course Joan was wonderful, but the venue added so much to the experience. Beautiful interior, good acoustics, and very helpful ushers. I was especially impressed by the free shuttle from the parking structure.

Its an interesting cultural and educational place, beautiful on its architecture.

Great atmosphere, chicken strips were good, but the fish tacos were gross! The pianists were freak-in awesome. They got down.

We had the cheap seats so they arent going to be the best in the house but we were literally sitting sideways facing away from the stage with a railing blocking our view. The parking attendant told us that the garage was the only place to park and that it was cash only (why is it cash only? Its 2019, who carries cash? Also something that should be communicated before even purchasing tickets.) but when we went to get cash we found parking around the corner two blocks away. Even without those two extra blocks it was an extremely long walk with lots of hills for someone dressed up in high heels to go to the theater. The show was amazing and Batsheva dance company is the only reason this review gets as many stars as it did.

I went to see Tigran Hamasyan play here at Royce Hall and I must say that my experience was rather unfortunate.I want to point out that while I had a great time at the concert, the staffers at Royce Hall did a relatively terrible job managing the show because while a show is going on, it seems that the ushers let people in as the concert in progress. I understand that this is to let people, who paid for their tickets, in but when it gets to the point that so many people are being let in at 20-30 minute intervals and to the point that the performer himself actually has to stop the concert just to let people take their seats, that just completely ruins the experience for everyone. I truly hope that the staff at Royce Hall is made aware of this because if this is a common practice at the performing center, they should know that letting huge groups of people in during the concert just spoils the performance. It is just rude and inconsiderate to the performer and the audience and it would perhaps be ideal to at least let the tardy people come in at the proper timing instead of during a song.

This is a very nice Hall auditorium, spacious and comfortable. Great sound system and clean facilities.

Beautiful place in UCLA. This university is gorgeous and brilliant over all.

We went to go see the Nutcracker. This was our Christmas present to each other! It was beautiful. The ballet dancers were phenomenal, the theater was cozy, but the seating was a little tight. The Ballet rocks!!!

I love Fado and Maritza is a top performer. Great atmosphere and beautiful evening filled with great music and a delightful powerful voice!.]

Amazingly almost symmetric with small details of diffference in each tower. My vantage point was the library steps.

A wonderful place to see a show!

Amazing performances by Hamid Saeidi and his production.

Saw John McLaughlins last show here and it was absolutely epic. This venue is pretty incredible, the main theater area is majestic, and very aesthetically pleasing. Acoustics were great, we sat in the upper balcony area and had a superb view too. Definitely coming back to this venue for shows in the future.

Signature building of UCLA. Feels classical but alive.

If youre a UCLA student, seeing Royce Hall in its beauty makes you proud to be a Bruin. If youre not a UCLA student, it makes you want to be a Bruin. The auditorium inside is impressively large. The classrooms are relatively new and clean as well. Definitely a highlight of UCLAs campus.

We saw the youth symphony perform here...for free! Let me start off by saying that it is great that they periodically offer things like this for free! We took my daughter and she really liked it. The hall was clean and it was neat that we got to sit up on the balcony.

It is a big campus, take a while to find the building. Many parking structure on the campus.Parking lot is close to the building, only a few minutes walk.The building is well maintained. The theater is not too big. The ceiling is gorgeous!

Great venue for a large crowd!

Always have a good time when we go to the Shout House & that is why I picked it for my friends bachelor party this weekend! Cant wait to have another awesome time!

Along with Powell Library and Janss steps, Royce is one of the most iconic places on the campus, and has an absolutely stunning auditorium for events and the like. Royce also has some of the nicer lecture halls and classrooms on campus along with Haines and the rest of the humanities area.

The decor. The organ. Beautiful space.

It was amazing sooo beautiful

We say in the right corner of the balcony so couldnt see 20% of the stage. Otherwise, it was the right venue for the Nutcracker performed by the LA Ballet Company.

Great intimate venue on the beautiful UCLA campus with very interesting events. You cant go wrong seeing any type of performance here.

Not so good as I thought!!!!Very expressive restaurant.Just for a show and service very bad...

Beautiful classic theater with great acoustics.

Nice. Very detailed structure. Narrow seats. Good lighting.

Beautiful inside and a great space to enjoy the arts! The acoustics were clear and seats were pretty comfortable.

Good event venue.

Acoustics and view presented a pleasant stage for the graduation exercise.

What a beautiful campus UCLA

Absolutely a beautiful hall. High ceilings, ample leg room (and Im 65 for reference),and lovely performances.

Amazingly large performance hall that is absolutely gorgeous and is perfect for listening to various musical performances.

I saw the Los Angeles ballet perform Swan Lake here. Ive seen a lot of great performers at Royce Hall through the years but it didnt work for the ballet that night. The stage was too small and the ballerinas to crammed. Add to that the fact there was no Orchestra but only pre-recorded music and you really should spend a little bit more money to see a Russian ballet in a larger setting. I would have thought it to be okay and worth the money if they had a real Orchestra given they would still look cramped on stage. Unless your idea of a ballet takes place inside of bus bumping around with people the next time they tour like I said spend a little more money and go see the Bolshoi or Kirov.

Hall is great, beautiful inside and quite comfortable. But parking is so convoluted. When paying at kiosk you must enter your license plate number. But this is not posted anywhere so you only realize it after you have parked and walked to kiosk. Also you can only pay cash, exact amount at the kiosk. UCLA hosts so many events its time to modernize their parking system.

Great Bruin day experience.

Most beautiful venue..Fill yourself with UCLA campus Parking very accessible to Building...love the experience

Amazing acoustics, comfortable seating, fantastic performances on offer

Pat Metheny was w/o a doubt 5 stars! Parking, venue, acoustics, lack of bathrooms, cramped seating, couldnt buy a water on way out, & no air circulation made this a 3. Arrive at least 1 1/2 hrs. early to park.

Musical performance by Gregory Porter

It is very beautiful venue with the older architecture & feeling of beauty

Great place to watch a show. Cant wait to go back. Intimate, clean, great sound. Yo Yo.

This is a WONDERFUL, intimate venue to see a show. Great acoustics, friendly staff. On the campus of UCLA, with plenty of parking.

Right at the centre of UCLA. Its one of the most beautiful buildings. People take lots of pictures in the outer corridor.
