Our very first time! Venue is safe very clean and a systematic way of getting in and out. Lots of vendors.. Inside is cashless. Parking is $25 cash or card
Considering this arena has been here since the damn of time, I would say that it's in good shape. Easy to navigate to get to your seats. We went to see Hot Wheels monster trucks & every seat was a good seat for the show.
My visit to Pechanga Arena was great. This is a good basic venue. It holds about 15,000 people. So the view is good and the parking is great. The building is over 50 years old. There are food service venues in a ring around the auditorium. I saw Cirque du Soleil here and the seating, sound, and lighting was great. It does lack the high-tech features and amenities of a new arena.
Went to a Rauw Alejandro concert recently, and it was good. However, the best part for me was when the Jabbawockeez came out and performed. We had decent seats, and lines to get in weren't too bad. The drinks were on the expensive side. Overall, it was a great experience. I did see a Monster Truck Show a while back and thought it was too small a venue for that. The kids liked it regardless.
The seat and stairs are very thight, parking its small, but for concerts has very good acoustics, we went for Evanescence and Muse concert and was great
Went for hot wheels monster trucks with the family a few months ago. Great time. Easy access from parking to venue. Tight parking and over priced snake and drinks to be expected. All around fun and great location. Not a bad seat in the building.
Standard arena. The AC units definitely work. It was pretty cold for the concert I saw. Cashless arena. Point of note if you need handicap parking. It's first come first serve and it's all in one spot, on one side. Also shared with employees. So, plan your seats wisely or you may have a long trek. But, get there early enough and you might catch the fireworks from SeaWorld. Was not happy about being forced to watch commercials between acts.
We have been to quite a few events at Pechenga Arena and always have a great time. The staff is always pleasant and very helpful. We went last night to see Muse (what a concert!). I purchased the Preferred Parking which is great. $80 and access in and out of the parking is quick and easy. Preferred Parking also comes with access to the Stella Artois Lounge and a "skip the line" pass (we joke because it says may not skip the bathroom or concessions lines).
The lounge is great, it is a nice, relaxing place to sit before and even during some of the show if you like. There is a full bar and a menu you can order food from and the amazing staff will bring it to you. There is also a set of restrooms inside the lounge and just outside (by the floor access). Last night we were even treated to some live pre-show music in the lounge. The only downside is I am not sure how accessible it is, lounge is down a large flight of stairs and I have not seen an elevator (but may be out of our site).
Acoustics in the arena are pretty good and the seating is decent. We were pretty close and my only issue is the section we were in seems to be mobile or on rollers so when people jump up and down, you can get a bit sea sick (it was awful when we took my daughter to see Shawn Mendes, too much movement). Other than that, love the venue! Really don't think there is a bad seat in the house.
