ARTPARK Concerts

We've gone to Artpark many times over the years, especially for the outdoor concerts and events at the top of the hill. It's an awesome venue, being right at the end of the gorge, and often having a cooling breeze off the river on a hot afternoon/evening. I know that they still do art classes and camps, but I have no feedback on that. The land that Artpark is situated on is rich with archaeological and historic sites, wilderness and conservation hikes (and it's at the end of the Lower Gorge trail), picnic areas, a dog park, a drone launching area, and interactive art installations for people to enjoy when they aren't there for a performance. While the main entrance is on 4th Street, the entrance for the upper park area is on Portage (this is where the dog park is). While it's usually free to enter, when there's a performance, you're likely to have to pay for parking.

STYX was great and I like the venue, but having only 2 access points makes it VERY difficult to get inside the venue in an efficient and timely manner. It is ridiculous, in fact. Especially if there is a large crowd such as there was for the recent STYX concert. The venue is also understaffed for large events....may be every where is.

As the final chords of "Right Here Waiting" filled the venue, there was a collective sense of gratitude for witnessing a music legend in his element. Richard Marx's concert was not just a show; it was a cathartic journey through his timeless catalog, leaving everyone with lasting memories and a renewed appreciation for his artistry.

Beautiful venue, lots of places to sit and still see the stage and hear the music, depending on how close you wanted to be to the stage. Parking was easy and there was lots of places to park. Definitely will come back for more shows

This is a lovely venue. Comfortable seating. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable with any questions I had. The acoustics were good. Women's restroom was average...long lines. It was a little cold inside but I don't know if that was because it opens in the back to the lawn seating and it was only about 50 degrees last night. I would definitely go to another event here.
