Reilly Arts Center Concerts 2024-2025

This is the first time I went here in Ocala Florida, and we saw a laser show. I was very impressed how the theater was set up as there was no bad seats in the house. I can’t wait to go to my next concert there.

A great update of an older civic auditorium. Nice lighting and sound system for music concerts and events. A large and convenient lighted and paved parking area. Several conveniently located restrooms are very clean and well stocked. A bar area with light snacks is available. Had a great time.

We attended a rock concert and found the venue to be user-friendly and the seats to be comfortable. There are plenty of parking options which was nice and it is free! I am looking forward to the next opportunity to enjoy music of my generation.

I have many concerts here at the Reilly Arts Center and every show is outstanding!! The tribute bands sound much better than the regular band they are covering. I always have so much fun every time I come to the Reilly.

This is my second time attending a concert here. The first time was wonderful, but I was about 7 rows back from center stage. Last night I thought I'd try the balcony. What a MISTAKE. Even though I was only 3 rows back from the rail, all I could see was the guy's head in front of me. That's because the seats in the balcony are not staggered. The person in front of you absolutely blocks your view of the stage. BTW, the seats in Orchestra are staggered, so there's reduced obstruction. Furthermore, the seats in Orchestra are roomy enough to cross your leg. The Balcony seats are so cramped you sit in a "Lincoln" pose for the entire concert. Thank Odin for the one break where you can stand and stretch. I was hurtin'. There was no way to cross your leg much less even MOVE. One final issue: Theater management must be required to keep the overhead lights on after the performance begins to assist latecomers staggering in to their seats. They kept the lights on for 15 minutes, albeit at a reduced intensity. Still, the overhead, white LED lights overhead were painfully glaring. And if you're in the Balcony, it feels like you're getting sunburned. The gentleman who led me to my seat said he preferred the Balcony. "Best seats in the house," he said. Yeah! If you can sit in the row next to the rail. I will not make the Balcony mistake again, believe me. That was uncomfortable.
