Salem Civic Center Concerts 2026-2027

We saw the rodeo - overall it was fun. The parking is easy and adequate. There is no mistaking that this is a very old venue. The seats are extremely close left-right and front-back. The steps are steep, very challenging to navigate. We would go back under the right circumstances and seat availability.

Have been here for several events (2 graduations, a rodeo, gun show, home show, most recently R. Springfield/REO Speedwagon concert) If you don't mind the clear bag restrictions, it's a great experience. Clean bathrooms, standard American concession food. Parking behind the building is easier and that's where the tour bus of whatever band you're seeing parks, too.

Staff was incredibly kind and polite. Pretty clean and getting in and seated was simple. Some issues with nonfunctional concessions and not enough bathrooms, but those were minor. As a music venue it rocked!

Decent size to watch a concert. Easy to get in and out. Friendly staff. Seats are pretty uncomfortable, it's more comfortable standing.

We saw the Roanoke symphony orchestras Queen, we will rock you last night. Great show and fun time!! The only thing is that the seats there are very uncomfortable, small and very low. A lot of senior people were there and a lot of aches and pains to get up and down from the seats. Me being one of them. I think it's time for a renovation!!!
