Centennial Hall - University of AZ Concerts 2025

It is a great venue for concerts, shows, and lectures. Comfortable seating, pleasant staff, clean restrooms, and drinks and snacks available pre-show and during intermission. You can purchase tickets online or at the box office (opens around noon), which they send to your mobile device. They have a clear bag policy, so don't bring a large bag that you will need to return to your car to deposit. There are no lockers available for storage. Parking(paid) is plentiful at the Tyndall Street garage, which is a short walk.

Centennial Hall is a decent place to see shows. The lighting and other special effects are great. However, they really need to update their sound system. Since ticket prices have gone up I was hoping they’d invest in better equipment. It’s just hard to understand performers and people in the back have still paid plenty of money to see the shows. Even in floor seats, the sound is muttered together.

Enjoyed the student presentations at this event. Unfortunately, it was hard to hear the hosts and presenters. Would think a facility that hosts major shows would have a better sound system. Also, couldn't see straight on, was constantly having to look to left or right of the person in front of me.

We had seats in Orchestra C row F for the Nutcracker. It was a beautiful show but the seats were disappointing. We could only see half of the stage due to being sat behind large people. The people in front of us were taking pictures the whole time and that obstructed more of our view. Unfortunately we left half way through. I think the seating could be way better to avoid obstruction of views.

We saw the MJ Live show and it was fantastic. The troupe put on an amazing show. This is Tucson, not NYC or another big city so the venue is to be expected. Great staff and comfortable crowd. I like the new outdoor restrooms that are a step up from the old port a potties. My feedback would be to add another unit of 3 so that we could all get back to the show before it starts.
