Old National Centre

We went for the R&B live event. Walking in the security is not too overwhelming. The ticket takers were very helpful and welcoming. The bartenders were great and had amazing customer service and people skills. The atmosphere was perfect for the event. They are ADA accommodating well. We did not eat any food.

I took my daughter here for Bluey's Big Show. We ended up having a good time, but initially, I was not happy. I purchased front row seats, for close to $150 each. When we arrived, we found out that she could not sit in her seat and see the stage. Not only was the state too tall for her to see properly, but there were speakers that were blocking the view of the whole left side of the stage! I asked the attendant working for a booster seat so my daughter could see. She said the front row seats were not equipped for the booster to sit on. I tried to sit her on my lap, she still couldn't see. Heck, as an adult that is 5'8", I couldn't see! Eventually, I allowed her to stand up in the seat so that she could see. Once that fiasco was figured out, we had a pretty good experience. The show was fun and interactive with the crowd. The show was definitely amazing, but I will never go to an event here again.

I had went here for the R&B live event and I was satisfied with the space. I like how security checks everyone before coming in to ensure safety. For this event I did the general admission and it was not bad at all. There was food and drinks for purchase and the prices were not bad at all. I would go back here for an event if I needed to.

Been here a few times for concerts! The bigger of the two in the Egyptian Room was GA and packed! It was hot and it was hard to move around to get to the back to get a drink or food. The other was in the basement! It's smaller more quaint and easier to get to the back for drinks and food. Now there is a sound quality difference too! Up stairs is way better and larger and cleaner sounding while the basement is more local band vibe and does have its fair share of clarity loss at the higher volumes!Prices are pretty good for a Live Nation venue and parking too!

Our final planned event for this year and this was my first visit to Old National. We were here to watch The Nutcracker ballet. We hadn't paid for parking when we bought our tickets but the church across the road offered parking for a cheaper price. Our seats were in the 4th row and on the left of the stage which were good seats though we all agreed next time, we'd choose balcony seats. We didn't get any of the drinks or popcorn on offer as we had lunch before the ballet.The staff were all helpful and friendly and they allowed our friend who had arrived earlier to wait inside until we arrived with the tickets. The ballet itself was fantastic and an amazing performance.

So far, I've only visited Old National Centre to see plays. I saw Hamilton and Hairspray here on two different occasions, and it was a great experience. A couple of things to know:1. Drinks and snacks are hella expensive. If you have time before your play or show starts, go across the street and get drinks and a bite at Salt on Mass. You'll pay the same for food and drink that's 100x better. But if that's not an option, and you do get an adult beverage at Old Nation Centre, you can get it in a cool adult sippy cup-type cup with a lid.2. The bathrooms are located downstairs. I've always opted to peace-out about five or 10 minutes before intermission to visit the loo before everyone else, because it's more important to me to not wait in line for the bathroom than it is to see that five minutes of singing or whatever before intermission. They have TVs showing the performance in the lobby, so you can see what's going on and not miss out too much.3. Make sure you don't bring pepper spray into the theatre, because they will either make you throw it away, take it back to your car, or pay $2 to stow it. (Ask me how I know.)Those are all of my numbered tips. Other things to know: It's not too hard to find your seat because the theatre is laid out pretty clearly, but there are lots of people around to help you find your seat or direct you to the restroom or to the exits. Also, the theatre is beautiful and old, and there are art deco details all throughout, which makes your visit feel extra indulgent and fancy.

Decided to grab dinner at the venue to save time. Tried to research ahead to see what would be offered but couldn't find any information online. Arrived to find a very limited "menu." We shared an overpriced but under-cooked pizza (slice), chicken fingers, and a single can of water for $30. Definitely won't make this mistake again.

We've seen several Broadway shows here. The women's restroom lines are always out of control, but they have ushers directing traffic. Be sure to check the rules for what you can bring in for your particular show. Food and drink is very meh and overpriced.

The staff is very helpful and friendly - I sort of didn't know where I was going! I loved the Polyphia show that was here! I did not purchase anything but the smell of popcorn was very enticing! It's beautiful and you can tell it has a lot of history!

Cool venue for intimate concerts. The Egyptian Room is where I went and it was a nice area with cool decor and tables to sit at on raised platforms along the walls.
