First time at Sumtur Amphitheater located in Papillion off of Highway 370 near Papillon South High School. Not the largest amphitheater I have ever been to, but still pretty nice. Good looking venue and all the seats give a good view of the stage area. You can reserve seats in advance or go with general admission which is more inexpensive and sit with your chairs and blankets in a good sized grassy area behind the main seats. The angle from the grass gives those viewers a decent view of the stage as well. No outside food or beverage allowed, but there is a concession stand inside the venue. A gem of a facility a little off the beaten track. Definitely worth a try.

This is my favorite venue to see bands, but if you don't like outdoors or sitting on a lawn, its not for you. You do have the option of purchasing seats in the front, though.I saw Twenty-One Pilots here in the pouring rain and the concert became legendary from all the bad weather. The roads leading up to Sumtur were TERRIBLE. There's tons of construction going on and the closest anyone could park was like 3-5 blocks away. Had to run through mud and rock roads to get back to the car.

I saw Third Eye Blind and Dashboard Confessional here and was super impressed by this location. Normally parking at concert venues is kind of a pain but they opened up the lot next door at Papillion South High School for free and shuttled people to and from the parking lot which was super nice. When we walked up to the front a few of the security guards were offering extra bug spray to people that didn't have any which was just another small touch that made the venue seem really friendly. Lots of times venues heard people like cattle but at Sumtur they were accommodating and thoughtful. The best and most impressive part was the venue itself. In the fifth row, I was stunned by how clear of a view to the stage I had and how clean and well kept the place was. I was at eye level with the bands which was amazing. The seats were by far the best I've had at a venue for a really reasonable price. Also, the bathrooms were awesome. Short lines and super clean. OH OH OH AND they serve a really kick ass craft beer. Would definitely go to another show here.

The facility is a small venue. They do have concession stands and public restrooms. The facility was clean and seems like it would be a place I would want to return in the future

For the past two years I have attended the Omaha Blues Ed final show here. And each year the band Dilemma has been the best. They have an extraordinarily talented drummer and he kind of carries the group.The sound is great. The show goes off on time. Best road crew that money can buy!And thanks to the Papio-Missouri NRD for purchasing the land for this venue and Walnut Creek. Special thanks to former director David D, Begley for standing firm on the second vote to buy the real estate. If Begley would have switched his vote, there would be no Walnut Creek or Sumtur today.

I was here less than a week ago for a twenty one pilots concert. It was raining that night and the concert was amazing, a moment hard to forget. The location is very small which I look at as good and bad. Good because you seem to be pretty close even when your far away ( we got seats, yay! ) but it just seems pretty close to stage even if your far back in the grass. Bad because since its so small when it's jam packed I get a bit clostraphobic from too many people and not enough walking space. It is located right next to a school, a bunch of corn fields and a little neighborhood. The type of surroundings I'm use to, but odd for a venue to be placed. Not a lot of parking but luckily we came early and got a good spot in the parking lot. Leaving was a pain, long lines which is expected but how it's set up leaves a lot of people trapped in their parking space.I don't frequent concerts, being a bit of an introvert and getting clostraphobic easily. I know.. I'm weird. :p But this concert may change that for me. I really had a blast and it wasn't too overwhelming for me. The venue is small, easy to figure out where to go and what to do. It made me not feel so clueless. Not very many tents to buy merch or beer. I forgot my wallet in the car anyways.. Oops! Don't forget anything before you get in line because once your inside you cannot re-enter. Next time I will remember because after a while of jumping up and down you need a drink in your life! Lol.

Giving this venue 3 stars. The facility is nice but the night we went the line was around the block for both entrances. They were screening people harder than they do at the airport. At the time the concert started there were still people in line. I would have been very frustrated had I paid more than $60 for a concert and missed part of it bc of security. In addition, it was so hot that one person suffered heat exhaustion and EMTs were called out. My only other complaint is that the sound crew was set up right in the front middle of the lawn area which makes the entire area behind it unusable because your view is completely obstructed. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Other than that, food and alcoholic drinks are available for purchase. Seemed reasonable for a concert venue and those lines moved quickly. You can bring chairs and we brought a blanket to sit onus you're GA. If you're going in the dead of summer you might want to bring an umbrella for shade too -- at least until the sun goes down.

General admission on the grass is fine but sitting in the reserved seats closer to the stage is dynamite! Tons of leg and elbow room. The red lager was pricey at $7 but delicious.

Very nice small venue. Be sure to bring chairs for the lawn seating. Food and beer were good and nicely priced, not outrageous like other venues. I hope to see more shows here, really a gem.
