Heinz Hall For the Performing Arts

Heinz Hall is a superb venue. It's absolutely gorgeous and they keep it up really nice. It's a reminder of simpler days with opulent decorations. Every year, we love coming to the holiday pops and any other special events that sound great. We have been coming since Marvin Hamlish was leading the symphony. The symphony is world class and always sounds amazing. The Mendelssohn Choir always puts on a great show too. We also love the guest singers and guest conductors. It was also nice to see the talented members of the Pittsburgh Ballet. Everyone was so talented. Santa always makes it special for the kids. The song a long is our favorite part. The concert puts us in the holiday spirit. We love seeing what who is appearing every season. It's always a fun night out. Everyone at the theater is always very friendly and helpful.

I've been here many times but most recently was to see the cinematic masterpiece "A Muppet Christmas Carol" set to a live symphony.This venue is stunning! There is ample parking all around. The space is gorgeous and immaculate. The staff are so friendly and helpful

Had fun watching the Holiday Pop show. The symphony music was fabulous. The show was very entertaining with the conductor's personality, Santa Clause, Chanukah songs, choral group, solos. A great mix of unique activities.I don't think this was my first time here at Heinz Hall, and it certainly won't be my last :).

Absolutely stunning venue for all kinds of events. Tonight, I'm here for Price is Right Live and it's definitely fancier than pretty much everyone here but it doesn't matter. There's not a bad seat either. Conveniently located in the Theatre District, there are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby for before/after the show.

This place is beautiful and the staff was friendly. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because their website said they had snacks and my son was looking forward to it but they don't serve snacks for all performances. They did have juice though (and possibly a full bar).

Heinz Hall is a beautiful venue. I went to a combo performance of the Pittsburgh Ballet and Pittsburgh Symphony. I remember back in high school going with my mother and a famous actress that was in the musical we went to see said in an interview article that she liked performing at the Heinz Hall as she compared it to a jewel box. All the staircases reminds me of the Hogwarts Castle from Harry Potter. The outdoor terrace is a fun place to sit and relax at intermission or before the performance begins. The interior could probably use a little freshening up but it is still very nice. The acoustics are excellent. For those that like a cocktail there are plenty of bars. Pittsburgh should be very proud of this unique venue. The ceiling alone is mesmerizing.

The sound quality is Super B! The pretty lights were heavenly to stare at. Thanks to Pittsburgh Radical Days, I had a free ticket admission to witness Pittsburgh Symphony performed and conducted by Moon Doh. The way they played was smooth as butter I suggested parking in Smithfield garage. It's a few minutes away from the Hall and cost for me to park $6 for couple hours. Other parkings lot are pricey $10+ during events and plus street parking usually is filled in the evening!

The lobby space is absolutely beautiful, while the entertainment space is a bit outdated in my opinion. The seating is comfortable with good viewing. We reserved event parking for $15 which was an easy process.

Beautiful, just beautiful! I can not believe the architecture of this building. When you step through the front doors of Heinz Hall, it's like you take a step back in time.We have been here for several shows, and all have been unreal. Recently, The Beatles Tribute (6 stars) which I can not describe how wonderful the band played, and what a great job hey did on the visual effects. Secondly. The Illusionists, Magic of the Holiday's (4 stars) which was great, but I felt a little out of touch way up on the top balcony - like others mentioned, it's difficult to see certain things from far away. Magic shows are maybe meant to see up close? Still, both were spectacular performances! There are overpriced snacks for purchase, and alcohol as well. No alcoholic drinks are permitted in the theater unless you purchase a souvenir cup.

We've been to the Heinz twice. Once to see Jason Mraz, and the other to see The Illusionists. I Enjoy the inside of the building. It has two levels with assigned seating. The bathrooms are very well taken care of and clean. The staff are very polite and helpful in helping you find your seating. There is a concession stand but we've never partaken due to usually having just had dinner or being on our way to dinner. Either way, I would definitely continue to purchase tickets to see my favorite artists perform or see other types of shows.
