It's nice and covered but hard to see with the seat arrangements, the atmosphere is always fun but is very crowded, but overall not bad.

I went to Darien Lake to see concerts several times last year. It can be a fun and entertaining venue for an event, depending on the weather. The entire place (except for the "lawn seat area") is covered with a massive tent, which shields several thousand people from the elements. The only problem with this tent is that, if you... More

We went July 23rd to see Brad Paisley. We had lawn tickets. The email from Livenation said you could take lawn chairs and blankets, People were being told to take chairs and blankets back. When the concert started, I realized why...there was no way you were sitting unless you wanted to be stepped on! Paisley is popular so it was... More

We attended a concert and found the facility adequate. The concourse area was cramped but sufficient. The restrooms had plenty of stalls but not enough sinks. Our big gripe is the parking. Space was mo problem but getting out after the show was a real problem. No organization and no parking lot supervision... This won't be an easy place to... More

I understand that you have 14,000 people at the concert, but you really need to mark the parking lot BETTER!! We saw people looking for their cars, that couldn't figure out where they parked because nothing is marked!... More

Saw a Green Day show on 8/5/2010 and it kicked butt. They were on for 3 hours... Besides that, the Will Call setup is messed up. If you get the added theme park tickets it seems like people don't know what to do. After doing a lot of walking from the Will Call windows to the theme park's main gate,... More

Just returned from my first ( and most likely) last concert at the Darien Center PAC. The concert ( Nickelback) was great, albeit, could not see much from the lawn area. There were big screens but lost that sense of being at a " live" show. I was very disappointed in Live Nation however. After I paid full price for... More
