Saw Ghost at this venue last night. Perfect performance. Lighting and Sound we are amazing.

Very awesome venue, The Hip hop nutcracker was epic and kurtis blow was a great surprise

I was here for the car show. The cars were very nice except some were lower end models. The luxury car and truck section had nicer higher end models. Overall a good experience.

Great stuff, very organized the place looks clean and up to date. Love every show.

Very easy to get to, get in and have great seat for a great concert. The venue is very easily adequate for music, theater and other performances. Sound is very inviting, even though I wear noise reducing plugs. Not positively sure, but I think you can see the stage from everywhere.

The seats are pretty awesome, and there isnt a bad view. They mattered the height so no one is in your way. There seats for a little uncomfortable towards the end, but there wasnt an intermission at the show I was at, so that may have played a part. My one suggestion is to stop selling concessions that have crinkly packaging. Someone behind us are several bags of chips the whole time.

Syracuse Opera at its finest! Packed House. Charismatic conductor. Sweet sounding soprano! Join us

Saw Collective Soul here, great venue, easy in and out, they had adult beverages as well. Great time.

Another Broadway show A bronx tale was in town and just a phenomenal production. Everyone does such a great job and every role is important. Not to mention the show itself was wonderful too, but the staff at the venue are really great people.

Great acoustics, street parking, event parking lot before your gps says you have arrived. Comfortable seats.

Saw Jeff Dunham here 3/14/19. Floor seats, they had us packed in like sardines, greedy to get the few extra expensive seats in, rather than the audience being comfortable. It was ridiculous how packed in we were. Surrounded by large people who took up my share of MY seat. Smh. Would be better off not on floor, thought I was doing a special thing paying more for these seats.

Their audio was muffled and low. You couldnt understand a good percentage words. The sound board guy didnt know how to level mics as the interviewer (after the movie) was considerably quieter than the guest. Also, the guests mic was broken and was never repaired through the hour long interview.

This was an awesome experience. We were truck drivers for Criss Angel and his staff. Want to thank everyone who helped us with showers, and laundry. Your staff were courteous and helpful. Loved doing this tour. Great show. Dont miss this experience.

Great Venue! Efficiently run by helpful staff. Always a breathtaking experience at a Celtic Woman show!!!

Such a beautiful place, we had a wonderful evening at the theater. Bravo to the designers who made sure there were ample leg rooms!!!

We attended a Concert by Manheim Steamroller. We had Orchestra seats in the center of Row S. The view and acoustics were great. The seats were comfortable and ushers attentive.

Only complaint I had was nowhere to sit and regroup outside the meeting rooms themselves between workshops. Otherwise, very pleasant and accessible venue. My first visit to downtown SYR, and I liked it.

Enjoyed the show, things could have been better organized from the theater point of view. Signage, flow could be improved.

This place is great, staff is super nice and helpful. Shows Ive seen here have been fun!

Had a great time!

I have seen two concerts at this venue; Alice Cooper and Dream Theater. Comfortable seating, well spaced concessions, slightly lacking on audio quality as far as theatres go, but much better than an arena or amphitheater.

Symphoria is great, but trying to figure out what each venue is near impossible, wish they took the time to be more descriptive as to what is going on and what is being played during each show. Vagueness in the description hurts them. Ordering is okay.

Some of the food was really good... like anything bang bang shrimp was awesome. The lobster special was overrated. The lobster tale was really small. It looked big and the presentation was pretty but that was about it. However, I wanna get everything else on the menu. The ppl at my table had a nice assortment of foods and only the lobster tail was so so.Will definitely go back tho....the service was amazing. The waiters were quick and courteous and had little to no problem dividing out our huge bill.Fun. Yummy. Good experience

Absolutely amazing performance. Every time I go there I am totally blown away. Conductor OLoughlin is amazing and the orchestra is right on with their talents. Highly recommend.

Great place and lots to do here. Staff was very helpful!

Small, intimate venue without a bad seat in the house. Enjoyed Mannheim Steamroller from the 5th row Sunday night.

ZZ TOP 50 ANNIVERSARY TOUR

Had a great time. Was my first time visiting. Looking forward to further experiences.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Seating area was well taken care of and facilities were clean.

Nice place to take the kids especially when they have hockey games and cartoon musicals and wrestling. So cool me and my family love going downtown when they have events. Nice atmosphere.

Went to my first ballet last night and saw the Moscow Ballet Nutcracker and was totally blown away. The professional dancers were absolutely brilliant and the local dancers, including the young children, were very talented and entertaining. How proud their parents must be. Yes there were a few mistakes but that just adds to the excitement of a live show. The costumes were amazing and the sets were beautiful although I was a little disappointed there wasnt a live orchestra. There were some negative aspects that took away from the experience number one being the venue. Onadaga County should be embarrassed. The seats were some of the most uncomfortable ones I have ever sat in plus they were jammed together worse than airplane seats and the theater appears to be a work in progress that will never be completed. Other than that and listening to the man behind us crinkle his peanut bag and the woman next to him continually complaining about the music not being correct it was a fantastic performance.

Loved the theater! My seat was comfortable and clean. But the room was freezing. But, I loved the show very much!

I just go for the RetroGameCon each fall. Lots of space but lacking good vendors recently.

Massive facility. Great air conditioning. Plenty of facilities and conference rooms throughout.

If you like Hockey, SYRACUSE NY has their own team!! Located directly in Downtown SYRACUSE NY!! Come on down, bring The family, friends, girlfriend, etc. And have a great time!!

Easy in, great concert venue, easy out

Attended Menopause, the Musical on 11/8/18. Sold out single performance. Plenty of parking within a reasonable walking distance. Well organized. Courteous and helpful staff. Adequate number of restrooms. Handicap accessible.

Its time to update the seating, its like a high school auditorium. if the movie tavern can give you plush seating for $15 I think we deserve better than a faux velvet covered wooden plank for $100. not to mention every time someone needs to take a leak they have to crawl over every person between them and the aisle. the show was great but the seating is garbage. If the tickets were $10 Id sit on the floor and say thank you but thats not the case

We saw Mannheim Steamroller. Very nice experience!

Great Place for a Dance Competition !!!

Beautiful venue. Good snacks. Clean bathrooms. Helpful staff.

Been going here for SAI Region 16 Competition every year for the past 12 years. Wonderful place to hold our venue. Sadly this was our last year and you will truly will be missed..

Great venue and great acoustic sounds. Seating is also awesome with the balcony and mezzanine.

My daughter and I had a great time at the show.

Nice facility that is well kept. It makes a great venue for a variety of events. We were there for the West Genesee kalidoscope concert. Staff was very friendly.

It was my first time going there and the layout was very straight forward. The staff was very nice and helpful. The theatre was much larger than I thought it would be from the outside... Whoever designed it knew what they were doing!I could hear everything on stage (though we were watching a movie and it could have been equalized better).

Incredibly long lineups for food and booze. Wish they had a coat check.

Great location for shows, not a bad seat in the house.

I attended the Moscow Ballets Nutcracker in 2018.The dance troop was wonderful. However the parking offered for the venue was quite a walk from the center esp in December weather, dressed up, and the advertised enclosed cross-walk to get into the adjasent building to make the treck indoors was locked. The theater itself was the most austere I have ever seen and reminds one of a parking garage. The stage is too small for the poor dancers who can barely complete two leaps without practically landing in the audience. That or they must do them in short bursts making the moves look less graceful and choppy. The worst part of the evening was not the cold cramped seating but the abomination the management aparently feels passes as a sound system. It was horrid and I felt so bad for the troop up there giving it their all while we cowered from the noise with ALL the sound coming from above center stage and blaring at you from wasted speakers. I could see their looks of dismay as to our lack of reaction to their eforts, but it was not them that dissapointed...it was the god awful sound sysem! No effort what-so-ever to achieve a more humane and professional stereo or surround sound effect by distributing the sound around the theater was made. It was our first Nutcracker and unless they do something about this theater/auditorium, it will be our last in Syracuse for I will travel elsewhere to a better managed venue to see shows of this nature from now on rather than endure this again. If I were the Ballet I would pass Syracuse up rather than insult my troop by performing on that pathetic stage. In fact the buildings entrance or a college gym would have been an improvement in all regards sad to say.

Beautiful venue with great views of the stage no matter where youre sitting. Seats are comfortable and the staff is very helpful. I would avoid slippery bottom shoes since the walkways leading to the orchestra level seats are sloped fairly steep.

Great place! We sat in one of the boxes for the show. It was a great view and the seats were comfortable. They had drinks (sodas, beer, wine, and mixed drinks), popcorn, and candy available. Im not sure if that was just because we were viewing a movie or if that is something they always offer.

Gabriel iglesias is the funniest guy on earth. Great show but needs better seats at the oncenter

Great place to catch a hockey game.

Took my 2 Year old son to see Sesame Street Live. Small, Clean, and Well laid out theater. It was perfect because I didnt get lost lol. The show was awesome, staff were really nice. I noticed they had Stroller Courtesy Services, as well as wheelchair Courtesy Services. I was able to get picked up right in front of the theater despite the big trucks taking up the small block. Im not sure about parking as I took an Uber that day. However it looks like parking would be limited, I do know they have a Parking lot, not really sure of the size. All and all I would go back for another show.

The bathrooms leave a lot to be desired. The seats could use cupholders. Good views though.

We had a great time at the car show. The difficulty of being an out of towner and lack of signage was frustrating, especially in the cold weather. Staff was very polite and helpful once we did find the right place. This venue is very large and clean, even the bathrooms.

Very nice place. They do need a center aisle tho.

Good place to get entertained but to pricey for me.

Nice venue, easy to find. Seats a little tight for larger guests

Intimate theater, but raw concrete really detracts.

Great performance, seats are hard to get to when you are seated in the middle. The seats are far apart so its not to bad for tall people

I love coming here for events. Always very clean and the seats are very comfortable.

The acoustics were terrible and my wife was devastated as this was a present from her to see and hear ZZ Top. And the box seats were expensive. You couldnt hear the vocals at all. A heartbreaking dissapointment as they are my favorite band of all time

Great place to see a show or the opera.

They have had some great shows here but weve been three times in a few months and were disappointed each time. We were at a movie screening and the screen they use is way too small for the size of the venue, imagine watching tv from your backyard (also, the interviewer was awful but I dont know how much I can blame the venue for that guy.) Then, at the rock show we went to, the sound was horrible from the mezzanine boxes! In addition, I purchased all four of the seats in this box only to have them add two more which was absolutely not the point. If there had been six seats in that box when the tickets went on sale I would have bought all six. Lastly, I went to Laser Floyd (a laser light show set to the music of Pink Floyd). Again we bought particular seats with a purpose in mind only to have them shut down the mezzanine. They gave the excuse that, there are lasers up there so we cant have people in those seats. The truth, however, was that they didnt sell enough tickets to the show so they didnt want to open, and in turn clean the mezzanine. Dont lie to me, Im not naive. Overall I dont know that I will go to another show here without a real compelling reason.

Nice venue for the concert. $$$$ snacks and soda.

We went to see Kevin James at the Oncenter Theater and they added a whole new section in front of us! We had purchased third row center tickets and they added an orchestra pit series of seats (aa,bb,cc, and etc.) We were off to the side and like 15 plus rows back. I specifically picked seats with seating chart so I knew exactly where they were supposed to be. Textbook bait and switch!! What a scummy practice to pass off. I purchased these back in February and am highly dissatisfied. No real way to complain either. What scumbags.....

These stagehands are so lazy. They sit around doing nothing and causing issues for there clients. These Union stagehands are why the stagehand union wont last. Just milking the clock and unnecessarily costing small theater groups tons of money. All the other unions get bad names from these people. There are only two guys working really. Everybody else is just sitting around trying to get paid for nothing.

Seen a few concerts and musicals here. Acoustic are good. I like sitting in the balconies on the sides. More room, dont have to bother anyone to use the bathroom. Staff is very helpful. Long bathroom lines and food lines.

Was there for the car and truck show. Plenty of staff to help you from getting lost. Had a great time and always impressed at how big this place is.

Great venue. Comfortable seats

Great to see an amazing magician at the oncenter

Great place to go and watch a film. I saw Say Anything and after John Cusack came out and was interviewed. He also did a question and answer session with the audience. It was a very pleasant experience.

I like every thing but the small small seats that we have to sit in. It really is inhumane to pack us in here. Show was great. My back is killing me.

Always good, not a bad seat in the place. I have sat in the first row to the very last row at the top. The mezzanine is the best, the box seats are meh.

Louise Pennys brilliant, entertaining and insightful presence was the crowning jewel of the Rosamond Gifford Lecture SeriesThe 6 woman I attended with would concur. Barbara Updike

Nice theater.The seats are nice. Theyre sloped so everyone can see the stage. Comfortable with plenty of cushioning.The stage is big and open to for all sorts of performances and events. The lighting is good. The sound Im not sure about. I think the performers brought in their own sound system but I dont know for sure. There were definitely speakers on the sides of the stage when Ive gone.Overall its a great venue with multiple levels and comfy seats.

Went and saw Lord of Dance. Awesome show. The Oncenter was easy to find, plenty of parking within aWalking distance. Great night

My partner and I saw Beethovens 9th Symphony and it was simply amazing.

The venue was terrible. And the security guards were very rude. I went here for a concert and Ive never experienced anything like it. The concert itself was good but the venue was just terrible.

Not a bad seat in the house!

Venue was very well layed out. Seeting in the back was hard to see the performers but the filming and screen projection was awsome. Parking is some what of a concern, should have a parking garage for the venue. Performance was great no complaints.

I love the Nutcracker play of Ballet

Wonderful place to see a performance!

The Catholic Womens Conference was amazing, the speakers were very interesting and had so much great information to take away from their talks. Great vendors, great people. Will be going back next year. Wonderful place to have this event, great food provide by the Oncenter team as well!!

Its a decent place but tight for cheif show

Attended a two day convention here, loved the set up, the building was clean and easy to navigate, the bathrooms in the bottom level are FANCY. They have a sitting room, couches, a variety of mirrors in different sizes and shapes. The outside was surprisingly well maintained too!

The Civic center not only housing a theater and an indoor basketball and skating ring also houses on the county government. It takes up about two square blocks

It was strictly a childrens event and they served beer . Completely discusted with that fact.

I was front row, center to see John Cleese. The seats were nice and comfortable. The support staff was friendly and helpful. Everything was wheelchair accessible. I would definitely attend another event at this venue. My only complaint is that th Oncenter owns three buildings all next to each other. As a person unfamiliar with the venue and the area, I found myself and at least five other couples having to check the doors of two buildings before locating the site. This one issue will not affect my rating. I was very happy once I got inside.

It was polite staff and amazing shows ... Went for my father WWE its a amazing been before for crunch game as well..!!!

We enjoy the oncenter! Wish parking made more sense but its easier than landmark to find parking nearby.

Nice place and seats had enough leg room for me at 64. I sat in the balcony section on one of the sides and it was a little hard to hear.

I saw Alice Cooper here, it was my first time at this theatre. Its a little dated could do with a fresh coat of paint and some fresh air running through itBut the accoustics were really great !!The size was big enough for the show and small enough to have a great view

Syracuse and the OnCenter did a great job with the Syracuse Half-Marathon. Great state, events, sound system, catering... Was great.

Wonderful performance of Aladdin by the Syracuse City Ballet! Beautiful costumes and sets staged in a first class venue. The dancers were excellent! Very enjoyable.

My wife and I saw Shinedown, Five Finger Death punch, Six A.m. .. Had a great time .. Would go again if given the reason.

Quaint little theater. All seats are good.

Celtic Woman was amazing (again). I always like seeing shows at this venue.

Great food and easy to get too.
