    My son and I enjoyed a matinee at the Bass this past weekend. I thought theatre was a thing of the past when moving to TX so I'm extremely appreciative for the offering at Bass Performance Hall. We hadn't seen Shucked before and I knew it'd be the funny light hearted silly type of humor we'd enjoy together since we love laughing. We had a great time. My son wasn't originally planning on attending but his flight was delayed by 9 hours, and the box office provided exceptional service when I needed another ticket upon arrival. While the production runs are pretty short it's so special to have the opportunity to catch the touring shows. We valeted the car and pre ordered ice-cream for intermission. If you live nearby this is a no brainer and even from a good drive over I'm still considering several other shows. The performance hall is very lovely, plush seats, lots of nice options for snacks and drinks. Bring a sweater because it can get a little chilly but perfect escape for whatever weather TX is throwing at you. Every individual from valet, to box office, ushers and more provided such great service. We throughly enjoyed ourselves. Looking forward to returning and making more of a day of it while in the Fort Worth area.

    The Bass Hall is such a an elegant theater! I attended Black Violin (great performance, btw!) and it couldn't have taken place at a better venue. The Bass Hall is extremely well maintained, the facilities are super clean and the staff is so professional and helpful! Literally at each turn, a staff member was there to assist you with a seat escort or any questions. So glad Fort Worth has this gem!

    This is such a great venue to see Broadway plays, the symphony, etc. Every seat has a great view. It's both beautiful and well maintained. The staff is very friendly, if sometimes pushy (we know where are seats are and don't always need to be shown). There is easy access to purchase drinks throughout the venue so the lines don't get very long, which is great. Love coming here!

    I saw the Nutcracker by Texas Ballet Theater at Bass Performance Hall. The performance itself was fun and wonderful, but I am surprised about the decision to not perform it to live orchestral accompaniment. For the price of the ticket, I would have expected it. That aside, 5 stars to the venue and 5 stars for nearby parking at 777 Main Garage (conveniently at 601 Commerce St.), which is free on Saturday night. We arrived at 6pm for our 8pm show. That gave us plenty of time to park in free parking, eat dinner, and get to our seats with 30 mins to spare. Security at Bass was efficient. It took all of 3 mins at entrance 45 mins to showtime.

    This is an outstanding venue - from the moment the hall appears in sight - to the moment the senses are exposed to the exquisite sounds and textures of the acoustical masterpiece of Bass Hall - you will enjoy and want to come back again and again! This is just what we have done for years! So many special memories and occasions, concerts and performances - the mind can barely comprehend! Thanks Bass Hall & wondered DT Fort Worth for helping make this such a wonderful part of our lives!

    Bass Hall is a beautiful venue in Fort Worth. They have a variety of touring Broadway shows coming throughout the year. I saw Beetlejuice here and was so impressed with the theatre. Security gets you in quickly and there are plenty of ushers available to help you find your seats. The seats were very comfortable, so I had no problem sitting and enjoying the view of the beautiful theatre while waiting for the show to start. We used valet parking on our visit which was $21 (card or cash accepted). Our car was ready quickly and it was nice not having to deal with a parking garage. Overall, I had a great experience at Bass Hall and look forward to coming again soon.

    Yunchan Lim was mesmerizing as he played the piano. I feel I witnessed one of the best skillful pianists at the tender age of 18. He was dazzling, made you forget everything around you by pulling you into his musical world. The acoustics at Bass Hall were amazing. It was easy to find, parking was across the street & there is no bad seat.

    Bass Hall is the place fhat a good number of touring Broadway shows land when coming to the Ft Worth area. A good rule of thumb is if a newer show hits Dallas & your either unable or unwilling to make it where their major Broadway theater is, give it the next year and it should be at Bass Hall. I.E. Beetlejuice and Moulin Rouge was just part of Dallas' 2023-2024 season, and they were announced part of Bass Halls 2024-2025 season. They are also home to the orchestra, opera, there are ballet performances and the occasional other show like Lyle Lovett. Bass hall is lucky located to where there is free parking garages after 6pm on weeknights and I believe free on the weekends as well. There is a Texrail and TRE spot walking distance. Plus, there is some food options nearby if you give yourself enough time before or after a show. Though they are strict about no outside food or drink at Bass hall, so keep that in mind if you eat before hand and tend to have leftovers you want to hold on too.

    Unfortunately, when I purchased my tickets, I thought I was purchasing through Bass Hall. I ended up purchasing my tickets for Mamma Mia through Vivid Seats. I am told through Vivid Seats that Bass Hall never released the tickets to them in order to complete my order. Today, July 20, 2024. Is the day That I was supposed to celebrate my birthday with a couple of girlfriends, one that flew in from Florida, and I have no tickets. Vivid Seats is saying the office that deals with Bass Hall is closed on the weekends and unfortunately, I'm just out of luck. Be careful with whom you deal with when you're booking your tickets, just pay attention. I purchased tickets on April 6, 2024.

    The performance I attended here was Chicago! It was a beautifully performed and the building was absolutely breathtaking! The seats were perfect and amazingly there was little or no traffic. The parking was easy to find and the venue space is unforgettable! Although I do not know Fort Worth well I could have considered it a home away from home. This place rivals the performance hall in Dallas. Looking forward for a new opportunity to visit again! Amazing to let someone else drive to this big city.

    I came here to see The Lion King musical. It was amazing. I booked valet parking in advance but it looked like you could also pay for valet when you arrived. There were extremely long lines to get in but they moved very quickly. As you enter you ticket(s) will be scanned and if you are carrying a bag it will be searched. If you are confused about where your seats are there are plenty of people around to send you in the right directions. I was seating in a box seat so there was a specific waiting area upstairs where there is a small bar where you can purchase drinks and snacks. If you haven't had a chance to visit bass performance hall you certainly should.

    AMAZING. Saw the Texas Ballet Theater perform the Nutcracker. It was amazing. The hall itself was beautiful and all the staff were super friendly and helpful

    The Bass Hall never ceases to amaze me. It is hands down one of the most beautiful buildings in Fort Worth. We came to the Bass Hall on a Friday evening to watch SIX. We had never heard of this musical but walked out LOVING it. We have already seen Frozen and To Kill a Mockingbird as part of their Broadway set this season and enjoyed both. There really isn't a bad seat at this theater. When we walked inside, we saw the entire first floor had tables throughout that were decorated beautifully with a lot of Christmas decorations that were for sale. The staff working there is always incredibly helpful in guiding you to where your seats are and the drinks and snack bar lines always move fairly quickly. I am definitely looking forward to our next visit to the Bass Hall to watch Aladdin!! If you've never been, this Fort Worth native highly recommends it!

    Ask the Community - Bass Performance Hall

    Looking at purchasing tickets, but all that's available is upper gallery box R ZZ. It's says partial obstruction and can't see to find view of seats on line. Has anyone sat there before. Are the seats worth it?

    Hi Jessica, please reach out to our Box Office at boxoffice@basshall.com or 817-212-4280. They'll be able to give you more context on the seats you're seeing at www.basshall.com.

    Is it safe for visitors to Van Cleburne concerts to walk around this area as they stay in a hotel?

    Very safe. You'll enjoy the concert and the whole area.

    Does anybody know if professional photography is allowed? (Asking for after the quarantine)

    The times I have been there No… 

    When do the doors open?

    Severe hours before performance

    How much is it to purchase wine during intermission?

    Depends on the wine. Anywhere from $9 and up.

    From out of state & never been to bass hall or seen phantom of the opera leaving town 2morrow so really want to see it 2night but not many seats left and prices have increased. Would the very top row M be worth it? Also do these have leg rm

    Is there a stage door for this theatre and if so, where is it?

    There is - it's along the Calhoun Street side of the Hall

    Where are the best seats at Bass Hall?

    There is a seating chart that includes pictures of the stage from the seats at www.basshall.com/plan-your-visit/seating. We like the orchestra level, but mezzanine level is also good if you want to be up a little higher.

They don't have a full kitchen but considering, they made delicious soups and sandwiches for us. I had the green pozole and the Reuben which were both great. It was super quiet when we went, probably due to the cold weather on a weeknight but we had some heaters which meant we could sit outside. I'd love to come back in the summer or when they have a live band playing. A great little spot.

General admission is pretty reasonable--usually around $6 to $8 depending on the day and time you go. The place is absolutely massive!! I had no idea that it was so big!! Not only is there a whole dedicated dance floor but tons of pool tables, arcade games, and even a full indoor rodeo arena for live bull riding! I was misled and thought there was a mechanical bull.. there is not unfortunately but there is like a fake bull you can pay and take photos with. We happened to walk in right in the middle of a line-dancing class, which was super fun to watch! It's pretty amazing how quickly the dancers, both men and women, picked up the steps and choreography. They were all super good! Afterwards, it transitioned into open floor dancing, which was equally entertaining in my opinion! As a first-timer, it was a total blast and it's easy to see why it's such an iconic tourist destination. We didn't end up eating here since we had just grabbed dinner at Cattlemen's nearby, but the BBQ and other food options here didn't look super appetizing. Still, for drinks, dancing, and authentic Texas atmosphere, it's a must-visit when you're in the Stockyards!
