Seating is not permanent theater seating. They were chairs I imagine are reconfigured around round tables for a wedding another time. It felt very spread out and like a convention keynote. But if you really like the performer, I suppose you can overlook that and enjoy the show. Free parking was nice! We skipped the valet and used self-park in the garage. They waived us all through after the show so there was no fee.

The Music Box is located alongside the casino near the Borgata buffet. The location makes it very easy to enter comfortably right before showtime. The Music Box is not Borgata's main showroom, but instead a medium size venue with about 1000 seats. There are floor seats and elevated seating to suit most people's needs. You'll get a great view and sound from just about anywhere. If you're seeing a rock band, the first few floor seat rows to the side of stage may be too close to the speakers. They do have a bar within the theater with basic drinks. The venue is well-staffed with experienced help to ensure a smooth show.

We arrived early 'cause we're old, we didn't want to stand all night, and hoped to grab a table by the bar. We had to wait for 5-10 minutes outside before the doors opened at 7:00. It was cold out there! While we stood there, a bouncer came outside and stood with us. He could have remained indoors where it was warm. But in a gesture of silent solidarity, the dude joined us in the cold until the doors opened. He didn't make a big deal about it, just stood with us. You know, in our angry, cynical, stressed out world, it's awfully nice to witness a small display of humanity. Thanks, big guy. Once inside we snagged a table near the bar. I asked the bartender for a virgin strawberry margarita for my wife. But alas, the margaritas are premixed and they'd all lost their virginity. The bartender offered to make a substitute concoction for my wife. She asked me to report back and if my wife didn't like the drink, she'd comp us. Again, real decency. And good mixology, too. The drink was great. The show was fantastic, the acoustics outstanding, and the overall vibe at ARC is cool but unpretentious. It's a kick-ass independent music venue. That was our first show, and we'll be back for more. P.S. If ARC is reading this, could you maybe book more hip hop?

I visited Ovation Hall during my first-ever trip to Atlantic City. I was pleasantly surprised by…read morethe venue, and I'd definitely considering coming back for another show. I saw the Totally Tubular festival, which was a variety show of several 80s bands. (The original acts, not cover bands.) The venue is located inside the Ocean Casino Resort. Ovation Hall is medium sized--definitely not intimate, but also nothing like a true arena. Acoustics were pretty good, and there are giant TVs on each side of the stage to see closeups of the performers. Overall the show went smoothly, with only one or two minor technical glitches, which seemed pretty good for the first night of a showcase tour. A friend and I sat on the side of the venue and still had a clear view. I thought it was worth it for $50 tickets (per person). This was a winter show, so none of the summertime beach traffic. The casino was busy but not overwhelmingly so. It was pretty easy to find parking and locate the venue inside. (Also it's not very smoky inside.) There are drinks available in Ovation Hall itself as well as small snacks. You can get more substantial food outside in the casino. Overall, I had a good experience at Ovation Hall, and I'll keep it on my radar for future shows.

A new music venue has arrived on the Atlantic City scene: Festival Park at the Borgata. This is an…read moreoutdoor concert venue tucked into a corner of the property by the Water Club tower. It occupies what was formerly a parking lot, and you could not really tell it ever was a lot. The space itself is set up nicely, with food and beer kiosks towards the rear along with some tables and lounge chairs set up in a grotto. Along the sides are the highest end port-o-potty setups I've ever seen, they look like construction trailers but inside are very private and clean restrooms with attendants. In front of the stage is a large grassy area where people stand or can sit on blankets/towels. No chairs are permitted. Strung along the trees, grotto, and above the trailers are festival style lights, which dim when the show begins. Because it's a former surface lot, to the left as you face the stage is a 4 story parking garage, and at the rear is, as I mentioned, the Water Club tower. To your right beyond the fence is another surface lot and Harrah's tower. This makes for not ideal sound, things tend to bounce all off the flat surfaces and do crazy things. Then again, there are not a lot of great outdoor venues for sound (the Mann Music Center being the one true exception in this area). It was a quite pleasant place to hear music, though, comfortable and well equipped. My one sole gripe: They allow smoking, and unless there is a breeze in your favor happening, you feel like you're in a bar. Stinky. Really stinky. Enough that it would give us pause in attending another event there, though for the right act we'd probably come and bring some masks or something to block the smell. The venue would do well to add some industrial fans to move that smoke along it's way, or, better, ban smoking entirely as other venues in the area do.
