    We attended a stage play at this facility. Great parking although it was a short walk. The inside…read morewas nice and clean, the lobby area was small but maybe it was due to many tables for vendors. The theater was set up really nice. The chairs were hard but that's after sitting for long periods of time. From time to time we couldn't understand the performers due to the echo but mostly the sound was good. It's a nice place with lots seating, good stage views no matter where you sit and even a balcony section.

    I've only ever been to this location for city events, and it always feels a bit empty and…read moreunderutilized given the lack of people who come here for State of the City addresses, Candidate Forums, etc. that are all broadcast via Stafford METV. From what I've been told, this was the first Civic Center established in Fort Bend County, and there was nothing like it for years until some of the other suburbs started making their own. Despite its age, it's been kept up with very well. The lobby area is well maintained, there's ample parking with the school district parking right behind the building, and the acoustics are solid. In the main area, there are tiers of seating, including a balcony, and the chairs on the floor are movable so different setups can be accommodated. There's a lot of potential. I really think the city needs to figure out more ways to put the building to use. It would be great for smaller events that wouldn't fit well at the Stafford Center's theater.

    Stafford Civic Center and Recreation Department - Our view from the right side of the theater in the back rows. Still good views.

    Bingo in the Heights at SPJST Lodge 88 is such a fun experience. It's incredibly organized and well…read morerun, and the staff keep everything moving and are friendly and efficient. Bingo is $15 and cash only, and you're free to bring your own food and drinks as long as they're not items the lodge sells. The crowd is younger and much livelier than the stereotypical bingo scene. Doors open at 5:30, and getting there early really matters if you want a good seat because it fills up fast. You can even reserve tables for birthdays or group events. They also sell mini cakes, popcorn, and daubers.

    Not your average Granny's bingo, that's for sure! I planned a social outing for my team/coworkers…read morehere, and we had the best time! I highly recommend gathering your group for a Thursday Bingo Night here, so much fun!!! They have an efficient system in place, and it is $15 (cash only) for a packet of bingo cards for a chance to win the big bucks for each round. I recommend getting there early when doors open at 5:30 PM, to save your table(s), especially if you have a large group, since it fills up quickly (including parking lot) because it's the place to be on a Thursday night. Their kitchen is currently closed, so you're allowed to bring your own food, which is fine. They do have concessions and a mini bar with sodas, water, beer, and seltzers too. My team already wants to go back, so we've started a bingo night tradition because of SPJST!
