I'm honestly ruined for other venues after going to show at the Honda center this past weekend. It's not that the architecture is extremely spectacular, or that it's a singular experience at this particular venue. But where the Honda center shines is that your ticket price automatically includes parking. This means when you're going to a show, you don't get caught up in a terminal gate, waiting for other people to pay. It was a straightforward process parking and going through security. Then again I was at a Weird Al show so there was no real threat present. I would love to come here again and other venues should take note and start to include parking in their ticket prices. read more

Parking - 3/5. The price of parking is built into their tickets. Even without the traditional pain point of stopping to pay at the garage, it takes a long time to get inside and parked. Getting out will take you at least 30 minutes unless you leave well before the event is over. Entering -4/5. Security and ticket scanning go pretty smoothly, even without the venue under construction. Seating - 4/5. Seats are pretty comfortable even in the 400 sections. Concessions - 2/5. This is a mess. They don't sell coffee or hot chocolate upstairs so we went downstairs to buy some. Went to the Wild Wings stand and it took 20 minutes to order at a self serve kiosk. Once we walked to the pick up window there were 40 people standing around complaining that they hadn't received their food. Around 10 orders were sitting in the window and no one was responding to the names or numbers. The only reason I didn't give a 1/5 is because my hot chocolate was nice and hot and had good flavor. Staff Helpfulness - 2/5. None of the staff were informed about where to buy hot drinks. No one was friendly or smiling except for the usher in section 434/435. He was very nice. read more

4++ Primarily, the home for the Anaheim Ducks (or the LA Ducks of Anaheim?) I've been to a Ducks game here before because the company I worked for had amazing seats against the glass. I'm not even a Ducks fan so I think I was ruined by getting such great seats. Not sure if I would come back for Ducks game lol if I had to buy my own tix for worse seats the first game I went to, a puck flew into the net above the glass at my seat and practically fell on my lap! I can't really speak to the food because I just bought beer the last time I was here. I've also recently come here specifically to see 'Stars on Ice' which included some of our greatest Winter Olympians - past and present. When I recently visited, they were going through some renovation so it affected the logistics a bit, but they were still pretty organized. The folks selling the beverages were super friendly and it was pretty easy finding my section/ seat. Getting to see some of our great Olympians was just so fun and the energy from the crowd was electric. Getting to see Alyssa Liu's viral routine and the Blade Angels performing their K-pop Demon Hunters routine was special. read more

Came for a Charlie puth concert and the venue was quite nice despite all the construction that's happening around the venue. Loved that there's free parking until 2027 which is the least they could do for all the construction contesting traffic. The workers were very nice in directing where our seats were on the floor and they were very helpful. Not a fan of the seats being so close together on the floor because there's barely and space to move around/ sit comfortably. Loved the grab and go options for food as that helped get lines moving when it's packed. Also there's many food options available and perfect for people who want variety. read more

The Honda Center in Anaheim is a great place to see a show. It matters not what you see. We have been several times now and love it. The staff is great. They will help you find your seat. They are nice and patient. They are great with kids. We went there recently to see the circus and the staff was so nice to all the kids and the place was packed. Parking is for a fee and not fun, but you will get a space. The place is cute and clean and it is not so huge that are a ton of bad seats. Most of the seats are great and the sound system is wonderful. The food is fine, it is not great, but it is exactly what you will find at another venue like this. The lines can be long and they need more staff, but it is fine. We always pick this venue over any stadium. You will be happy and safe here. read more

Went to the Honda Center for the 1st time to see Ringling Brothers Circus. It was surprisingly a smaller stadium than I expected. We sat in section 222, Row K but honestly section 222-225/ 208-205 up to the top row wouldve been fine Sitting on the very end would be a straight view of the stage but may be a little harder to see the actual faces of performers. Ringling Brothers had some great acts (i.e trapeze, biking, unicycle, acrobatics including the female acrobats, Wheel of Death), but the comedy acts, dance off and the audience participation to battle were a bit too long and boring. Loved the brightly colored clothing and upbeat, music. It was a pretty walk from the parking structure, through security (check online for what you can bring) to get in. You can't bring food nor water bottles. There are drinking fountains next to the restrooms. There is food.that you can buy. read more

*** Honda Center is currently undergoing a $1 billion renovation and is constructing Honda Center Encore with plans for completion by the end of 2027 *** Honda Center is the home to the Anaheim Ducks of the NHL. While the venue is currently under construction, the stadium is still open for events like Stars on Ice 2026. [Parking]: Currently event attendees can park for free in one of two parking garages - the Katella Garage and the Cerritos Garage. While I appreciate the free parking, it took my car 15+ minutes just to enter and park in the Cerritos Garage (via Cerritos Ave) and another 15+ minutes to get into the stadium. The worst part was leaving out of the garage ... my car took almost 90 minutes just to exit the parking garage and get onto the freeway. [Experience]: During intermission, the lines for concessions and restrooms were crazy and it was difficult to move around. I basically gave up exploring the concessions and just walked back to my seat. Our party purchased tickets in Section 400 and the view was alright. The sound quality was also fine and the stadium can get quite cold so bring an extra layer. [Concession]: Some of stands in section 400 levels include pizza (Anaheim Pizza Co. - Section 419), chicken tenders / burgers / fried chicken sandwiches (Slapshot Grill - Section 441), Mexican food (El Patito - Section 404), hot dogs / popcorn / pretzels (Quack Snacks - Sections 421 & 430), ice cream (Sweet Spot Soft Serve - Section 408), etc. [Conclusion]: Under normal circumstances, I would say it was a mediocre 3-star experience; however I have to knock off a star due to the horrible parking situation upon exiting despite the free parking. read more

Honda Center (aka The Pond) is great! In the heart of Orange County near major freeways so it's so easy to get to. This year they are putting in tons of money to renovate the Honda Center and it's looking great! The restaurants are faster now that there is an option to mobile order. They're also adding in new cool restaurants and painting a lot of the inside. They are also adding in a bar where you can enjoy a drink while watching the game. The only bummer is how annoyingly and ear shatteringly loud it is inside. They have definitely upped the volume on microphones and music inside. People from all ages (babies, toddlers, 30s to elders) are wearing noise cancelling headphones because of how awfully loud it is inside. My whole family and I bought noice cancelling headphones for the games, and it's still loud. Please turn down the volume a bit! read more

We came for a Ducks game and it was so fun! It was a bunch of Cal State Long Beach staff attending plus our mascot Elbee and acting President Andy Jones got to ride the zamboni. One very cool thing is all the concessions are cashless and super easy/fast. We hit the pizza place and basically just picked up a cheese pizza ($20.14), tiramisu ($9.54), 2 waters ($6.36 ea) and then headed to the self check out. The items must have an RFID tag in the packaging or some type of product recognition because when we put items on the scale, it recognized what the were. A simple tap to pay and we were on our way. read more

Seats were comfy, AC was blowing, acoustics were crystal clear, Anaheim Pizza was tasty and the PARKING was amazing. Easy in, easy out and included in price of ticket. In CA you have to shout out proper organization that makes navigating crowds easier!!!! read more

The Honda Center is a pretty great venue. The parking lot workers, security, and the workers within the stadium are the nicest I've ever dealt with at any venue. Parking is free for the events (to our understanding) so don't buy those remote parking lot tickets unless you REALLY think EVERY free venue lot is going to fill before you get there. The food was standard stadium fare. For sporting events, this place is probably awesome. For concerts, I can't really recommend it unless the artist is in the absolute center of the rink area and is doing a 360 degree stage/performance. The floor seats are very cramped and are padded folding chairs. If you get a same height or taller person in front of you, your expensive floor seat will be useless unless you got seats near the stage. If you have neck problems, sitting in the permanent stadium seating will be too far to see well and too angled to comfortably sit through a 2+ hour show. read more

Great for views, bad for sound. I've been here for a couple concerts in the last two years. While the venue is smaller than most arenas, it offers offers a decent view and comfortable seats from almost any section. The downside is the audio is consistently terrible. I'd recommend seeing your favorite artists elsewhere if you have the choice. read more

Super fun time last night at the Anaheim Ducks vs Toronto Maple Leafs game at the Honda Center. It felt extra ice cold on the stadium building, not just by the ice rink, so note to self and others:wear layers! I was wearing a tank top, long sleeve hooded shirt and a Ducks jersey, but feel that I could've benefited from a knit cap or knitted gloves or another shirt at least. We checked out the wellness fair hosted by UCI at the back patio. They were giving out free info regarding the various body systems and how they are related to our everyday health. People lined up to spin for a free prize and they were giving out free scarves. We decided to get chicken strips with curly fries again at Slapshot Grill and also soft serve at Sweet Spot. At Slapshot Grill you pick up for food and beverage, then pay at a touchscreen and pick up napkins, utensils, and condiments at the end. At sweet shop, you use a touchscreen to order and pay first, then bring your receipt to the servers so they can prep your soft serve. I chose pineapple Dolewhip swirled with vanilla, and my friend chose chocolate sundae with peanuts sprinkled on top. We found a nice standing area across from one of the eateries with countertops to place your food, which is honestly easier than holding stuff on your lap in your seat. My meal was good, my soft serve better. Depending on who does the soft serve, you get a more generous swirl or a more conservative one. My lady barely filled mine to the top but I kindly asked her to add a bit more (I mean for $9? Please be generous). My friend's sundae was in a cup twice as tall so she definitely got $12 worth. Plus she has a discount because of her season tickets. Yay! Exciting game with lots of energy in the crowd, I think because of the particular rivalry between the Ducks and Maple Leafs. We ended up losing 4-5 in the last 5 seconds of a 5-minute overtime! Our top two players left the game early due to injuries induced by illegal action of the opposing players. Hopefully not too serious. I've never seen so many hockey fights break out in one game! read more

Went to a hockey game to watch the Ducks with my friends. It was so fun! The free parking is amazing! It makes going to the game even more affordable, and the parking structure is really nice. The concessions are pretty good too. A lot of easy self check out which makes things move quickly. The Tri-tip loaded fries were delicious. The pickles were a nice added accent that I didn't expect. read more

I've been coming to the Honda Center for years. For concerts, basketball events, and of course hockey. It's been around a while, which is why they've been remodeling. Also for the 2028 Summer Olympics, I believe. They have improved their food items here. Also, it was a super big to me, but I love how in the restrooms they do have a warm water to wash your hands with. it's generally pretty easy to find parking. Staff is pretty nice. inside the arena it's pretty normal. Nothing too fancy but it's pretty clean and well lit. always a fun time! read more

I like going here for Ducks games. Parking is pretty easy to find and was included with my ticket purchase. On my most recent visit, they had people entering the arena from two different entrances. For whatever reason, one spot got access to their free giveaway item and the Puck Drop Patio about 5-10 minutes before the other group/line of people did. Doesn't seem like a long time, but it goes slow when you're sitting there in line while other people get to enjoy the pregame area and collect their giveway item. As for food, a lot of it is your typical grab and go food. There are some spots that appear to have food that's prepared to order. On the 4th level, they have El Patito where I had some delicious loaded nachos on two occasions. I've had a pervuian chicken sandwich ones from another spot, but I don't remember which one. It was decent, but it was stuffed into a little box with a few waffle fries. Hard to eat out of tiny box like that. At least give us a cardboard tray with cupholder like they do at Angel's Stadium. As for beverages, I really like Draft Picks. You get a souvenir cup and two fills for about $27. So far I've collected two of their 3 cups. read more

BETTER PARKING STRUCTURE , but NEEDS BETTER SIGNAGE and CROWD CONTROL! I'm happy to report that the new parking structure for the OCVibe x Honda Center space is a major improvement over the previous parking situation at this venue. The entrance to the Honda Center was accessible from the garage and everything was incredibly well-lit. Parking was easy upon arrival but leaving was a hassle. I was stuck in my parking slot for 20 mins when it was time to leave. Very few people were working the car lines upon departure. This was strange to me as MANY employees were available during my arrival. I wish I could rate Honda 3 1/2 stars, because the customer service was so sweet and pleasant. I asked for assistance from an entry attendant and they politely showed me the way to my section (which was a new section I've never sat at). Unfortunately, my experience was derailed a bit once my Ghost concert was over as the venue doesn't have clear exit signage. Additionally, everyone in my section was forced to go out a specific exit we didn't want to use. Many people had to walk all the way around the arena to get back to the parking garage upon departure. It was a hot mess and very tiring. As for acoustics, Honda was decent. I don't know if there was a sound issue on Ghost's part or the venue itself, but a lot of the guitar solos sounded pretty low. My view of the stage was great, my seat was comfy albeit a little tight. I loved the vibes and fandom of this iconic band. I didn't get a chance to take too many pictures of the Honda Center during this trip as Ghost has a strict "no-phones" policy which required me to seal my phone in a pouch. However, I can tell you the lighting was great and I didn't spot obstructed seating arrangements. Side note: Since the Ducks are actually somewhat good now, Honda seems more Ducked Out! read more

My brother got tickets for me, my sister, and my nephew to watch the Avs vs. Ducks game, and it was such an incredible experience! It was throwback themed, so the music and overall vibes were IT. I was hyped the entire time. Shoutout to the Ducks fans too -- everyone was super nice and no one gave us a hard time for rooting for the opposing team. Which honestly took strength on their part because we were up the whole time and won 5-1 But it was a great game all around. We grabbed pizza from one of the food stands and it was actually delicious -- it even had two different kinds of pepperoni, which felt elite. My only downside was that the TV in our section (400 level) wasn't working. I didn't think it would matter at first, but I quickly realized it would've been nice to catch the replays. Also, getting out of the building and parking lot was pretty hectic, but that's expected after a big game. Overall, I had a lot of fun and would definitely go back! read more

The Honda Center located in Anaheim, was my first time being inside for a comedy show. The place is I believe usually a Hockey place and maybe other events. Not too sure, but the parking lot has many different buildings around the Honda Center. So for the warning I got super lost trying to find the right building where the car was after the show. It was a mission that I am still traumatized by. The place is filled with people and the inside was a nice venue and was very massive!! So even coming out of this place we were directed to an area and when I got out of the building I had no idea where I was. I guess what I am really saying is just really really remember where you parked your car, which cross street it was at and take photos of where the car is and also getting from that point. read more

Best Ducks Game EVER!!! OH EM GEE -- we just loved our suite experience at the Ducks game! From the moment we walked in, it was pure VIP magic! Hours & Game Night Vibes We got there in plenty of time because suites usually open about 90 minutes before puck drop, and access to your space feels like stepping into a private party on ice! It's the perfect way to kick off game night! Suite Seating = Comfy + Stunning Views! The suite seating was AMAZING -- so roomy, comfy, and with perfect views of the ice! Whether you're cheering every goal or hanging with friends, it felt like our own premium lounge! Food & Dessert GOODNESS Let's talk FOOD. We had: * Delicious in‑suite catering delivered right to our door -- total luxury vibes! * A fancy dessert cart that showed up and wowed us with sweet treats (cookies, brownies, you name it ). * Tons of other food options in the arena if you want to explore -- from Sweet Spot soft‑serve to loaded nachos and juicy burgers ! You could even pre‑order snacks, entrees, salads and desserts ahead of time -- SO convenient! ‍ Customer Service The staff were so friendly and attentive! From getting us refills to making sure dessert arrived at the perfect time, we felt like total VIPs from start to finish! Just an amazing time with family and amazing memories made here!!!! read more

Food: 4* (expensive) Service: 5* Ambiance: 5* Food The food here is good and a little difficult to find per level due to all the construction occurring here right now. When and if you can find it, it is of good quality, but expensive. Although this is common amongst venues, it is no less disappointing. Eat before you go. Service Service here is good. Most workers were helpful, professional, and knowledgeable about the venue and were largely able to correctly direct one to the correct locations. Ambiance Overall a nice venue. Clean but also dyed. I'm glad to see the venue being updated and refreshed. I am excited to see the new parking structures completed. Right now, parking is a mess as they continue to build them. The impulse club is nice, good food, but it is strange you have to buy alcohol here but get free food. read more

Home of the Anaheim Ducks. First time visiting the Honda Center for a concert. Went to see the Jonas Brothers with my girls! Parking: Just like any stadium, finding a spot is a nightmare and getting in n out is even worse. Highly recommend getting dropped off and picked up down the street. Just walk a couple blocks down. Otherwise you'll be stuck in unnecessary traffic. Food and drinks: They offered the usual beer, alcohol drinks, and some food. I didn't eat or drink anything because prices were ridiculous. There's a plaza a few blocks down that has Chipotle, Dave's Hot Chicken, Panda Express, Carl's Jr, etc. Seats: We sat in section 434, row R. Row R is the very top row. Seats are cushioned and comfy. This section has a clear view of the stage, and we saw all the screens. You can definitely feel the base vibrating throughout the stadium. The sound systems, lights, and pyro worked very well. read more

Recently came to Honda Center for a Benson Boone concert and left pleased. Yes, parking gets hectic for big events, but I felt they ushered us accordingly. Also, the elevator usher recommended we take stairs when leaving, as the elevator gets packed as well. The venue is amazing for special events. It fits thousands of people, yet still feels roomy and cool. I also came for hockey game many years ago, and felt everything went smoothly. We ordered a Diet Coke, a beer, and some fries which came out to about $50 altogether, which is not too bad. The fries were very generous. I don't know if it was Benson Boone that made our night so mystical magical, but I really enjoyed my time at Honda Center. Also, we left few minutes before the concert ended, and beat the traffic. Bring a jacket! Even with thousands of spectators, they keep the venue nice and cool. read more

Haven't been back at this venue in years! The last is when I watched One Direction perform but I loved being back. It was pretty quick walking into the venue and going through security. The staff were helpful in helping provide directions to how I can locate my seat. The most recent event I went to was Hans Zimmer and it was absolutely incredible. As a huge fan of his, being able to listen to his music live with the most talented group of musicians was an out of body experience. Sat in the 200s section with my friend and it was close to where we had good viewing of the stage! They do have food and drink options and the pizza that my friend shared was actually pretty tasty and great bite to enjoy prior to the show or even during. The seats were cushioned and comfortable which made viewing the show even better. The bathroom lines can get very long so be mindful of that. Be sure to research what's allowed and where to park prior to the event, there are a few lot options that are available right by the Honda Center. For some events they are particular about what type and size of bag is allowed so double check! Be mindful that they do have construction going on, not sure when that will end but opt for earlier arrival! I hit really bad traffic when going to my event so buffer time! read more

Can you get worse than it already did. Well, it got worse. You place your own orders at the concession stands. Then at the end, it wants you to leave a tip. No straws for your soft drinks. Everything is extremely confusing are the Concession area. What's so funny is you do and they still want you to leave them a tip.. Also, the parking is a nightmare. I know they are remodeling and hopefully it makes it better but exiting the event is a nightmare. Everybody exiting to one little road. When they have a sold out event, they should actually have more traffic control from Anaheim Police Department. There one saving Grace are the ushers inside of the actual venue. They were all very polite. Every usher that we ran into was extremely polite and helpful. The actual concert was amazing. Trans-Siberian Orchestra TSO is an annual pilgrimage for us and they never disappoint. read more

I am absolutely pumped for hockey season coming up Again, I love Honda center and the angels stadium. (Don't get me wrong, huge kings fan here, this is just more convenient) I came here last year for one of the last games of the season. YEARS ago, the parking was way better. Now, you have to make sure to buy parking in advance with your tickets and get there EARLY if you want a good spot. For me, having a handicap placard, I always have to be sure to purchase parking passes ahead of time so I can get a good spot The lines to get in go by very fast. Also, ALWAYS double check what the bag rules are! Last time I went, it was small bags only and had to be clear. Security checking bags are always friendly. And there were no hiccups The staff are friendly, they are always there to help you get to your seat if you need the help. There's also tons of signs to guide you There's a good amount of bars and food stands inside. Again, lines go by very fast Same with restrooms. There's a good amount of restrooms everywhere. So there's not a bunch of huge lines I came here the night before a procedure, so unfortunately, I couldn't drink lol. (I usually like to have a drink or two since I get very into the game lol and don't hold back) the energy is great at this stadium especially when they are going up against certain teams When you leave there's some food stands outside When Leaving, there's not as much traffic as the LA stadiums. So bonus points for that. This will always be my go to stadium when it comes to games. Just beware, BUY your parking pass EARLY read more

Anaheim Ducks- Honda Center *November 26, 2025 *7pm- Wednesday *4 Stars Environment: *Large Parking Lot *Somewhat Organized Parking *Friendly Staff Food/Drink: *Bottle Water I went to the Honda Center to watch my first hockey game, Anaheim Ducks vs. Vancouver Canucks. I wasn't completely sure if I'd enjoy watching hockey, but after going, it definitely lived up to the excitement. The Honda Center itself is very nice and has a large parking lot. Parking was included in our ticket, which was great since I expected to pay an extra $15-25. The parking service did a decent job directing cars into the structure, but once inside, it became pretty confusing and difficult to find open spaces. Because of that, we ended up missing the first two minutes of the 1st period. Inside the arena, the staff were extremely friendly. From the concession stand workers to the ushers helping guide people to their seats, everyone seemed to genuinely enjoy their job, and it made the atmosphere even better. We punched a bottle of water, which was definitely overpriced, so I was really glad we ate before coming. We sat in the 400 section, and while the view was good, the seats were a little tight, especially sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with other groups. And for anyone attending a hockey game for the first time, definitely bring a jacket as it gets pretty cold once the stadium starts to empty out. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'm already excited to go to another game in the future. read more

MAKE SURE TO TAKE A LOAN OUT BEFORE YOU GO!! went to the Godsmack concert. you get free parking woopy! Disneyland/Vegas prices. mix drinks $19+, $40 for 2 beers (the stadium pays $60 for a keg of beer), $8 for 12oz bottle water, burger and potato chips $20 (the food taste was average but not as good as Habbit or others) and the food made me throw up and i was uncomfortable all nite. atmosphere was nice staff was vary friendly and helpful but lacked knowledge but thats it. at least 1000 security guards at the venue. no need for all that, explains why prices are overboard. i've been to at least 200 concerts in my life so i know what a good venue and sound quality is. concert sounds was ok. only 1 screen monitor behind stage. felt like a concert from the 80's but the sound quality was better in the 80's. overall it was a big disappointment and a total waste of money. the people i was with also agree. there are plenty of other venues to go to but i would stay away from here if its for a concert. hockey games is probably the only worth wild event to attend but PLEASE eat and drink before you get here otherwise it'll probably be a $200+ food/beverage bill for 2 people. read more

First time at the Honda Center for a UPW event and it was awesome! We stayed in section 207/208 most of the time. The event was massive, very organized, and parking was convenient. They had a convenient store that sold pizza, wraps, juice and more. You can scan the items yourself and checkout. Another place for food was the Classics concession at 212 with breakfast burritos, coffee, hot chocolate, snacks. Super fast service and easy just order on the screen and pick up. My husband found a food truck around 222 which sold pretty quesadillas, teriyaki chicken, burritos and more. This place is perfect for long days and convenient enough to get food in between the event. The stadium is really nice and clean, pretty cold so always bring a jacket to stay warm! Overall a great experience. read more

I went Honda Center for a concert. There weren't much parking, so traffic from ride shares or drop-offs caused immense traffic. When I got to the block of Honda Center, it was unclear what each lines were for and where they started. Lots of folks were just following the crowd. Eventually the lines went by quickly and there were good security measures. However, my seat was terrible. On Ticketmaster, it showed the stage was further back, so the side front seats (around 31) in the balcony could have had a view of the screen. Nope... I could not see the screens or even the performer for the most part. Everyone in my section was also disappointed. That wasn't the worst seat though. I saw someone sitting behind everything. I couldn't believe this was allowed at a concert. I didn't get to try the food. There were lines inside the center for purchasing meals and drinks. Restroom lines go shorter the further out I walked. read more

I actually really love going to the Honda Center for concerts or sporting events but it's helpful to know some tips prior to going to have a good night! Since they're currently under a lot of construction get there early! I actually don't park in the Honda lot but find ones just a 5 minute walk from the Center which makes it much easier to leave afterwards. Try to get there at least 60 minutes before the start of your event to prevent being late. Some events disallow large bags so leave all of that at home! There are detectors upon entry so it's easier to get through quickly. There are a lot of both quick service and concession stands around the arena. With their self check out options they make it easy to pick something up before the show or during intermissions. I personally like sitting in the 200s section for concerts. You've got a view above the stage (since I'm shorter floor seats don't always work for me). Seats are super comfortable! Acoustics are also great since this venue is smaller than other SoCal stadiums. It is also easy to access public transportation from ARC which is across the street and less than a 5 minute walk! read more

I came here for jin of bts concert. Parking lot was a bit crazy but they do have two parking garages opening in October. I did buy my parking pass weeks in advance via parkwhiz since space was limited. They do have the Arctic station across the street. They did have staff manning the merch lines. Lines for entry was confusing, they had vip line up first then general later on. Food is expensive $18 for a personal pizza and it wasn't good. They did have a good amount of restrooms available, I took a lap around the level to see which one had a shorter line. They did open up some of the mens' restroom for women during the concert. The restrooms were clean and the a/c was strong. Jin was amazing and after the concert, they did have a good amount of staff helping with exiting the venue. I did get lost trying to find my car and the north parking lot lighting was off so it was pretty dark. The place is outdated but it's closer to me than Staples, BMO, or SoFi stadium. read more

Out in the pacific this season it is Sharks or nothing with the joys of WillMack and Reavo's powers combining on most nights, but this was still a necessary stop on my NHL arena tour to see Beckett Sennecke put in work again (third game of his I've caught around the USA this season, I am his good luck charm since he wins and has at least one point per game, unlike how I am Macklin's bad luck charm that every game I see him live he unusually has zero points and the Sharks lose quite badly, like back in Tampa), conveniently located near DCA after a nearly full day of use of my expiring Magic Key. The arena is under significant construction so the construction walls are up everywhere inside and the outside is apparently rather confusing for my drop-off uber driver who also had trouble finding the designated pick-up spot at DCA, so maybe he was just bad at uberring in general to botch both the pick-up and the drop-off. I was on club level, which was just about the worst club level of any NHL hockey arena I have been to in the USA and Canada. The construction walls are up everywhere, limited food/drink options, surly ushers, this was like being at a juniors game in the midwest (there is a reason why they call it the MID west). What really bothered me was that Brewery X had closed and they had not announced that in any capacity. They had posted online menus everywhere as I was planning my sidequest in Anaheim away from my blue milk in Galaxy's Edge and Guardians in DCA, and Honda Center official accounts and otherwise never indicated it closed until I showed up on club level and tried to open the door to be told by the usher that Brewery X was closed, despite the sign on the door still being there which is how I had found it by following the signs directing me to Brewery X, no mention on any of those signs either that this thang had closed. I had planned to eat and drink there. They really need to get their life together at this arena. The one positive thing about the arena is that I had the F+B credit included with my club level ticket so you had to use their stupid app that crashed all of the time and didn't work for mobile order so I had to get up and go get my own food/bev in long lines at the kiosks and have the surly worker scan my phone. I think that was the most expensive box of sour patch kids I have ever had for a 30 (or was it $35?) F+B credit, but I happen to like sour patch kids so I would rather have a $35 movie theatre size box of that (which costs $1 at the pharmacy candy aisle) than just about any of the other questionable garbage tier food options on club level after Brewery X closed. That is all to say, you don't need club level in this arena at all, but in most arenas it is a smart choice. But smart choices seem to have bypassed this little corner of Anaheim. After the game I followed everyone else on foot to the bus stop and that uber pick-up went much smoother, as everyone else's did from what I could see. So if you uber here from DCA or otherwise, just go to the bus stop across the street rather than trying to get dropped off at the Honda Center. Look for the arch thing in my photos attached to the review. Club level was half the price of Crypto.com to see the Kings, but this arena was low to mid tier garbage for the most part here so it should have been about 1/20th the price of Crypto, which happens to be one of the finest NHL arenas in the USA now that I've been and had Doritos there TWICE. read more

I have been to the Honda Center for dozens of concerts but never reviewed it. This time, we went to the Charlie Puth concert with our daughters. We had a fun time and it sounded great. We started with some pizza and drinks before the show. They have a bunch of food and drink vendors that circle around the indoor stadium. The ushers are all nice and are happy to take you to your seats. The show started with Ally Salort who has a beautiful voice. Then Daniel Seavey took the stage and got the crowd moving. Finally the headliner, Charlie Puth, came on and played a bunch of his new songs plus all of the old favorites. My daughters had a great time, and we are all looking forward to our next show at the Honda Center. read more

Definitely not my favorite place to see a concert. I've been here twice already and both times, vibes were totally off. Came here last night to see Heart (one of my ultimate favorite bands) and although the show was great, Anne + Nancy Wilson were great. The staff were great. I just wasn't happy with the crowd. I went to Crypto arena for the same show. Totally different experience. Maybe I need a 3rd show to finally sell me on this place and although Honda Center can't really do anything about the patrons of the place, I'd choose somewhere else to see a show. read more
