I have been to two shows in the last year here at the Grand Theatre, and while I think it's a great…read morevenue, it's not perfect. The venue itself is nice. Well designed, lots of bars and bathrooms. It's easy to get in and out. Traffic flow is usually not too bad. They do have construction happening for the new arena, which means that parking at the GSR is limited, so be aware on show nights and come a bit early. The bar prices are semi-reasonable. They have beer, canned cocktails, and some wine choices. They also have light snacks for purchase, but no real food options. The primary challenge with this venue is the sound. It's just not great. The echoes are noticeable, and it's often way too loud in here. I always feel like I need my earplugs at this venue. Many reviews tell you how great their show was, and I think they are confusing the show quality with the venue quality. The shows here are great, but that doesn't have anything to do with the venue itself. If you are looking for a top-shelf auditory experience, you might want to consider seeing your show at another venue. If you're okay with some sound imperfections, the Grand Theatre is a perfectly fine venue.

We walked up to the counter and Cohen was there to help us choose our Brit Floyd Tickets. This will be my 3rd year, but the music is so great, I bought two nights so I could hear The best of the Wall one night, and my friend and I will see The Dark side of the moon the last night. Wow! I am over the moon. It was so easy and thank you Cohen, you made this a Five Star ticket buying experience with your exceptional customer service. See you on The Dark side of the Moon, in June.

I like that they provide a big cooler of water for people to fill their cups. Another customer lit up a joint in front of my two 12 year olds. I wasn't too crazy about that, for their first all ages show, but it's Reno I guess. To their credit, I explained the situation and they quickly & respectfully extinguished. (Now I'm a Karen, dang...) We didn't try the food, but the drinks were reasonably priced. Great selection of beers & cider on tap. Super nice employees. Excellent sound quality. Looking forward to seeing another show in the near future!!

The bar had a decent selection of drinks and was average for this type of spot. The issue I have is the audio quality of the venue. It is poor. There are two flown speakers on either side of the stage, they are directed to the rear of the room. There is nothing to cover the front of the audience. I was up on the railing for the show and I could not hear any vocals from the band. There are wedge monitors directed at the band, but no front fills for the audience. I had a good time, but the audio quaility needs to be improved.

Donated some board games along with those they have provided. The light over the table is good but we bring a small usb desk lamp to tell colors on game pieces. We have even been able to ask that they reserve the table for us. Jill makes me Fiery Armadillos to my recipe. Probably time to donate another jar of the special cherries!

I have visited Cargo for a variety of concerts over the years and have enjoyed every experience…read more They book many different genres, and more recently I've noticed that they started booking comedy shows. You'll notice how well the acoustics sound inside upon your first visit. It's not the largest venue in Reno, but it still has a capacity of about 1,000. There is very limited seating in the back. Like most venues, there is no re-entry. Cargo does provide an outdoor smoking area. There is a separate room reserved for merch tables. Since it's crammed in a small room there are typically lines out the door. The venue itself is clean as are the restrooms. The bar is long and the bartenders are attentive and fast. You won't spend much time waiting for your drinks. Cargo has a good selection of beer/alcohol. They serve Tahoe Blue Vodka which has become popular in the area. I've noticed how attentive security is as well. Depending on the crowd, it's nice knowing they're aware of their surroundings and can react quickly.

Terrible acoustics- low end echo completely overwhelmed the show despite sound crew's attempts to compensate. Bad sight lines- just a flat concrete floor with no seating or rails.

This Holiday Market was so cool. Not only were there alot of vendors, they were all really unique. The place was full of color, creativity and tons of positive energy, just the perfect vibe. I do have to say that it was a bit warm and music was too loud to have a conversation with the vendors, but I suppose that's minor.

It's a true dive bar in the best possible way -- cheap drinks, free pool, good people, hot girls, hot guys, and absolutely zero pretentiousness. The fact that it's open 24/7 is a huge bonus, and being able to smoke inside just adds to that classic dive-bar atmosphere. You never really know what kind of night you're going to have here, but you know it's going to be entertaining. One of my favorite things is Family Day on Sundays. They provide FREE food for everyone, which is something you just don't see anymore. It really gives the place a sense of community that makes it stand out. If you're looking for a fancy cocktail lounge, this probably isn't your spot. But if you want a real bar with character, good vibes, pool, interesting people, and a place where you can walk in at literally any hour -- this is it. Been coming for years and I'll keep coming back.

Nugget "security" didn't clear the aisle towards the end of the concert and people were coming up and blocking our view even more by standing in the aisles. Not cool when we paid for better seats. Other then that loved the concert!

This…read moremeans it's flat and has some issues with sound being properly mixed for all the seats in the house. I went to 2 different concerts over the last weekend here. We sat in different locations and got two completely different experiences. Both shows were low turnout, not sure why, but my suspicion was a combination of low advance advertisement and particular acts who peaked in the late 90s. The bars seem to be plentiful enough to keep even the busiest of concerts moving well, and the bar we went to served a good white russian. So my tips on this venue would be to be very careful about where you get your seats, you could find yourself in front of huge loud speakers and hate your experience. Row 24 is right behind the sound booth and could hamper your view. Getting more centered and closer to the front will probably get you the best sound and view combination. Hoping they bring in more good quality acts in the future.
