For a stadium concert, the sound is awful. I will definitely listen to my favorite bands on Spotify with earbuds and not be bothered with the cost and inconvenience read more

Old Faithful 49ers! Man, Levi's Stadium is as grand as grand can be! From beautiful plush red seats to cup holders, to club lounges to business conference to trade shows to private holiday parties that happens here every holiday, there is so much more to Levi's Stadium besides football and the 49ers! If you've never been, I do hope you do! You will be amaze. I have yet to see the Museum and can't wait to see it up close!! There are plenty of reviews already here so I'll keep mine short, but one thing I'd like to share from my experience, the STAFF here are just FANTASTIC! Kudos to each of you for your excellent service! I can't thank you enough!! PS - there is an EV (electric vehicle) parking over at the VIP parking just across the entrance bridge. Go all the way towards the back where you will find a row of "Level 2" charge provided by NRG EVgo! Cheers! read more

Not because I hate the niners but I live right down the street from this place why when they built this place they didn't make it dome the seats that face the sun sucks you roast for half or all the game it's too dam expensive ,and they say raider fans are bad when I was there I seen niner fans stomping the shit out of people you spend a lot of money to go to these events and you see shit like that not cool.ill I'm saying is you need more staff pay them well and maybe they'll do there job. So now it's 9/21/17 The lines are ridiculous still waited inline for a hour for chicken tenders but they ran out when we got to counter by the time we got back to seats game was almost over . They need to figure out how too manage lights read more

This review is just for my experience with the stadium and a private event, and not of a football game attended. My experience was 5 star with the entryway into the private VIP lounge and the amenities there. I can only imagine what that experience would be if I were to attend a game and n this same spot if I could afford that, which I cannot. We were treated to a visit on the field and some football drills which was super fun. In addition, the highlight of the trip was a meet and greet with HOF quarterback, Joe Montana. If that is not 5 stars, I don't know what else is. read more

Seats are tiny and my knees were into the ladies shoulders in front of me. I'm only 6 feet so I dont know how taller people handle it. You CANNOT go to your seat from both directions and you have to crawl over people constantly and then they crawl over you. Back and forth and back and forth...omg...my toe is black and blue from getting stomped on. Hate the forever changing ad wall. Don't like that they kick you out 5 minutes after the game. Don't like that all vendors close immediately. How can I buy swag if the merch table closes at the whistle?! The stadium sucks. Just like the home team. So it fits. read more

Levi's Stadium - Mothers Day with the USWNT - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Santa Clara, California

I am writing this review because of the extremely bad service I received. My husband had two tickets to The Rolling Stones concert Wednesday night the 17th. Unfortunately we were not able to make the show because after 2 days of trying to get a hold of someone (and we were calling the number that was on the tickets for assistance) no one even bothered to call us back. We made at least 6 calls in he two days and left our information and a return phone number several time. So the money spent on the tickets was a waste!! Good luck to anyone with ticket problems read more

What better way to experience the Levi's Stadium for my first time than with watching the Queen Bey herself, Mrs. Beyoncé Knowles Carter! Last Saturday I was blessed with the opportunity to finally visit Levi's Stadium and I had such a wonderful, stress-free experience. After walking from our hotel, Marriott on Mission College Dr., we walked through the parking lot and entered through main gain B. Actually walking thru security and the bag check was super quick, I was shocked. Once you walk over the bridge connecting the parking lot to the stadium, you realize how massive the stadium actually is. Now finding the entrance for our seats was super easy too. After climbing a short flight of stairs we found our section, 104. Now the concert begins. I'm blown away with the sound quality blasting my ears. The quality is nothing I've ever heard in previous outdoor venues. You can tell that they invested some good paper to make this sound quality top notch. I felt the sounds and bass throughout my body, it was amazing! Once the concert ended, getting out and leaving the venue was just as easy as entering. After walking down the short flight of stairs, we walked out the same gate we entered thru and proceeded to walk back to our hotel. I truly appreciated the ease of maneuvering thru the crowd and back to our hotel. Super easy. I can't wait for my next concert experience at Levi's! read more

Are you ready for some football? 666 is a sign of the devil and this happens to be my 666th review. I am writing this review for Levi's Stadium because I believe the Yorks signed a deal with the devil by moving the San Francisco 49ers to Santa Clara. Let me make one thing clear: This is not a FOOTBALL STADIUM! This is a multi-venue stadium designed to fill the York's coffers posing as a football stadium. Whoever designed this place knows nothing about football and the cruel South Bay weather. It's basically built on a parking lot that used to be a landfill...which is ironic because ever since the Niners have been playing here it's like watching garbage. And don't they know that the weather down here is a lot hotter compared to San Francisco? You see, the Yorks (especially Jed) doesn't care about the average fan and pretty much have priced out the average fan. It's now a playground for the tech millionaires who can afford the expensive parking, food, libation and luxury suites in air-conditioned and climate-controlled rooms while the average fans sits baking under a hot, blazing sun. With all the money they made by pimping Harbaugh to build this stadium, they couldn't even design an awning, roof or shade on the majority of the seating sections? Pathetic! The view of the exterior of the stadium is just four rectangles that looks like an unfinished erector set. It doesn't have the feel of a football stadium unlike Candlestick Park, and the atmosphere here lacks the charm, intimacy and even the smell of a football stadium. And don't get me started on the turf issues. With all the advanced botanical information available, you mean to tell me they can't even get a decent turf to play on as huge chunks of grass keeps getting dislodged as if Charles Barkley is hitting divots playing golf? I think this stadium is also cursed as a worker lost his life building this place and another worker, who is a Raiders fan, buried their logo in one of the concrete pillars just because he is a typical Raiders fan, dammit. As old as Candlestick Park was, I still prefer her over this new and glitzy stadium that's all show with no heart. Most of the people (who can afford it) that come here to watch football in their small bubbles of privileged life while drinking champagne and eating caviar probably can't tell you the history of the 49ers or name the players. They should rename this team the Silicon Valley Microchips (see what I did there?) and return the 49ers' name back to San Francisco where it belongs as an expansion team. I hope Jed York reads this review so he can run to his daddy and cry about it. Hey, put a roof over this box, will ya! The Romans did it for the Colosseum with their "advanced technology" centuries ago and really cared about their fans. You might as well be feeding us to the lions, Jed. read more

I am writing this review based on the stadium tour I took about a year ago...and its solely on the facility, as there was no event going on when I was there.. First off, what I really liked is that when you drive up to it, there is no doubt who plays there..Theres the big 49ers helmet out front, and its actually red in color, of course part of the team colors.. You start the tour in a very nice theater and watch the team's history. Even if you arent a 49ers fan, its very interesting and well put together Second, there is a really unique statue(?) museum inside as the first part of the team museum portion..Oh, the team Hall of Fame museum is on the street level as you enter the stadium..anyhow, there are true to size statues of former 49ers greats..for example, you can pose with Montana and Walsh as they are contemplating a play...try to cover Dwight Clark as he's flying mid-air for "The Catch" and so on The next part of the museum is like historic exhibit from the team's storied past..As a child of the 80's, I did not need a tour guide to tell me the significance of any of the SB 23 artifacts or anything else from that era Then there is the interactive part. You can actually don a 49ers jersey, complete with pads, and wear a helmet for photo ops..Theres also various interactive football throwing and kicking games. Only other place I've seen with this level of fan participation was the Manchester United Experience in Macau The tour concludes with a very limited stroll to one of the standing room only parts of the stadium..You can take pretty good pics from that vantage point though Needless to say, I highly recommend this tour! read more

Everything needs improvement! Logistics and organization for to get in/out of the stadium are just a nightmare. Traffic to get in/out is just unbelievably bad managed. Is it the stadium managers, city managers, event managers. Will never come back here!!! read more

This was my very first visit to the Stadium. (Mind you, this was several seasons ago now and I am reposting my very honest review again bc the 1st one was removed.) I took my hubby to his very first Seattle v 49ers game. It wasn't his first NFL game but it was the first one that he'd attended in the past almost 17 years. So, that was fun. It was the first he and I attended together. It was fun. We both love football and this was a fun spot to see the game. The Seahawks fans go hard, even when they're not at home. The security could have been tighter but it wasn't too bad. The fight that a girl was trying to pick with me was dissolved quickly. The restrooms were clean and in good repair. Food vendors were quick and efficient. The parking lot was a madhouse but I just didn't know what to expect seeing as I'd never tail gated before. Parking was a hefty $60 but I was appreciative of having my car near by when it decided to pour rain like it does in the bay. I was hocked by the diversity in the food offerings. I'd never seen Vegan food at a stadium or Indian food. That was impressive. I have to say, I was chagrinned when I saw some guy just at the top of one of the sections throwing up his guts before the game. Security didn't seem to care or they just weren't shocked and were taking their sweet time summonsing a clean up crew. Yikes!! read more

Came down this past weekend to watch The Arizona Cardinals disgrace the 49ers at home. But whatever....I'm not here to review how the 49ers totally let us down and how Beathard couldn't complete a pass and how the refs were making bad calls left and right and how I can't believe we lost to a team that was 0 - 4. Whatever. I'm over it. This review shall supply important takeaways for folk who have never been to Levi's Stadium. * The website has amazing directions to the different parking lots. Don't believe the hype that the traffic sucks. It's not that bad. * Don't pre purchase parking pass. We paid $70.00 on line. It costs $50.00 to park when you pay in person. * We parked in Blue Lot. It was a hell of a hike. Park in yellow or green lot if you want to stay close. * If you want to tailgate get online and see which lots allow it. * All bags/purses must be see through. If you don't have a see through bag bring a see through store bag. * Smoking section is downstairs on the right side of the main entrance. Just sayin'. * Aluminum beer is $11.00. Colors or Bud Light. You can also get draft Bud Light or an assortment of others (like Sierra NV) for $14.00. * Nachos/Hot Dogs/Bbq etc., all standard fare with standard high prices. Like $10/$15 for nachos. If you can't afford it then you can't afford to go to a game and honestly what do expect at a ball park? * AMAZING sound a huge TV screens! You will not miss a single thing the refs say or a single play the players make. * Seating is awesome. It's not super tight and they have enough cup holders. It's impossible for the person in front of you to block you because of how the seats are tiered. * Staff is friendly. * Security is there but not overly domineering. * The gift shop is huge with prices varying on things like jerseys from $50.00 to $350.00. They also have swag like mugs and stuffed animals etc., lots of vintage gear as well. Yup. We had a good time. I'd recommend the venue for games or concerts. Just park closer so your not walking for ever and ever and ever. read more

My very first visit came about because my son wanted to go to the Monster Jam (trucks). It was pretty awesome by the way! I'm very glad I brought my ear plugs! There were a ton of younger kids and a great many of them had ear protection as well. I was fairly impressed with the stadium itself. Ample restrooms, pretty easy to navigate. We were seated in section 121, so I don't know what it's like to climb up higher. From the looks of it those really upper seats are quite a trek! Food service was decent. I remember hearing about gourmet options when the stadium opened but I didn't notice any on our visit. Perhaps it varies by event. My only complaint is one that will come as no surprise to anyone who's familiar with the stadium: transportation and parking. I quickly gave up trying to navigate the sprawl of lots around town and sought a reservation. The event wasn't doing this for the stadium lots, so we wound up at the Marriott and walked a mile. I personally preferred this instead of sitting in traffic and meandering through packed lots. Indeed we saw people doing just that as we walked in and I felt truly sorry for them. One last insult came as we were driving out on Great America Parkway. Our most direct route was to hit 237. But what I didn't account for was traffic control at the intersection in front of the stadium. Parkway traffic was fully blocked for 15 minutes while we sat and watched batch after batch of cars drive out and people crossing. Eventually I just turned off my engine and later drivers began honking to remind the police there were other people trying to get through. It was not pleasant. My advice is DO NOT cross in front of the stadium on your way out. Next time I'd alter my route to take 101 and I'd be much happier. read more

Went here for the Redbox Bowl. Cal won!!!! Very nice stadium and lots to eat here. Walking wasn't bad from the parking area and it was really easy to get out of the parking lot to go home. Not as many people as there would be for a 49ner game so I know that's why is was easy. read more

This is an amazing stadium that was a super awesome place to have Super Bowl 50! Coming up here I knew that it would be an amazing time as this is a new stadium. With that said I was not let down what so ever besides the parking issues but I'll brake that down later. The stadium itself is huge and well equipped to handle a crazy big game like this one the staff here was super nice and very friendly with everything that I had a question with or needed help with. The sound was awesome everything sounded great and the huge scoreboard made it very easy to follow the game from that point of view. The only real downfall I would say about this stadium is the parking issues it's like park super far away in the business park and then trek your way through other businesses parking lots on a your mission to the stadium. It seemed really disorganized and kinda chaotic experience that cost $100 to park! The whole experience as one though was super awesome because everyone was so into it that the stadium was going off the whole game! The 49ers fans should be proud that they can call this stadium home as it's a great place to see a game with that said I hope to return here again sometime to experience what was totally good! read more

I know, I know...a football stadium isn't the sexiest of places to review. However, considering how the Niners' season ended more than a couple of months ago, I figured I should get this done before it gets any later it already has. Otherwise, if I don't, I'll have to wait until next season. Which, based on how disappointing the last couple of years have been, could also be said for the team's chances at winning the Super Bowl next year... What? Too soon? You're right...it might take a couple of seasons. HA! Now, before any of you get too riled up, let me just say that I've been a huge Niners fan ever since I was a kid, so that joke hurts me just as much (I'd just rather laugh about it than cry). However, as hard as it was to watch the team struggle on the field, my buddy and I agreed that at least we got to suffer in a much nicer venue than in years past! Having been home to the Niners for over forty years, Candlestick will live on forever in the team's lore, history, and memories. From a purely objective standpoint though, it was a dump whose flaws are no where to be found at Levi's. The concourses are wider, there are more scoreboards, the bathrooms are larger, and the seating/views are better (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/levis-stadium-santa-clara?select=JtIV0fYXYofG6uOL3c5XFQ). Not to mention, of course, the modern touches, like wi-fi and its use of green technologies. Plus, the food is vastly improved, much more plentiful, and quite varied. No lie, the Pulled Pork Nachos ($13) I had from the "BBQ" concession stand were pretty legit! Meaty, cheesy and delicious (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/levis-stadium-santa-clara?select=XGds2l6BTW7QHJXnKft9DQ). All that having been said, Levi's is certainly not without its flaws. Aesthetically, while the stadium has a very modern look and feel, it's also kind of ugly. I get that not every venue like this can have the same type of appeal and character as SF's AT&T Park (what with the cove and the view), but this place basically consists of a giant, square building (that almost looks like a wall from the lot) attached to a tiered ring of seats (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/levis-stadium-santa-clara?select=zoQGHVKKprV0220bnlXUzw). Plus, between all of the concrete, glass, and steel, it feels very cold and sterile. Beyond that, the biggest functional problem might be how half the stadium bakes when it's hot and sunny out. Fortunately for us, it was an overcast and chilly day, so the heat wasn't an issue when we were there. If it's a warm, sunny day though and you're not seated in the shade of the giant box? Bring a hat, wear some shades, buy the grossly overpriced water, and lather on that suntan lotion like you're basting a turkey because you are going to ROAST. If/when you do come here, regardless of whether it's for a game, concert, or some other public event, strongly consider taking public transportation (VTA). While we didn't experience it ourselves, driving in and out of here can be rough. By comparison, going between the station and the stop was a breeze (the lines were clearly marked), the ride was short (we parked in Mountain View), and the cost was a fraction of the $60 the stadium's lots were charging. Considering how that's the equivalent of four nachos and a drink, I'd rather take the train. read more

This stadium is still pretty new and it will be quite a while until it (and the team) earn respect. Good ol Candlestick had tradition and vibe that cannot be replaced by this modern marvel. I attended the Manchester United vs. Real Madrid soccer match that was played here on 7/23. Here are the thumbs up items: decent view of the field and scoreboard is easy to read. Lots of restrooms around, so there is less waiting. The staff and security folks were helpful and pretty decent to talk to. Here are the thumbs down items: $60 to park and tailgate. $14 for premium beer, $10 for regular beer, $9 hot dogs and $6 for fries? Getting out of the parking lot leaves much to be desired. You may want to tailgate AFTER the game also, be ready to wait a while! I'm really glad that we ate before the game and did not have to buy any of the concession food and drinks here. read more

This is a review for receiving Covid 19 vaccination at Levi's stadium. This was administered by Santa Clara county medical services. I scheduled my vaccine appointment at Levi's stadium using the link below. But in my experience, it's very time consuming to stand in line for 2-3 hours to get a vaccine. I got a Pfizer shot and they will schedule your second shot at the site. For Levi's stadium, you can use Green Lot 1 for parking if your appointment is already scheduled and parking is totally free. After you exit the parking lot, you will stand in line outside the building for a while and they hand over some forms to fill up. Please fill up those forms before you go inside for vaccination. Also they might ask confirmation email from the appointment system. You also need to carry your government ID such as drivers license and insurance information. Vaccine shot itself was very quick and after the shot, they advise you to wait in the observation area for 15 minutes. If you feel any side effects, you can notify nearby volunteers. Inside the facility they have clean restrooms. However, there are no restrooms outside and you may have to carry a water bottle, in case you are standing in line for an hour. Overall it was a good experience but quite time consuming. Everyone was following social distancing and mask mandate was observed. read more

LOVE OUR NINERS! I love our Niners, but I can't say the same about our newly constructed stadium, other than it is large, clean and brand new. It is quite a gorgeous sight however, viewing all of the fans in a "sea of red" during an exciting home game! This alone, is a reason to come visit this stadium. My husband has spoiled me, as it is he who introduced me to the beautiful AT&T Park in San Francisco. Once one has been to AT&T Park, nothing else really comes close. I haven't sat in many stadiums, but have been fortunate to visit the dizzying Rogers Centre (formerly the SkyDome in Toronto, Canada), the Los Angeles Stadium, the Oakland Coliseum, Candlestick Park and of course, the most memorable, AT&T Park. One of two disappointing aspects of Levi's Stadium is the typical "stadium" food. With a game starting at 1:00pm, and having sold out of their Shrimp Po Boy sandwich at 1:02pm, didn't earn them any additional stars. We were left eating subpar Bagel and Lox, Hot Link sandwiches and barely-garlic Garlic Fries. Even their soft-serve ice cream cone was icy and unappetizing. The other disappointment were the TV screens frugally populating the stadium. They were small screens above the menus of the concession stands, but they were too small to really see anything on them. It screamed of their "cost-cutting" efforts. Ladies: BE ADVISED Stadium security is extremely strict about your carry-ins. Leave your cute LV bags at home, as they have very strict specifications on bag size. APPROVED bags: The SF Niner clear logo bag that measures 12" x 6" x 12", 1-gallon plastic freezer bag, or clutches with a shoulder or wrist strap both measuring no larger than 4.5" x 6.5" are all acceptable. If by chance, you forget and arrive to the stadium with your unapproved bag, you will be asked to wait in a very LONG line to check that item in. Save some time and be prepared. This stadium does not have the beautiful Bay as a backdrop, but some benefits to revisiting this stadium is their 49ers Museum, taking a Stadium Tour and dining at Michael Mina's Bourbon Steak and Pub. One more mention...the Niners are closer to our South Bay home, which is now, ever so closer to our hearts. Updated review coming soon... read more

After an open house and two pre season games I can finally really add my thoughts on the newly opened Levis Stadium. As a 49er fan and season ticket holder at both Candlestick and now Levis Stadium I can honestly say this is a true major upgrade over the beloved 'Stick. Don't get me wrong, I wish the 49ers were still in San Francisco, but it wasn't like the city didn't have a chance. They had decades to get a deal worked out and it just didn't happen. The alternatives? A. Build in Santa Clara B. Move to LA. I think I am just fine wit option A. The stadium is nice. Is it 1.3 billion dollars nice? Eh, that's a stretch. Ascetically it doesn't do it for me. It's not ugly, but it isn't beautiful. The design seems rather sterile and lacks any character. Maybe this will come over time, but really winning (Super Bowls) will help more than anything else. It isn't all bad, getting inside the stadium is unbelievably easy (when compared to Candlestick). There are so many gates and entrances the lack of lines is a breath of fresh air. Access to the stadium and leaving after the game is just as good. Those of you who complain about how long it takes to park or leave after the game much have some real short term memory loss because Candlestick was a nightmare on both counts. Once inside the stadium the experience is pretty ok decent. Not outstanding mind you, but acceptable. The food choices are better than at Candlestick but if you're looking for bargain prices you might as well head to the IHop across the street. I do have one minor complaint; you only have that crap ass yellow mustard? Candlestick offered both French's Yellow and Guldens Brown mustard. My pretzel demands Guldens! The scoreboard, hmm a little difficult to read and figure out, but I'll get used to it. Any why must you block off the San Tomas Aquino Creek Trail? If you are parking in Lot 10, the walk from there to the stadium would be just 10 minutes, but because the trail is closed on game day, you now must detour around either Great America or walk though the surrounding neighborhood to get to the main entrance. Another bummer, if you happen to be sitting in the upper deck (Section 401), be warned you will be sitting a long way from the action. I miss my old Candlestick view A nice stadium yes, great stadium? Not for the money spent. read more

OUTSIDE: This is a new stadium, and yes I can tell everything is new. I like the structure outside and the big hanging banners. I like how after you get out from your seat and to the bathroom and vendor area there is a balcony with plenty of shade. WALK IN: Their clear bag policy is something I haven't experienced at any other stadium, but I suppose it's good for safety reasons. It can seem kind of embarrassing though like how am I supposed to discretely pack tampons and pads?? PARKING: At the golf course is expensive AND it takes forever to get out of there. Luckily my fiancé works up the street at one of the commercial buildings. Although the walk is 15-20 minutes, it was worth it to not have to wait in the long line to get out of the golf course. FOOD/DRINKS: Food is expensive as expected, which is why we didn't order any. Supposedly they don't let you bring outside food, but we were able to slide by with the food we brought. I think if it looks like homemade food versus outside bought food then they don't mind or just get someone who looks like they don't care about their job who will just look at your bag quickly and let you pass by. IN GENERAL: it's A-OK of a stadium, not bad, and not like omg wow. The parking situation really puts a damper on things. But overall clean. Lots of ethnic food choices. read more

I've been to the stadium 3 times since it opened. I went to an NFL game this past weekend and I was really pleased with the experience. They have a VTA stop right at the stadium so I very strongly encourage you to pay the $2-$4 to take VTA there. It beats the traffic and the parking fee! The entrance and ticketing is very straightforward and although I think it can be thanked, in part, to good planning, it occurred without a hitch. But the staff doing the ticketing, bag check, and metal detectors were polite and efficient and made what can be a stressful beginning to an event, very seamless. The signage for seating was a little less straightforward that I would have preferred. We entered and then found ourselves kind of wandering until we found a staff person to tell us where to go. But his directions were great and we found our seats very quickly after his advice. There are ample food and drink options all throughout the stadium and some that were very close to our seats. They also have things for what appear to be every dietary restriction out there. My one complaint is that for a new stadium with decently priced tickets, the seats were very close together. I realize they are trying to make the most out of their space, but I am a relatively small person and the two people I sat next two were also not large individuals, but I was way closer to them than I would have preferred. Thankfully one of them was my significant other so it was fine to be close to him, but it's a little too close for strangers. If you're just looking at the seats, you would think they'd be uncomfortable because they're plastic and thin, but surprisingly I was comfortable in them throughout the entire game. I think they have a good system at this stadium and have done their best to be efficient and user/ticket-holder friendly. read more

Levi's Stadium - Section 244, Row 3. Great Seats. - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Santa Clara, California

My first time experiencing Levi's was for a Xmas party thrown by Amazon Lab126 it was a small and intimate event so I couldn't review for that event alone. OK, so I was here for the Taylor Swift concert on Friday 08/14/2015 this was my first public event at this stadium and second time going overall. We were all worried about the traffic as we heard from many of our friends that it'll be just MAYHEM! Well here is the thing, I believe that would be the case if you were to be going around the exact start time of the show, go a couple hours earlier or do what we did, if you don't mind skipping the openers we went at 7:30pm and the traffic was about 15 min after we got off of the Great America pkwy to park in the Blue LOT1. We paid for the parking through the Levis APP and it was smooth and easy. We checked the handbags in which was less than 5 min as there was no line at that time, stood in line for security which took longer probably about 10 min. Once in we were happy as a clam, we went to the Candlestick Pub grabbed a beer and went to our seats! Taylor came out to perform and we all had our very awesome PixMob bracelets! The shows production quality was one of the best I have ever seen. The sound was amazing and the fireworks from Great America actually was a very sweet surprise for Taylor as well! LEAVING: Sooo even as an avid Swift fan we left right when Shake it Off came on as we knew that was the last song, we missed an encore if there was any but to beat the hell out of there, we were happy to leave at that time! NO TRAFFIC and we were home before 11:30pm! TIP: As a local living in S Bay I would use the VTA as much as possible. Dealing with the traffic is horrendous, but to be honest its an event venue that can hold thousands of people do not come to this place thinking itll be easy in anyway and don't let the traffic ruin your event! We will all get to where we need to at some point, just relax! The stadium is clean, beautiful and you will never have to wait for a bathroom stall, plenty! read more

I only went here because Tswift hosted her concert tour 1989 here. Otherwise, I can care less about fantasy football games. The stadium is huge with splurges over food and drinks. Less than 1 ounce or shot of liquor was a whopping $12! It was a bare drink. I would only come here for concerts and not football. read more

The biggest downfall for me is accessibility to the stadium. First, the Great America Exit from 237 was only one lane. We sat in the exit lane for a good 30 min. This wasn't even a Niner Game. Maybe you can get there in the morning and hang out at GA first. Parking Lot 8 and 6 is on a golf course!! I don't understand the parking situation. The lighting when walking back to the car was pretty non existent. We had to walk through the golf course, actual grass area (lots of up and downs). If you weren't paying attention you could seriously fall on your face. Dirty, wear close toe shoes. Then there were the workers who told you that your bag was too big and to return it to your car. Yup, forget bringing your purse because they only allow clear bags or small wristlets. Workers need to be more informed. In time, I hope this will improve. The most common answer was,"I am not sure." I did find out that the closer yellow VIP parking lot was only $35. $5 more than Lot 8. The caveat is that the closer you park, the harder it will be to get out because of traffic. Yes, there is a lot of parking around the stadium but no shuttles!! Disappointed. Lastly, food was meh. At least the price for a hot dog wasn't insane ($6.25). Costco hotdogs are better in taste and 416% cheaper (you get a drink too!). The price was expected but I was expecting more from the quality. The hot dogs sat at the window for awhile so the buns were soggy by the time I got back to my seat. Fries were halfway full. Skimpy. We got regular fries and they tasted like garlic. They have an app where you can order food from your seat and they deliver. Maybe that's the way to go? Personally, that takes away from being at a game! All in all, great new stadium but need to work out all the kinks before I can go watch the Niners here!! read more

Im a die hard 49ers fan and I absolutely love this stadium. First thing I noticed, the bathrooms are spacious and clean. Remember candlestick's. Yuck. I feel like everywhere I go there is a flat screen TV.I truly have never seen that many TVs in a stadium. I love the fact you can order food and they will bring it to your seat. This is provided to for a $5 surcharge. Absolutely worth it to pay. You have to use the Levis stadium mobile app for this. The restrooms are incredibly clean, spacious and available. The food is not bad. They have Seafood stations, wraps with curry, burgers, hot dogs, nachos, soft serve ice cream station, a corner section where they only server beer** A++++ for this. The stadium also had their own private restaurants if you want to go in and sit down. Whats the point if you go here? WiFi, the internet connection so you can post to Social Media, check emails and just browse your mobile phone is incredibly strong. I was impressed as I performed updates, downloaded apps and ordered food. :) There are interactive stations throughout the stadium using visuals and photos of you. Really next level, no expenses spared here. The Most Important Part, the view from the stadium. Granted my season seats are in the lower bowl and I am close to the field and the field is only a few yards to 15 yard from the stadium walls in some parts. The views are fantastic guys. Once I took the tour I knew it was going to be good but I did not realize it was going to this good. I walked around everywhere in the lower bowl, upper seating, suites and every view even both end zones are great. No bad seat here. The 2 large screens are incredibly vibrant and clear, the sound in the stadium is great and it gets LOUD in the stadium when full capacity. I'll be at the 49er games this year and I am very excited and pleased their stadium is in my backyard. :) What a difference it makes. Don't get me wrong, I will always love Candlestick Park and all the Championship memories. Time to start new ones! Go Niners!!!!!!!!! read more

I've now come here for two different events. The first time I came here was for the Cisco Rocks event featuring Christina Aguilera and Keith Urban on a hot summer day in July! Man, the California sun is no joke when it shines in Levi's. The food which was AYCE for the event was pretty awesome, but what kind of free food isn't? The second time I came here was to prep for the Super Bowl 50 halftime show. When it was in the 40's, the wind was crazy inside the stadium despite our thoughts the bowl-shape would protect us in the night cold. Nope! However, we were lucky to have a glorious 70+ degree day on Super Bowl Sunday. In fact, it was HOT HOT HOT! Luckily by halftime, the field wasn't very sunny, so pushing carts weighing thousands of pounds was nothing at all! The Super Bowl was awesome. I think weather-wise, Levi's is designed pretty poorly, but as for the atmosphere, an A+! read more

I attended the Fall Wine and Spirits Tasting 2015 hosted by Young's Market Company a couple weeks ago. It was held in the United Club at Levi's Stadium. I believe they were expecting about 400 people. They split the club into two sections. One half was the wine tasting and the other half was the spirits tasting. I'm not sure how many people actually attended, but there was enough room for everyone and all the vendors. It never felt too crowded. They made good use of the space. The highlight of holding an event at Levi's Stadium would be the football field. It was fun walking out of the United Club and seeing the field empty. I've been to Levi's Stadium for a few games and it's honestly not my favorite. It seems very much like a cookie cutter stadium. But looking out at it empty with a glass of wine seems to give it some character and charm. I can't comment on what it's like to throw an event here. But to attend one? I think you need to do it at least once in your life. There's nothing like having a football stadium all to yourself! read more

Based on the pros and cons of Levi's Stadium; it's an even 3.0 stars. It doesn't excel at anything but it certainly isn't the worse. Pros: Convenient to light rail so you don't have to drive. (Don't drive; it sucks in every imaginable way!) Security has been fast and well run for every event I have attended. Seating in 100, 200 and 300 sections is acceptably comfortable (see 400 section below) Concession stands are well staffed and relatively quick. Cons: Parking is ridiculous; huge cost plus long walk to stadium after said loss of cash. Traffic when leaving parking is horrendous. Section 400 is so steep I felt like I might tumble forward out of the seat to my death! The available food is lack luster at best and of course expensive. How expensive you ask; how about $15 tamales?! Yeah you can 10 for that price on the street and they will be better. Pro Tip: Avoid the Budweiser and Bud Light stands that are serving out of these new fangled aluminum bottles. They have to pour the contents into a plastic cup to serve. Thus they have to open every bottle and then pour, so even a short line takes twice as long as the longest line that is pumping a tap. Cheers! read more

Levi's Stadium - View from Section 210 Seat 1 - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Santa Clara, California

We came here for Thursday Night Football and it was my first NFL game. The 49ers were playing against the Cardinals and I was excited to check out this new stadium. It was too bad I couldn't go to the last game at Candlestick but oh well. We took the lightrail here along with a lot of other 49ers fans. It was definitely more convenient than driving here since parking was pricey. We got through security and were on our way to the stadium itself. There was the Thursday Night Football booth where they were broadcasting live just outside of the stadium so that was cool to see. We arrived probably 15 minutes before the kickoff so we walked around and checked out the NFL shop store where there was everything you can think of relating to 49ers from jerseys to jackets to t-shirts. Our seats were in the United Club box so it was close to the field. There were two food courts in the United Club box (one on each side) and a couple of bars in the middle. The food here ranged from nachos to burgers to hot dogs to pizza. Throughout the night, I ordered a cheeseburger with soda ($15) and the poutine tots ($12) while my brother got a hot dog with soda ($15) and the super nachos ($13). The cheeseburger was okay at best and the poutine tots were decent. Of course, I wouldn't expect much from stadium food, but I heard different things at the food here (good and bad). The bathrooms were clean from what I saw so that was good. The seats were comfortable while watching the game and the view was great. Overall, I thought this place was okay and wouldn't mind coming back for another 49ers game or for some other event/concert. read more

Not my favorite stadium. I've been here for two things, football game and Monster Jam. When coming here I take the VTA, personally it's the easiest way to get here you don't have to deal with traffic. I don't know what they were thinking when building this place. When you go to a Day game the sun shines on one whole side it's so hot it's like major sun bathing time. And if you're on the upper deck get ready for a work out! Long flights of stairs! For food, the food stands take forever, it's like these workers need more training. But the actual supreme nachos were actually tasty. I'm surprise though that Levi Stadium doesn't have a boba stand, we live in the Bay Area let's step it up! Don't get me wrong, it is a beautiful stadium, but I just can't be there when it's during the day. I will still come back to this stadium, but I'm still goin with the 2 stars. I don't know how much it can actually improve but we will see. read more

I don't really like giving out 1 stars but when I was thinking about if I'd return to this stadium I honestly can't say that I would. My boyfriend and I went to see the Earthquakes take on Manchester United this past weekend, probably won't be back again though for the sole reason they don't arrange any transportation for fans leaving the game going past Mountain View. Our experience trying to get home after a long day in the sun was so miserable it negated any of the more pleasant parts of the day. Seriously. Not everything was awful. All of the people working at Levi's that I interacted with were very nice and helpful. I liked how they had a lot of vegan options for food (way more than at Giants stadium) and that the veg hot dogs were a bit cheaper than the animal based ones (50 cents, but hey I'll take it). Wasn't a huge fan of them not offering any burger/fries combos, meaning if you wanted to get a burger and fries you'd be paying full price which I believe was something like $18. That's just ridiculous. As some other people have mentioned, the sun can be really intense and only like one small section had any shade. We didn't even end up sitting in our seats and stood on the main level in the shade the entire time, it would have been unbearable to sit in the direct sun the entire time. My biggest issue comes with the fact that when the match was over, many of us had left 5-10 minutes early to try and make the light rail, but apparently that doesn't make any difference. They held the tram until we were all packed in there like sardines and the air was gross, which would be alright had they considered some of us had to catch the Caltrain in Mountain View. By some of us I of course mean 80% of the people on the tram, and 100% of the people who had left prior to the game ending. Well, big surprise, due to Levi's Stadium holding up the tram we missed the Caltrain. Since it was a Sunday, this meant there wasn't going to be another train we could take for an hour, and we were lucky ones. Since we live in RWC we could take the bullet train, the people who had to go to the smaller stops (Menlo Park, San Carlos, Belmont, etc) would have had to wait an hour and a half! Most people ended up just paying for a Lyft or Uber. Look Levi's- you've already gotten us to shell out crazy ticket prices, spend $18 on a burger and fries, and leave our purses behind. Oh yeah, you can only bring in clear plastic bags and no purses or backpacks. Talk about environmentally friendly. Is it REALLY asking that much to provide us with the transportation we were told we would have and not just thrown to the streets after the event ends? I don't think so. read more

Brand spanking new, modern, clean, bathrooms for every section, a standing room only area with view of the jumbotron, lots of food, 49er's museum ($10 entry), huge 49er's team store, great VTA access those are the good things. The bad things, horrendous expensive parking, no breeze and no shade in half the stadium, security guards who keep you from cooling off on the stairs where there is actually a strong breeze, food not as good as Candlestick, $10 to get into the museum-BS should be free with price of a ticket, any bag bigger than a small clutch purse has to be left at a holding booth, football helmets not allowed in, the interior walls need decoration ie paint, wall art something to break up the shopping mall feel. read more

After having lunch at BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse, our group of senior citizens came to the Levi's Stadium for a tour on February 26, 2015. The five star rating is for the tour only. David, Jacob & Megan were our tour guides. They performed a fine job in escorting us around to the nine levels of the stadium. All I can do was ooh and aah at the ambiance of this stadium. (Yeah, like "ooh eeh ooh ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang"...lol.) Here I am an Oakland A's and Raiders fan (husband is a San Francisco 49ers fan) having ballpark envy. O.co Coliseum, as antiquated as it is and built in the 60's, ain't got nothing on this stadium. I was totally impressed with the fact that Levi's Stadium has wi-fi all over. I have to get up from my seat while at an A's game and go out near the concessionaire stands on the plaza level in order to upload photos on Facebook and/or upload to Instagram. Then, I can't forget the plumbing/sewage issues O.co has had in the past. While we were touring the stadium, there was a youth ice hockey game occurring on the ice. It wasn't the Sharks game, but still it was nice to see an outdoor ice hockey rink. All food being served to the fans is fresh - no frozen food items. There are plenty of wood ovens for freshly made pizzas. There's also an abundance of various types of food and beer. They have at least 32 vegan and vegetarian options. Wow, nice!! Our group was on the SAP Tower side. So, starting on the Ninth Floor of this stadium is the NRG Solar Terrace, which has solar paneling and beautiful landscape of assorted green plants. (Boy, am I having green envy again - matching the color of my Oakland A's baseball cap and Rickey Henderson T-shirt.) On the 8th Floor is the Verizon Press Level. This is the level for about 400 sports media reporters, writers, etc. The rule is none of them can wear 49ers sports logo. The owners also have over 325 days to prepare for the influx of about 900 or so sports media people for Super Bowl in the year, 2016. On the 7th Floor is the upper concourse, 301-328; 401-422, Bud Light Patio and Pepsi Fan Deck, and SAP Tower Suites 701-734. The Bud Light Patio also has ceiling panels of Steve Young, Ronnie Lott and other 49ers player. On the 6th Floor are more suites, 601-634. On the 5th Floor is the Citrix Owners Club, North & South Suites, Suites 501-534. On the 4th Floor, there is the Levi's 501 Club, Yahoo Fantasy Football Lounge. On the 3rd Floor is the Main Concourse 101-146, 201-231. Second Floor is where one would find the 49ers Team Store, 49ers Museum Presented by Sony and the Atrium. The team store and the museum are definitely the bomb. These two locations are a must-see for all 49ers fan. There's an indoor movie theater, in which a 15 minutes movie of memorable moments is being shown. Since my husband is a 49ers fan, he bought a new jacket to replace his old one that he has had since 1989. I love my husband enough to get him a 49ers umbrella (about $49), even though I am an Oakland Raiders fan. First Floor has the Brocade Club, the BNY Mellon Club East and on the SAP Tower side is the BNY Mellon Club West. The BNY Mellon Club Suites are exclusive. Section 138 is the BNY Mellon Club on the west side. It's not meant for poor folks like me to be there, unless somebody rich, very rich, has a hook up and invites me...in my dreams - ha! The tour guides also took us to the opposing team's dressing room...not really high quality furnishings compared to what the 49ers dressing room looks like. We only saw slides of the home team dressing room - walnut finished closets for their clothes and accessories. The Gold Rush cheerleaders have their own dressing room, which we did not see. read more

My first game at Levi's was Super Bowl 50 last month. And what a glorious experience it was - especially because the team we were rooting for - the Denver Broncos - won, against all odds, against a heavily favored Carolina Panthers team. I went to SB50 because I won the Super Bowl lottery (check out the FAQs on nfl.com if you're interested in applying), which gave me the option of buying two "Fan Passes" - aka nose bleed seats in the hot sun - tickets for $500 each, soon after the 2015-16 NFL season started in September. And the only reason I even bothered applying for the lottery was because the big game was local and I wouldn't have to pay an arm and a leg for hotel or airfare (yes, I watch my pennies carefully!). Without even knowing who the teams were going to be, I'd resolved to take my father-in-law, who has been a football junkie since his University of Denver days in the early 1960s (even before the NFL-AFL merger and the first super-bowl!) and more importantly a die-hard Denver Broncos fan all his life. So when the Broncos made it to the Super Bowl, he was ecstatic, and so was I (as I now had a team to root for vs. being a dispassionate observer) - we each immediately took out second mortgages on our homes to buy bright orange Peyton Manning #18 football jerseys so we'd be dressed appropriately. The big day arrived. We arrived very early to beat traffic, parked a couple of miles away at a cousins condo parking spot (he was out of town after a failed attempt to rent his place out for a kings ransom on airBnB), and walked with happy fans towards the stadium. The crowd swelled up as we got close, and I got a sight of beautiful Levi's stadium, decked with 10-storey tall posters of Manning and the opposing quarterback Cam Newton. Our fan passes allowed us to whiz right past the long lines and straight in, and we found ourselves with 3-plus hours to kill before game time. After checking out our seats, which were 5 rows from the highest level of the stadium and already baking in the hot noon sun, we wandered around the stadium --- checking out the low-flying security helicopters and well-positioned snipers adjusting their laser sights, watching fans from EVERY team in the league proudly displaying their jerseys (many autographed), and buying food and memorabilia from the various concession stands. The prices were RIDICULOUS - I paid $7 each for small bottles of water for us both and a lot more for two commemorative "SB50 - I was there" lapel pins. Finally, tired and exhausted with an hour still to go before game time, we joined other fans on a stairwell to stay out of the heat --- and got interviewed by a curious SF Chronicle journalist who asked what we were doing (the others sitting near us thought he was security and scooted away - I had to hang around as my FIL was dozing!). The funny thing is that he published the piece - titled "Stairway to Shade" - along with other articles like Steph Curry beating the Panthers "Keep Pounding" drum in the Sports Section the next day! Finally, the pre-game festivities began - Lady Gaga sang the National anthem, the Blue Angels did a fly-by, and after lots of other ceremonies honoring former players, fans, et cetera, the game finally began. It was a good game, and I won't go into details as those of you who watched it on TV saw it a lot better than we did from our eyrie up high. The half-time show (Cold Play, Beyoncé, Bruno Mars) was excellent as well, but my favorite part was that the sun finally went down behind the giant scoreboard and we were no longer baking in the sun, which also made the second half of the game a lot more enjoyable. Then, before we knew it, the game was over - the Broncos had won, and my father-in-law was more excited than I thought possible, yelling at the Carolina fans to go home and high-fiving ANYONE who was not in a Panthers jersey! We stuck around for the post-game ceremonies (how could we not), then slowly walked back to the car. So I heart you, Levi's stadium, for some amazing super bowl memories. Looking forward to coming back and experiencing a regular season 49ers game sometime soon. read more

Beautiful stadium! My boss has season tickets (140), he gave me tickets for the home opener! Club level access is the way to go: no crazy crowds, no waiting at long concession lines, no long restroom lines! Treatment from the staff is awesome, too. Food choices are many, and beer is overflowing. Lines at halftime can be long, but that's to be expected. Still, amazing experience & certainly five star service. Watched Brady play here a couple years ago & there was a downpour, wet & rainy! Was a fun experience then, and even more fun when the wether is clear & sunny! Can't wait for another game! read more

GOHAWKS!!!!!!! Rather disappointed at the exterior look. It's a total eyesore for how much money was put into this place. However, inside is beautiful. Love the intimate seating style feels like a college attempt feeling. Sleek modern design inside corridors, fantasy football hub with all the TVS is a great idea to keep more customers coming in but the wifi can improve but I'm sure it will after architecture improves. Would have been a solid 4 stars but as mentioned the exterior look is so just blah. read more
