    I'm actually shocked at any/all of the negative reviews of the Orpheum! We've been traveling up here from Scottsdale for years now and ALWAYS have a great experience! Staff is friendly, served us right away and were super nice. We just saw Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness last week and the sound/stage were PERFECT!!! We've also come here for film fests and other concerts (Pepper for one) and it's always awesome. Look forward to our next jaunt up to Flag for a show here!!

    I've been to a multitude of events at The Orpheum- performance art acts, NAU university activities, Adult Prom two years in a row, and handfuls of concerts, whether it be smaller, local bands or HUGE bands such as Modest Mouse and Tegan and Sara. Overall, I think it's a great venue, but a few improvements would make it incredible. Pros: intimate space gives you the ability to get close with the acts that you love, good sound system, cool rafter seats, you can sit or stand depending on preference, cool atmosphere and historic space. Cons: can get super hot in the venue, especially in the summertime, bar is pricey (but what concert venue isn't?) and can have long wait times. I love the downtown location and the fact that you can walk to a myriad of restaurants or bars before or after a performance. Thank you, Orpheum, for great memories!

    Dishonest about ticket prices. Signs outside the door for their Pride After Party stated a $15 cover charge. The cover was actually $18. I paid with cash and pointed out that it's pretty misleading to have the sign advertise the wrong ticket price. The person at the box office said it was fees for printing tickets and taxes. So it's not a cover it's a ticket fee. They really should be more honest about their ticket prices.

    What a great venue! The staff was efficient and friendly and the show was amazing, and the bathroom was pretty clean! Can't wait to come back for another show.

    I love this music venue! It is nice and intimate and there is not a bad spot in the place to watch live music. Beware- the bar has a $10 minimum for credit cards and $.50 service charge for every transaction. You may just want to bring cash to avoid those pitfalls.

    If you're looking for fancy & latest, this is not your place. This place is cozy, intimate and quaint. The sound was fine, nothing fancy but it got the job done. We saw Blue October and sat in the theatre seats. It was nice and comfy with plenty of leg room.

    Lowell Observatory - Telescope that found pluto

    Lowell Observatory

    (306 reviews)

    **July 2026: Tuesday Afternoon**…read more Growing up, Pluto was still considered a planet, so when I found out the observatory where it was discovered is in Flagstaff, I knew I had to include Lowell Observatory on my itinerary. During the summer, tickets were $43 for adults, $38 for seniors (55+), and $28 for children (6-17), with hours from 1 PM to 11 PM (which makes sense with the later sunsets). My friend and I arrived around 2 PM and were able to jump right into a mix of lectures and guided tours. One of the highlights was being led to the very telescope where Clyde Tombaugh discovered Pluto. It was such a surreal, full-circle moment. Our guide also shared the history of Percival Lowell and walked us through the grounds, which added a lot of depth and context to the visit. I also appreciated how interactive the experience was. There are telescopes available for guests to use during both the day and night, and your admission includes a clip-on badge that allows you to leave and return later in the evening. We had planned to come back after dinner to try and catch a view of a planet, but unfortunately it was a cloudly forecast so we were out of luck. Even without perfect viewing conditions, the experience was still incredibly worthwhile. It's such a great place to learn, enjoy the outdoors, and appreciate the curiosity and dedication of scientists and researchers. We ended up attending several talks and tours and learned a lot throughout the afternoon. We stayed from about 2 PM to 6 PM and even grabbed a grilled cheese sandwich at the café, which hit the spot. Overall, Lowell Observatory is a unique and educational stop that I'd definitely recommend adding to your Flagstaff itinerary--especially if you have any interest in space or astronomy.

    I have to admit that I was extremely disappointed in our experience at Lowell Observatory. Do not…read morego during overcast or rainy weather! We pre-paid for our tickets (which are non-refundable), and had no choice but to go on the only day we were in Flagstaff... when it rained. The big clue should have been us driving into an absolutely empty parking lot. Most of the cool experiences in Lowell are weather-dependent. We couldn't look through the large telescopes because of the overcast. The observatory show (and many of the outdoor shows) were canceled. All the things that make the high admission price tag worth it just weren't possible. With that said, there aren't many indoor, inclement-weather-friendly activities at the observatory, which made for a fairly boring experience. We walked around for an hour, and then just left. The Lowell Observatory needs to expand in my opinion or offer discounted rates for days when most of its experiences are closed. Positive notes... the drive up to the observatory is very pretty. They have an awesome gift shop. And you can see the telescope that discovered Pluto.

    Kitt Recital Hall - Piano soloist on a different date

    Kitt Recital Hall

    (1 review)

    This summer my husband and I attended 4 classical music concerts at Kitt Recital Hall: three in…read moreJune and one in September. This is a very well-designed recital hall. The acoustics are excellent. The stage is large. There are no pillars blocking anyone's view. This is a great place to hear a concert. There is an area near the entrance to the recital hall that accommodates people who need handicapped seating. All the seats in the recital hall are comfortable cushioned seats. The incline of the recital hall is fairly steep. This means that you are likely to have an unobstructed view even if a tall person sits in front of you. This also means that you need to be careful when moving to your seat, especially because the rows are spaced fairly close together. It is not easy to get past people who remain seated when you are trying to reach your seat. We usually sit either on the left aisle or right aisle; there is no center aisle. All the concerts we attended had unassigned seats. The lobby could use more seating. None of the lobby seating has backrests, although it is often possible to lean against the lobby wall. The parking is confusing. There is a paid parking garage across the street from the recital hall. We parked there once. The other times we parked in the surface parking lot for the music school. This lot is west of the recital hall. We attended concerts during the summer when the university was not in session. We went to at least one nighttime concert, when we figured classes were not in session. The signs said the surface parking lot was restricted to people with permits, but we never got a ticket. It is not easy for nonstudents like us senior Flagstaff summer visitors to find out about the concerts at Kitt Recital Hall. I don't recall whether I ever saw them advertised on www.flagstaff365.com. I found out about most of them by word of mouth. Tickets are purchased from a Northern Arizona University website. Next summer we will try to locate a NAU music school website, or an NAU events website. The concerts would be better attended if they received more publicity. The excellent June piano concerts were sparsely attended. We attended a September concert that was packed with recently returned students. We always bought our tickets online. There apparently is a box office, but I don't know its hours.
