Staff was very friendly and very helpful in locating our seats. The acoustics were amazing and there’s no bad seat. The seats themselves were very comfortable, padded front and back with ample space. It was wonderful!
We attended Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in Concert.
The concert was spectacular. It was the first time I had seen a movie with a live orchestra, and I was amazed at the timing. The talent of the musicians and the showmanship of the conductor was jaw-dropping. Soooo Cool!
Let’s talk about the venue. We arrived early and walked around looking at the merchandise and enjoying a beverage. When we decided to go to our seats, we were met with the usher telling us that our tickets were invalid and that we needed to go to the box office. At the box office, the ticket manager explained that our tickets had been reissued to another patron and that my money had been refunded to a third-party ticket broker. Unfortunately, the third-party broker never contacted me. I did not have tickets, and I was out $250.
However, the ticket manager went above and beyond. She thoroughly explained the issue, told me how to respond to the ticket broker, and then gave us two complimentary tickets. She also advised that next time we were in MSP and wanted to see a show … go to the source.
Way to go, Minnesota Orchestra! You have a fan for life!!!

Minnesota Orchestra Hall is a beautiful venue with amazing acoustics. Whether you’re enjoying classical music or a unique performance, the sound is crystal clear. The hall is spacious and welcoming, making every visit special.
Such a thrill to head downtown on a sunny afternoon to attend “Søndergård, Mozart and Stravinsky” at the Minnesota Orchestra.
My first visit since multi-talented Danish conductor Thomas Søndergård became the orchestra’s music director two+ years ago.
German violinist Isabelle Faust also triumphed in her Minnesota Orchestra debut, and the two hour program concluded with stirring works by Joseph Haydn.
We are very fortunate to have such a talented orchestra and beautiful facility in our community.
I wasn’t dreaming of a white Christmas until I saw Tony DeSare and the Minnesota Orchestra this month! What a delight it was to be back in these hallowed halls as an audience member instead of as a performer (my high school performed here in 2009)! I was delighted by the decorations and overall ambiance. The ticket rate was just right ($15 w/ student ID)! 10/10!
We always look forward to these performances. It is one of the great blessings in our lives to be able to attend. The whole experience is just wonderful.
The space is unforgettable. The music is fantastic. The conductor is charming and the orchestra is amazing. Unfortunately, they try and sell you tickets like you’re on an American Airlines flight and that’s a huge turn off.
I came for a season sampler that was too good to be true. Just like a time share sales pitch except more pushy and more charming. There was an exceptionally happy hour but then you realize they want you to relax your wallet. Such a disappointment.
Had a great time at the Elf movie/live concert. I had to remember to look down multiple times and remember there was a live Orchestra there!! They did such a good job, it sounded like the music blended in right with the movie. Parking was easy and there is a skyway to get to the 2nd floor of Orchestra Hall. Waiting area is very nice and good options for snacks and drinks before the show and during intermission. They also had complimentary lockers (with a key lock included) which was great for our jackets.
