Adelaide Entertainment Centre — Attraction in Adelaide

My husband and I went to see the latest Hugh Jackman show on August 13. The tickets were our Birthday presents from friends. Our seats were seat 481/82, Row C, section 26. I have never ever had such terrible seats anywhere! Not only could we not see the stage at all, we could also not see the musicians at all or the big screen. The only time we could see H.J. or his guests was when they would come to the front of the stage, but even then we were not only far away but could only ever see the back of everybody. When he was standing center stage, at or on the stairs or when he was sitting at the piano we could not see him at all. To make matters worse, the screens we facing forward so we could not see them either, and 2 of the spot lights on the opposite side of the stage were shining directly into our faces. When they were on we had to shield our eyes with our hands and programs, otherwise we were completely blinded. As if that wasn't bad enough, we could see straight into the backstage area. There was a light shining into that area from further back, which was already very annoying, but during performance there were always people walking around backstage with very strong torches which was most distracting. Also we could clearly hear them shout at each other when H.J. was just talking. We could also see the absolute mess backstage as no attempt was made to hide or disguise this. Absolutely disgraceful! We had zero leg space which caused me to have a terribly painful muscle spasm in my right upper leg during part 2 of the show. I had to get up and massage my leg muscle, then remain standing for the rest of the show as there was absolutely no way I could sit in my seat again with the pain I was in. Other people were hanging their legs through the balustrade as they, too, had no legs space at all. Our seats sell for $95 each! This absolutely outrageous and nothing short of greedy! The last 10 rows should not be sold at all as there is no view of the stage or anything/anybody on it unless they step forward and even then they are very, very far away and you are only able to see their backsides. The only view you have is straight into the backstage area. To sell these seats for $95 is a total rip off, I wouldn't pay $20 for them as they are completely worthless. Greed, greed, greed! It completely ruined the...

My friend and I attended the Sarah Millican show here on March 5, 2025. Great show!! We parked across the road, so I can't review the carpark, it was good to see an entrance to the carpark from the Entertainment Centre. When we were arrived, staff had set up rope barriers so that people could queue, but when we got there the queues were so long that it was difficult to know where lines started. The centre seems to be all queueing, there's a queue to get to security, then a queue to get in to the centre, then a queue to get a drink, queues to get in the next entry, queues for the ladies toilets, then queues at the doors to the entertainment area. We were in the stands, so our seats were almost comfortable and we had back rests. The people on the floor area had plastic chairs that looked like lawn chairs. The floors were so sticky that y shoes almost pulled from my feet as I carefully made my way to and from my seat. At first we sat in the wrong seat, but re-checked our numbers and moved to the correct seats. I feel sorry for the people who had those first seats, because they had to watch the show through fence rails. I get building a venue for thousands of people would be hard, and Sarah Millican said that there were 6000 of us, but I think the seats that don't have a view of the show, from a seated position, should not be sold until all other seats have been sold. Toilets -we need to stop men being allowed to design women's toilets. There are always huge queues because male designers think women want an enormous open space with just a few toilets. We want loads of toilets and space to wash hands, we don't need enough floor space to...

We went to the Entertainment Centre on Tuesday the 18th of February 2025.. my daughter and I went to see the Kylie concert.. we arrived a little early than usual to find a carpark. Which wasn’t that hard? The actual concert started around 7: 45 p.m. The actual duo act called MallRats, two young women which we thought were hopeless and not really entertaining at all.. Then finally, Kylie came on, and she made up for the rest of the night.. it was an amazing awesome concert, lots of costume changes and her dances, made stage presence light up.. she sang a mixture of her new songs of her new album and of course she sang all her other songs throughout the years as a performer.. Kylie is the same age as myself, and she is absolutely gorgeous.. stunning woman and the nicest person that I know who is in this industry. By the time the concert finished, we were knackered, and tired from all the singing and dancing we did.. I’m actually surprised the concert went for a song is it did , so pretty much we were there from 7:30 pm to 10:30 pm.. Well, that’s all folks .. Oh yeah, one more thing about the entertainment centre , if you tell my father you’re going to watch a concert or event at the entertainment, Centre, he would always say “ did you look at the trusses, I built those trusses, when the entertainment centre was first built,” my father worked for a company called Samaras engineering and the entertainment centre was one of his biggest jobs he ever did as a boilermaker. Anyhow, I’m really glad that we got to see the Kylie concert as who knows if she’ll ever do one again.. Cheers for now. Kind...
