Mabee Center — Attraction in Tulsa

Attended a concert last week & we were disappointed with the sound quality in the venue! We were straining to hear at certain points, which is something I'd not expect to do at a concert. Also, per the photo, it felt like we were looking through a rectangular window and were unable to see the majority of visuals for the show. The ceiling seemed to come down unnecessarily low. All the Mabee center staff were kind & the arena was tidy but the venue needs a renovation to really support good concert sound from all seats.

Another issue was when I purchased tickets on the mabee center website, the seating map was flipped when it came time to choose our seats, so I expected to be in the first row of the top section, but we were in the very last row of the top section. This could have been avoided by me having more careful attention, but the arena map ws oriented one way, and the sections were oriented the opposite way when going to select the seats. This could be an easy fix on the mabee center's part. Or at least to have a label saying "stage" when purchasing for a concert on the seat selection page.

Lastly, the sound absorbing walls in this arena do almost too good of a job. We were surrounded with a wall behind us and to the left of our seats (that was the length of about five rows going back)- this and the lack of ability for the sound to travel into the little nook it felt like we were sitting in made the show less than desirable. I would not go to a concert if we had to sit anywhere in the top section of this...

Showed up 45 minutes before the show and didn’t get to my seat until 1:15 hr later. Show already started. Found our seat in the dark. Mercy me concert was good but event staff lousy. Our first time their. No ushers to assist with seating. Didn’t see any outside signage directing someone to correct entry side of building and obviously understaffed for the event with few law inforcement for security check. Hey. If you let someone into the building unchecked where thousand are it’s too late. Should be checked at door before entry. How lame. If this was a secular event vs a Christian I would say it could of got real ugly. Too Many people waiting for too long in tight spot. Been to many events, never this bad of...

Came here for the Roadshow. Enjoyed the show and thought that it's a pretty good size venue just wish there were better concessions. The folks were just way too slow and were out of just about everything. No signs to even say they were out so stood in line for about 30 mins to be to ld that they pretty much had nothing so paid for 2 very over priced waters (was the 3rd option since they were out of other drinks listed) and unfortunately no food. Just go for the shows and maybe merchandise from whoever is playing and don't worry about trying to get anything to...
