Bert L & Iris S Wolstein Center

The place was nice for the Robotics Competition that was by FIRST. The food was overpriced, they had a bathroom big enough for my handicap mom to use with her scooter, staff was nice and when we were about to leave, we got a citation because it was a PAID handicap spot. Have to pay $ 20 for the day. Did not think we had to pay for the spot, but I guess we had to, we did not see that there was a sign telling us. This is the first year this happened because the last two years this did not happen. Mad of this.

I’ve been here before. I came here back in 2012 when my younger brother graduated from CSU (Cleveland State University) on 5÷12÷12. It’s a nice arena even though it used to be called CSU Convocation Center.

A group of us went here for a comedy show with Mike Epps, Eddie Griffin, Cedric the Entertainer, DL Hughley, George Lopez, & Charlie Murphy (Black & Brown Comedy Get Down), which was simply hilarious! Traffic coming into the venue was a crawl so definitely give yourself extra time to park. The venue itself is a nice size that seats a lot but it’s small enough that almost every seat has a good view. Seats are comfy, lots of restrooms, and halls are large so clearing out goes quickly. Overall, a pretty good venue to see a show.

I love to take my kids here for concerts! Always good prices, restrooms are clean, ushers are helpful; however, the food vendors are horrific.

Great and inexpensive venue for college basketball. If Clevelanders ever stop brainlessly worshipping at the Ohio State altar and notice our very own D-​1 team, it might get a bit crowded. Until then, however, you can enjoy easy access, comfy seats and a quality Viking team all to yourself. Definite bonus points for serving beer, which is a rarity at college games.

I LOVE it here! You can save at least $ 100 buying «nose bleed» tickets for a show but because the Wolstein is much smaller than the Q, any seat is a good seat!!! And if the show does not sell out you can usually upgrade your «nose bleed» ticket for a better section ticket for free!

Went to the CSU graduation here and it was a nice ceremony. lots of seating and plenty of bathrooms. I would live to come back for a concert and see what the setup is like.

I recently participated in an event at the Wolstein Center and have to say I was a little underwhelmed. The Wolstein Center was the setting for the 2^nd Annual Jumpstart NEO Entrepreneurs Conference and the facilities were definitely lacking. Crappy bathrooms with no privacy and that lingering «gym» smell did not make for a great experience, Maybe I’m being picky with the gym smell but it was god awful. Hope to not have to go back anytime soon.

Neil Young and Crazy Horse. Good to see the old farts shred. I thought van halen took a long time to finish a song. These guys ended one with 15 minutes of feedback. That is not a typo or an exaggeration.
The whole show seemed to take place inside of a bong. I’m glad I don’t get tested for work.

Roomy arena with plenty of entry points, decent sight lines throughout it, slim concessions, saw Cirque du Soleil here, and we had mid level seats.

Nice facility … Easy to see … Average food

Cleveland State is my soon-​to-​be alma mater and even though I have been going here for the last two years I had never been to a basketball game. I was lucky to get some tickets from a friend for the men’s basketball games on both Thursday and Saturday. I had a blast. I actually had more fun at these games then at a Cavs games. The atmosphere was exciting and family friendly. I quickly became friends with everyone seated around me and almost everyone was a relative or had a connection to one of the players and were encouraging them the whole game. It was a blast talking to everyone. The pep band was great and the cheerleaders and dance team helped rile up the crowd.
The concession stand had limited options but the prices were cheaper than most. My friend said her soft pretzel was one of the worst she’s ever had though. I liked my chicago dog but the «homemade chips» that came with it were pretty bad. They sell beer. That’s a plus.
Saturday’s game vs. Butler was the first sold out game in CSU history. Even though we lost it was great to see such a big crowd coming to cheer the men’s team on. I definitely will come to more games in the future for some cheap fun!

Went to my first CSU basketball game at the Wolstein Center last night and had an amazing time! I’m pretty apathetic about sports, but there was so much going on between the dance team, mascot, pep band, and random contests during the time outs that I didn’t completely lose interest in the game. Tickets range from $ 10 to $ 15, and my $ 15 ticket got me 6 rows away from the court.
Another nice perk for CSU games is this thing they have called Hoopy Hour. For two hours before the game starts, draft beer is $ 2 and they offer a selection of $ 2 food — things like popcorn, pretzels, etc. Stuff you’d generally pay a lot more for at any other sporting venue! We happened to luck out and were given 3 free drinks tickets (each!) by one of the sponsors. Not sure how many people got those tickets, but it seemed like no one had to pay for beer!
Overall, this was a great way to spend an evening — food, fun, supporting my alma mater, and a winning team? Score!
