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.
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.
We went and saw Star Wars: A New Hope with the Minnesota Orchestra and it was fantastic. It was such a nostalgic trip getting to hear those iconic songs and sounds happening live as we watched the film.
It was a great atmosphere and they also served refreshments before the show and during intermission. Refreshments included beer, wine, specialty cocktails, snacks and even a booth for Star Wars merchandise.
Definitely would recommend going and seeing a show here, you won’t forget it!
Beautiful experience! Highly recommend attending a show with loved ones. Friendly staff and warm atmosphere. Surprisingly comfortable seats. The only negative is that the men’s restroom is on the bottom floor and kind of an inconvenience if you’re in the balcony like we were.
Saw Star Wars on the big screen while the Orchestra played the score. Simply awesome. Not a bad seat in the house. Staff was excellent and very friendly, definitely the value received was more than I anticipated.
This building is not very big. It’s very easy to navigate. There’s a skyway entrance on top and two entrances. One off of Marquette and one off of 12th Street
It has a plaza that offers music. It has water fountains and a great skyline at night. WCC news is right across the street. You can see that from a ways which is always lit up in red
This has elevators on every level. So easy to get in out of it has a escalator. It is a very eye-pleasing place to be.
It has bathrooms on many levels. It has two bars. It has snacks and tons of tables to sit at throughout the venue
This is one of the best venues that is a secret in Minneapolis that many people do not go to or know about. Highly recommend everybody to check this place out

The movie series presented by Orchestra Hall is amazing. The orchestra plays the movie score, as the movie plays on a huge screen above them. It’s like being at the drive-in movie with an orchestra sitting next to you. For me, it changed the dynamic of the theater experience 10 fold. I saw Hocus Pocus, and I can’t wait until they bring back Star Wars!!
The John Denver concert was incredible! Seeing three of the old band members still in action and still having great skills! This was a celebration of John Denver and also some movies from his family’s library. We definitely want to go to this every year. Here’s you, John Denver you are sorely missed.
