Saw Slash and Myles Kennedy here on the 24th. Was a fantastic night. The area is awesome with all the food and bars. Easy to get to on light rail too. Winning!

Great venue. I have been coming here for various events since 1975. Up close and personal. You don't need a screen to watch artists perform unlike the mega venues.

Went here to watch Limp Bizkit. Am surprised that they have seats on the sides and at the back. Really help with us picky and short people who wants to enjoy live music but not be drowned by the tall people in the mosh pit. Sound wise it's better than Round House. Bring your concert earplugs and you'll be ready!

Venue was great and we drove in arriving an hour before doors open. Parking was good and about $16. You now pay via QR code and although my transactions never completed on screen, I could see the money was debited from my card and I was able to exit. Multiple food, drink and merch “shops”. Toilets were super clean with a friendly attendant doing a great job there 🩷 You can get as close or far from the band as you want. If you want a seat, you can get in early and snare one. There is mobility assisted area so no one misses out. Exiting the car park took a little while as usual but most drivers are very good about this. I’m happy to go to The hordern for gigs and had a great night.

Overall, it's not a great experience if you're there for a live concert. Went to the Porter Robinson concert last week. Either you were standing in the mosh pit inhaling other people's vape and weed or you were sitting on the designated seats right at the back of the venue where the sound system weren't tuned properly. My ears actually hurt listening to the music. Especially the high notes sounded very screechy. Overall, it's not a great experience, and will avoid this venue in the future.
