Get there early!!!

I drove from Columbus, Ohio on Sunday 8/3/08 to see Radiohead. The show started at 7:30, so I left Columbus at 2:15PM & exited I-70 in Noblesville at about 5:00PM. After exiting I-70, I got lost on the country roads because Rt 238 was closed & the detour signs were nonexistent.
After asking a local for directions, I found the venue at about 5:30PM. There was no line to enter the parking lot and I got right in, no problem. I paid for PREMIER Parking & I can't say whether or not it was worth $25, but I have no regrets.
I walked up to the gates to get in line & it was packed because the gates didn't open until 6:00PM. When the gates finally opened, everyone had their bags searched & some people (including ladies) were patted down by male workers, with the backs of their hands. Every person was allowed to carry in 1 bottle of water, with caps removed & thrown away upon entering.
I had tickets for lawn seats, and the middle area filled up quickly. I decided to take a seat on left side of the stage in front of one of the screens. This was a good decision & I had a good view, especially because I packed binoculars.
At the end of the show, the crowd exited quickly. I jumped in my car, reversed out with no problem & no waiting. I don't know if the attendants allow PREMIER Parking to exit more quickly, but I was out on the road in less than 2 minutes... however, I had a tough time finding my way back to the interstate & had to stop at the gas station to ask for directions.
All in all, my advice is to leave extra early and you'll have no problem getting to the show on time. All the seats seem to have good views. The venue was actually a lot smaller than I imagined it would be. Radiohead was absolutely spectacular & their concert will go down as one of the highlights of my life.
Horrible experience at Verizon Wireless Music Center

We purchased tickets to see Taylor Swift and Rascal Flatts at Verizon Wireless Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana. My daughter is a HUGE Taylor Swift fan, and talked of nothing else for weeks. The concert was to begin at 8:00, and by 6:45 we were 3 miles from the concert. Plenty of time, right? Wrong. We sat in traffic until 9:00 to move a mere 3 miles, burning $4.00 a gallon gas, and completely missed Taylor Swift's performance. According to their website, Verizon's capacity is about 24,000 people, but yet I was told 45,000 tickets were sold. The concert was obviously WAY oversold, the staff was rude, we couldn't even find a 1 foot square of grass to stand on once we got there, they were completely sold out of their extremely overpriced water, and my daughter was heartbroken. By far my worst concert experience ever.
Great Place! Great Performances! Great Stuff!

I went to this place and it is great! No matter who the performer or what the performer, it is sure to be good. There is a big lawn for seats out there and the seats in the "lets just so say pavilion center" are good too. There are a couple of things I have to say though. One: when there is construction going on, it is a bad place to be because of the LONG waiting lines. Two: The seats under the top roof should be of more quality. Now that I think about it, they don't really need to be because most people stand up during the performance. Lastly is Three: there should be more signs to guide people. You will not get lost, but signs will be helpful. Keep in mind there are many workers to help out.
So overall, I give the Verizon Wireless Music Center a 5 star rating. If you are going here, you are sure to enjoy it from my epinion.
- Pros: There is much room, shops and comforts.
- Cons: There should be more signs, or things to guide people to the right place.

This venue is absolutely the worst I have ever been to! I spent a total of almost 4 hours getting in and out of the place which caused me to miss the first set of the show...the parking is horrible (if it rains lets hope you don't get stuck in the mud)..bathrooms are disgusting..everything is overpriced...just see whoever it is you want to see in a different city at a different venue.
- Pros: The band was great...the venue was horrible
- Cons: Parking, getting in and out of the venue
Wait in line to get ripped off!!!!

Unfortunately this is the only place in Indy to see large venus, that's why they don't care about traffic and prices. I can't wait until a new theater is built that cares about it's customers. If your expecting fair prices and a well designed amphitheater, don't go there. Not only do you have to sit in traffic for hours while entering and exiting the facility, but the restroom lines are long as well. Don't expect a good seat either, the stage is blocked by large pillars that support the pavillian. When they designed this place, they obviously did not have the customer in mind. Eventually, a developer will build a theater closer to Indy and the customer will be their main priority. Hopefully, for us fans, this will be soon.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Lines, Prices, Seating
The best place to see a concert in Indy by Kimberly Y. at InsiderPages

This is my favorite place to see concerts in Indianapolis. When the weather is nice it makes it even better. Its always fun to sit out on the lawn where you can bring a blanket and just sprawl out. Of course sitting in the actual seating area is cool as well. There really aren't any bad seats in the place. The sound is as good in the lawn as it is in the front rows. They have plenty of options for food and drink. The bathrooms can get pretty gross but that can be expected with as many people as there are at any given concert. The worst part is trying to get out of the parking lot. Make sure you bring your patience if you stay till the end of the show because it is an absolute nightmare trying to get out onto the interstate. It can take upwards of an hour.
Great Place to see a show if the weather cooperates by Tiffany S. at InsiderPages

Verizon Wireless Music Center is a great outdoor amphitheater. There is ample room to spread out, especially on the lawn if the weather cooperates. The acoustics are outstanding and the music center, despite being located in a rural area, is capable of drawing in some big name talent. Parking is adequate and is usually included in the ticket price. Vending and facilities are also adequate.
Traffic and $$$

I love music but will NEVER go to see a band at Verizon. Traffic to/from is horrible. Plus the parking fee is outragous. Once you're inside, everything is over priced ... and this place is more over priced than others.
- Pros: none, noen, none
- Cons: over priced parking, over priced drinks, over priced parking

Verizon Wireless Music Center which is also formerly known as Deere Creek is the best place for live music and events. They have the best seats in the state, they are arranged at an angel so that no matter where you are sitting it feels like your right in the front row. They also have the best lawn seats with big screen tv's that show you whats going on on-stage! It's better than being in front! The people that work at Verizon Wireless are awesome, they are so nice and generous. They go out of their way to make you feel welcome and help you to make your concert experience unforgetable. I myself have seen almost everyone of my live concerts there, that's 60 concerts ranging from Elton John and Garth Brooks to Nsync and Ozzfest! They do it all and it is always great!
- Pros: Inexpensive, great seats and space, variety of artists
- Cons: bad parking for cars, drinks can be exp.
