Large amphitheater with plenty of restrooms and the lines were not too bad. The alcohol prices are outrageous even compared to many Chicago venues, but great time.

Here are some actual tips 1) Give yourself at least 1 1/2 hours to park and get in to the venue. 2) They will check you bags, pockets, boots , and sunscreen for drugs and alcohol .

Austin Westermann

This is a perfect venue for a concert on a beautiful summer night. Make sure you remember where you parked your car, finding it afterwards can be a pain

John Hankus

Good place for a concert in the south suburbs. Get there early for free parking or else you will be stuck in traffic . Bring a blanket for the lawn seats as the grass can get chewed up after rain.

Heather

Alcoholic beverages selection was great ! Many to choose from whatever you prefer ???? ???? ???? I got the Strawberry Vodka lemonade . Refills too!

Gigi Coscioni

The concert was so awesome and the set was very cool.

Desiree D

Here are some actual tips 5) Alcohol is is around $15 for tallboys 6) You can bring a sealed water bottle (sometimes they make you twist the cap off)

Don Demick

When your ticket says obstructed view , you might not be able to see a good chunk of the stage. The posts in the reserved seating are huge.

James Pierce

The venue is HUGE! Vans Warped Tour has a good mix of rock-esque genres! Lots to listen to for every one. Food here is damn expensive though! 6 bucks for fries !!?!? Crazy.

Experience

Seat upgrades and exclusive VIP experiences are now available at First Midwest Bank Amp. Upgrading is fast, easy, and fun! Just visit https://livenation.expapp.com from your iPhone or Android.

Stefanie

Awesome venue for summer shows. Worth the drive outside of the city !

Desiree D

Here are some actual tips 3) You may smoke cigarette or cigar at lawn seating . 4) Food is generously portioned and will run you about $15.00.

Emma Webb

Even if you have lawn seats it's great!! No matter where you are you can see the stage fairly well !!

Conrad Kite

Came from Milwaukee to see Matchbox 20 and was impressed with the venue. It’s like a mini-Summerfest grounds.

Nick Barella

Cool venue hard to get to and hard to see from lawn

Jennifer Capriotti

took over an hour with the idiots they have working traffic .Came across a NEW place to park . Across from entrance 4 on Oak Park Ave,large parking lot and cost $15 to park and I was able to tailgate .

Cyndi Holman

"$250 fine of caught tailgating . It's a city ordinance". Tailgating also is sitting in your car drinking water to avoid the heat and waiting for gates to open. Thumbs down.

Jason X

Formerly Tinley Park and a bunch of other names. There are some decent outdoor venues and this isn't one of them. Don't come here to see any bands unless you cannot see them anywhere else.

Mollz B

Lawn seats are the best! Get there early and relax! Best concert venue iv been too in years!

Sherri Ramponi-Waldvogel

Even though they don't let you tailgate and chase you out of your car, get there early, and or you will miss part of the show with the terrible parking system.

Andy

Sound quality sucks here. Do your hearing and your enjoyment a favor and bring a good pair of musicians ear plugs with you. Evens the sound out nicely and won't leave you deaf. Plenty online for 10-20

Maggie R.

Bring a blanket to sit on the lawn. Great sound, even back there!

Collins Ezeanyim

This venue kind of sucks. It's way out of the way from Chicago proper and with few exceptions the staff doesn't seem to know what they're doing. Only recommended if you MUST see the act playing.

Justine

This place is overly intense about rules. Open your water bottles in front of security and give them the bottle cap, food has to be in zip lock baggies, no umbrellas, no chairs, and you get pat down.

Wiz Khalifa

we right next door to a golf course . Roll up some green while your ball rolls up on the green

Digital Tour Bus

If you don't mind standing, try to get general admission tickets because it is the only sure fire way to get close to the stage!

Maribeth Hearn

The VIP area here is really great. This is the way to go!

Sheri Carbone

The staff is very helpful and friendly .

VH1

Tickets for upcoming shows are on sale today only! Look for the roaming ticket sellers in the plazas for your chance to get great deals on great upcoming shows! – Team Live Nation

Mike Filby

Don't chug a gallon of vodka with 3 of your buddies in the parking lot thinking you will avoid paying for alcohol inside. You will only be seeing the medical office and/or the security office .

Madhu Vulimiri

I would recommend bringing snacks so you don't have to wait in line for overpriced bar food.

Donna Jean

Wear good shoes . The parking lot sucks balls. You have to walk through chunky rocks to get to the gates. Gah. >,<

Jenny Hart

Expensive drinks!! And the off main stage was not ideal. Main stage was great!!

Melissa Rosendahl

Go to first Midwest Bank Ampthiteatre see a great concert , enjoy some great rock and roll and try a delicous frozen margarita

Mac Miller

damn this venue is huge. oh, and they got Deep Dish Pizza out here too...Tinley Park style

Bert Pluska

Parking lot needs more location markers - concession prices are ridiculously high and service is painfully slow. Seating is good.

Michelle Vrkljan

Amazing place for concerts .

Rostrum Records

Enormously awesome venue for a non-festival type of show

Nathan Nommensen

The band I saw (Radiohead) was great, but the rest of the experience was bad. Traffic is a nightmare and you had to move immediately into the venue after you park . No tailgating ! (Tinley Park law)

Allison Kaminski

Not the best sound, but large performers keep coming here so I have to go!

Nick Fruendt

Lawn seats are a fun time!

Maura Carroll

Not a lot of shelter from the elements but still a good time

Shelley VanWitzenburg

Aldean baby!

Maurissa M

Good beer but sooo expensive !

yunita setyawan

Sound quality sucks here. Do your hearing and your enjoyment a favor and bring a good pair of musicians ear plugs with you.

Amanda Petrigala

Traffic is awful when leaving. Seriously be ready to wait for awhile to get out of the parking lot when you leave! I've never sat in my car so long to get out of an event after it was over.

Zach

Good shows, parking is awful.
