![]() This arena has a lot of potential to be great, but until they start enforcing rules and completely redo their menus and expand options to eat, we won’t be back.Capital One Arena is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Washington, D.C. I tried the “pizza cupcakes” that I’d hoped would be better, but was just as bad. I got a brisket sandwich with some fried onions on it, they gave me about 3-4 small fried onions and the sandwich was crap. Because even though they stopped this time, what’s to stop them at future games? Horrible. This was a serious mishandling of the situation as this entire group should have been thrown out! Any other group with younger kids that are non smokers would likely agree here. ![]() It to the security staff nearby and all they did was come over and warn them not to do it again. Where the experience goes sour is the fact we had 4 younger guppies in front of us who had snuck in either an e-cig or vape pens and were actually sneaking puffs and smoking them! I reported. They also have a good policy to give free refills on souvenir cups, (not sure if they’ve done that all year though). The seats themselves were very comfortable to sit in along with decent legroom and a good view. I felt robbed without the use of a weapon. I wish I knew who the promoter’s name was so I could inform fans to never show them support. Needless to say I will never go back to Capital One Arena for a concert. I wanted to give my wife a birthday gift because she had never seen Mary J Blige in concert and this was her experience. We never received any explanation or apologies for the lateness or why one of the acts were a no show. The sound was terrible and the acoustics were bouncing all over the place and it appeared that Mary J Blige was sick, possibly congested. Hardcore fans were upset stating this was the worse experience ever seeing Mary J Blige. My wife stayed inside until 11:20pm as she was upset as well stating she was bored and will never want to see Mary J Blige ever again. I left at 10:45 because parking reservations were ending at 11pm. Fans were singing basically now this is a sing a long concert. It’s 10:05pm and most of the fans tried giving Mary the benefit of the doubt however, 4 songs in and she wasn’t even trying to sing. Took additional 1 hour to setup for Mary J Blige. ![]() Queen Naja came on a little after 8pm did about 8 songs. Imagine fans getting really upset at this point. Promotion says that the concert was to start at 7pm. ![]() Once inside we couldn’t sit down until 7:45pm. First off, we couldn’t get into the arena until 6:40pm. Went to see Mary J Blige at Capital One Arena and my experience was horrible. It would be nice if they did not sell tickets to those that do not have good sound quality. Not impressed with the venue for a concert - at least not in the upper section but maybe it wasn't as bad below. Very unfortunate that tickets are even sold for these seats when the qualilty is so poor.Īnd due to the lights and such there was limited visibility to see the screen behind the main stage and from my seat we could not see the small screens on the side of the main screen. People around us made jokes as to it was more like watching Charlie Brown and the teacher say,"." But were also quite disappointed and just left. I seriously wish I had brought air pods as to play the song in them as they sang so that I could at least get somewhat of a concert that sounded right. However, my daughter had been looking forward to this concert so we stayed. After Jimmie Allen started and we could understand nothing I was ready to leave. I hoped it was just a flaw when the DJ was trying to entertain before show started. Mind you we were in section 415 but were unable to understand anything they were saying or most of the words to the song. We attended the Jimmie Allen and Carrie Underwood concert. The low review is because the sound quality was so poor. However, once the venue opened the lined moved quickly and staff was prepared to get people safely through security rapidly. We were concerned when we realized the line was so long and we were blocks away from entering and we got to venue almost an hour early. We had a decent experience as far as getting in.
