Pearl Concert Theater At Palms Casino Resort

Really great little venue. Saw two nights of Eddie Vedder here — there really isn’t a bad seat in the place.

Excellent! Every seat in here is awesome! We had box seats so view was great. Always great bands at the venue!

Went to see Russel Peters here, he was AMAZING!!! I really like the venue because it’s not too big. Makes for a more up close and intimate experience. He was right in our faces. He was so good, and we had so much fun. We laughed till our tummies hurt.

I went to see Mark Knopfler last fall at the Pearl, and had front row seating. It was completely cool. The sound quality, perfect. So if you are one of us who are particular about what your hearing at your concerts, then this is a good choice for venue. I have worked with sound crews and run sound before for local bands back east, and knew that the Pearl was built specifically to be a theater where artists have perfect acoustics and the option to record a «live» album (cd), that’s why it is tall and shallow.
That is also why the staff are picky about what people bring in, some electronics can interfere with the house sound or video and could cause a real problem. They did let us record with phones though, so not too bad. Great place.

Small theater, sat on the floor seats (which are chairs), possibly 3^rd row to watch Russell Peters. I mean I did not have to be so close for a comedian, since it wasn’t a performance but whatever I chose what I chose. If it was a concert, I could have bought regular stadium seating, up on top because it was small enough to see all around. Also, huge TV screens to view the stage. They have these awesome balcony seating that you can easily see the stage as well. Im not sure if they would hold a concert if the performer wanted to «dance» across the stage, it’s quite small now that I think about it, but maybe a guitar performer only? Small concert setting.

Last Sunday, for a Russell Peters comedy show was my very first time being in this theater and I must say of all the concert/​theater venues I have been to in Vegas this is my least favorite. This place is a letdown compared to the Chelsea or the Joint. The lay out is okay but my biggest gripe is the lack of personal space. If I’m going to shell out my hard earned money I would expect to be comfortable while I’m watching. This was not the case here, the seats are too close to each other that as my husband puts it, felt like I was sitting on his lap and the person next to him attached to him as well lol. By no means am I a tall girl but I totally agree that there was no leg room to stretch and whenever I’d do so my shin would hit the drink holder. It got pretty annoying. The whole time I kept squirming in my seat trying to get comfortable while fully aware not to invade my neighbors space which was pretty hard in itself because I was sitting next to someone taller and larger. Of course when somebody wanted to go to the restroom for example, the entire row had to get up which obstructs everyone’s view.
Fortunately that wasn’t the case for us but thus was for the row below us which I knew a lot of them weren’t too happy about judging by the groans and head shaking that was going on lol. Ohhh boy I can just imagine how it would be if you sat next to someone that has BO or bad breath, that would be a death sentence.
We got great seats, sat on section 203 which is on the mezzanine, the middle section so you could see and hear everything perfectly but with the venue being small I don’t think there’s really a bad seat in the house anyway. I do like the fact that the cocktail servers were on their A game, coming by frequently making sure that everyone had their fill on drinks. It didn’t bother me as much as I very much enjoyed the show, Russell Peters is hilarious!!! I don’t know if I would want to go back to this venue though, leaving the theater was a mad house! We were like cattle being herded. There has to be a better, more organized way to do that. It’s a disaster waiting to happen.

It is the ONLY reason to visit the Palms anymore. I have seen numerous excellent acts in the last few years: Ringo, Cheap Trick, Pat Benatar, Steely Dan etc. The Sound Quality is very Good and there is not a bad seat in the house.
I would avoid the Floor seats though. I guarantee someone who is 6ft+ will be in front of you. Also I don’t need to see people «Dancing» (or attempting to) they will block your view of the Band.

We went to show here and I can honestly say that to date this is the worst casino theater I have been to. The seats are cramped and uncomfortable. The staff are unfriendly and they are anal about bag checking to the point of rediculousness. All I had with me was a phone case with a strap and the door man wanted to check that (did he think I had a thimble full of vodka in there?) They won’t let you take photos which is rediculous in this cellphone day and age. All the other productions on the strip have no problem with this at all.
I am going to have to *really* want to see a show there to ever go back!

One of my very favorite venues in town to see a show.
I have been seated in just about every section of the theater over the years for various events from concert to boxing and I have to say every seat has had an excellent view of the action while maintaining great acoustics.
The theater is large without being too large to enjoy whatever show you are there for. I have to admit the theater often plays a big role when I’m on the fence about purchasing tickets and when I see that it’s at the Pearl I’m more inclined to go.

Attended our first show at this venue on 11÷28÷14. Immediately prior to entry, we each purchased a 12 oz bottle of beer in the casino. «Security» at the door to the Theater sez, «You can’t bring those in here.» Fair enough (even though they likely sell the exact same product inside…)…we finish them outside the entrance and try again. This time «Security» takes issue with a bottle of water, also purchased within the casino: «We need to open that bottle and keep the cap, as you might throw it on the stage.» Apparently it would have been A-​OK in the Gestapo’s eyes to throw an entire topless bottle of water on the stage, but I digress.
Acoustics were fine. Employees within were fine. For the issues above, Pearl Theater, you kind of suck.

Saw Erasure Halloween night 2014, amazing show sound was excellent and the visuals were awesome! They played a ton of hits from the past and from there new album the violet flame was killer… Great bars located in various locations made it convenient to buy drinks all night long, Andy Bell and Vince Clarke formerly of Depeche Mode was amazing to say the least, This is a great location to watch a show and Ghostbar up stairs on there roof was even better at the palms hotel, great hotel to stay play and party at

Venue: Pearl Concert Theater At Palms Casino
Décor: Concert Style, Multi Use
Service: Ok… Not great. nor Bad
Environment: Concerts, Performances
Food: N/​A (couldn’t speak on it)
Prices: Not bad. Not over the top.
Debbie Downers: Some of the areas of seating has a bad line of sight.
Conclusion: The Pearl Concert Theater is an entertainment venue in the Palms Casino. I thought the sound system was excellent. I believed the seating was comfortable. I attended a boxing bout here. It was peaceful, not too rowdy although I believe it doesn’t seem like the best venue for that sport. However with a decent stage area, I’m sure there are excellent concerts performed here. It is intimate and easily accessible on foot within the Pearl Casino.
Overall: B

We saw Los Lonely Boys & the unbelievable Kenny Wayne Shephard here 8÷1÷14.
Small intimate theatre, great place if you get to see your favorite act here.
We were in the 2^nd row, the floor seating on the left.
The acoustics down here left alot to be desired. In particular, the first act (pushed up closer to the stage edge) H. Garzas guitar amps were not shielded by plexi-​glas, and dominated everything — although i am a guitar player and LOVED his fantastic talent!, we couldnt hear much else. Kenny Wayne shielded his guitar amps, which were further back, with plexi and we got a more balanced sound. I think the rest of the house gets a great mix from what I read of other reviewers.
The seats, well thats my big complaint. Fold down metal chairs, granted with a decent 3 inch cushion, rigidly attached to each other WITH NO SPACING, might be comfortable for a scrawny 18YO 130lb kid; but an average adult (I’m 180lb) cannot squeeze in here without significant contact to your neighbors — i sat with my hands and knees scrunched together and left the show in a fair amount of pain. The Higher tier seats looked to have at least armrests.
The floor seats cannot see the spectacular HD video, either. Oh yeah, boo-​hoo, front row crybaby :) oft times they did scamper over to the other side of the stage so it would be NICE to see the screen.
Sky high prices on drinks ($ 8 I think for a 16oz bottle of water!), and you cannot bring anything in with you (by comparison, MGM Garden Arena allows you to enter with your drink in hand as long as its in a plastic cup).
Although the regs say no cameras, i did have a point-​shoot camera with the flash turned off, with no grief given — modern cell phones take incredible, better pics anyway and these were blazing away with no problem. However, photos with an IPAD will draw heat, so leave that at home or closed.
Staff was courteous and professional. Theatre was clean.
My experience here is probably a 3star, but it sounds like other revieweres have great experiences if you’re not in a metal chair nightmare seat, so I’ll go 4 here. Next time (ya i’m DEFINITELY coming back) we’ll sit up higher.

Very awesome music venue! Although it’s a relatively big theater, the view is awesome at all levels, and the sound and acoustics are great as well. Just as good was the fact that the bouncers weren’t a bunch of d*ckheads like you see at other venues.
Just please don’t be an idiot and spill your drink all over other people if you’re going to be in the pit area. Drink your f*cking drink when you buy it, then head back to the floor.

It’s a great theater for shows and events! I’ve been here on multiple locations. From floor seats, second level and balcony, it’s a pretty good view from all standpoints.
The venue isn’t huge like many of the arenas at the other casinos but it is a fair size. Their sound system is also pretty great. It’s crisp and clear. Plus you don’t get the echo from the entertainers which can sometimes be an annoyance.
Ushers here have been very friendly and helpful. Always smiling and pleasant! There are also waitresses walking around the floor level so you don’t have to leave the entertainment to refill! Nice!
Enjoy the show!

First time at this venue for Styx. My balcony seat offered a nice view and was not crowded, which is just how I like my concert seating!
This stadium style venue is first class, with great sound and pretty comfortable seating. The show started about 20 minutes late (hate that) which may be the standard for shows here, I’m not sure. I would return if the price is right, and this is a unique venue with a good location at The Palms!

Came a couple months ago to see Straight No Chaser during a 2 pm Saturday show. Want to get an awesome seat? Come to an obscure a capella concert at 2 pm on a Saturday! LOL But seriously…
Since attendance was low, the ushers were awesome enough to move everyone into closer seats for free. Awesome! I do not recommend paying more to have floor seating — everyone down there was on one level in folding chairs and seemed to be craning their necks the whole time. The mezzanine seating is tiered, we had no one around us, and it was awesome. Almost felt like we had the show to ourselves. :-)
Very friendly service, extremely clean bathrooms, and a great view from where we were (and we always buy the cheapest tickets). I would definitely return to this venue in the future!

What can I say… when something is so good, you just want to recreate the experience. So when we found out DEPECHE MODE was playing again at Pearl, we immediately got our tickets & booked our flights
One might even say — we «Just Can’t Get Enough»
This venue was just as awesome as the last time we were here — seats allowed for perfect views (that is, until the guy in front of us decided it was a great idea to continually wave his arms back & forth)
The sound was still perfect, the video display behind the band was crystal clear & needless to say, the show was phenomenal!
Can’t wait to come back for another world class band in such an intimate venue!

Hands down, this is THE best place to see a concert in Las Vegas, period. The venue size is perfect (max’s out at 2,500 people) and the acoustics are great. Not a bad seat in the house. I’ve seen several shows here over the years including The Cure, NIN, Eddie Vedder, A Perfect Circle, TOOL and Lady Gaga (ok just kidding about the Gaga) and last night How To Destroy Angels and upcoming will be Depeche Mode. The event staff are always nice, even those pesky ushers who try to keep you in your seat. I’m usually on the floor for every show but even one time when I was on the seated level I wanted to move for a better view… no problemo and they even let me down to the floor anyway.
I don’t know what else to say… if you like concerts and a band you are into is playing here, GO! This venue beats anywhere in town. Drinks are about half of the price of HOB as well. Beer was 8 bucks, and I usually pay 12 – 14 at HOB.

This is a pretty nice looking venue but I found the seats to be very uncomfortable. They were not well padded and don’t give you much elbow room. If you are a larger person such as the hubby and myself, you’ll have a hard time squeezing your backside in between the armrests. At least the aisles were wide enough that people could get to their seats without stepping on everyones toes and the cocktail servers could get around to serve drinks. Not sure if they offer that for concerts but they did at the comedy show we went to.
The top tier was closed when we went so we were in the furthest back section (but still center) and yet the view was great. They also have a couple of huge screens in case you really want to see a close up of the performer.
