Hello! Is it information on what you can and can't bring you're looking for? The city of Grand Rapids has a list of prohibited and allowable items you can bring to the Acrisure Amphitheater.

 

The concert may not last all night long, but the wait is at long last finally over. The Acrisure Amphitheater in downtown Grand Rapids is set to host its first official concert tomorrow night. The 12-thousand seat capacity space is expected to welcome over 300-thousand visitors in its first season. The venue has two main entrances, does allow blankets and lawn chairs, with certain conditions.

Pets are now allowed on site, except for service animals and animals trained to assist those with disabilities. Bags will be subject to search and medical equipment may also be further inspected. 

The Amphitheater is a cashless venue, so no concession stands or box office spot will accept cash. On credit and debit cards can be used for transactions. The venue accepts many credit cards, as well as Apple Pay, Google and Samsung Pay.

All guests must wear shirts and shoes at all times. The venue reserves the right to refuse entrance or ask a person to leave for violating that policy.

If you’d like to see a list of items that are allowable, as well as more information on the space, here is a link to the venue website Acrisure Amphitheater.
