Mannheim Steamroller Christmas Tickets

Every year I look forward to spending an afternoon with one of the best music groups playing their rendition of the songs of Christmas. It is not the normal arrangement you can hear on the radio, but an amazing composition that leaves you wanting more. As usual they did not disappoint. It is not just the flawless music they produce, but the excitement and enthusiasm in which they play.

The music, light show, and visual graphics were excellent . The condition of the theater itself was far below what I would have expected for this quality performance. Cables down the main corridor held down with yellow tape, Really!!! The seats were disgusting, looked like they haven’t been cleaned in decades and multiple seats (mine included) had large holes worn in them. Very, very disappointing for the money spent . Only time I’ll go back to this theatre is after its headline states, “Newly renovated”

The show was everything that we had hoped for. We have always enjoyed there music. But seeing them in person is something that we have always talked about. We were not disappointed.

Totally unexpected. Great sound, musicianship, composition, light show, staging effects, and overall great satisfaction!

We have seen Mannheim Steamroller at least three times or more. They are fabulous. We took neighbors with us and they loved it too. Very talented performers. Can't wait till next time!

Go see them, you won't regret it We were also impressed with the parking and safety of the San Diego Civic Center..

Wonderful music by talented musicians! Video streaming in background was vintage only, so I didn't expect that, but it was nostalgic and personal, and lights were well-coordinated with sound.

While it wasn't as loud and as Extraordinary, as many of the other events I have enjoyed; however this unique music holds your attention. Often mixing more than one song with another it brings back memories of many wonderful holidays.

I went into this show excited to see it for the first time. We ended up leaving at intermission though because it was terrible. The videos played behind the screen were so old and need some serious updating. The musicians could play well and did a great job playing but they were so into themselves they didn’t do much engaging with the audience. It needs a lot of updating. I spent over $100 a ticket for this and it was a waste of money and time.

It was very beautiful and festive, loved it, love the lively moments of the performances

Weak performance more like a high school band than what I expected. No depth, lots of shrill recorder and flute, not much percussion. No power or vigor, lackluster, sleepy performance. The musicians seemed as tired of it as we were.

Appreciated the talent of the musicians but wish there was more variety in the production. Would have enjoyed listening to more featured performances from individual musicians. Backdrop was distracting at times, and lighting effects not pleasing for the eyes. Left somewhat disappointed.

My wife and I love this show. We go every year. This year I took my family. There were 10 of us. This was the first time seeing the show at the San Diego Civic Center Theater. Have to say it was somewhat disappointing. We had seats in the second row stage. Normally great seats. Not so in this theater. Those of us on the left had bright laser lights that kept flashing in our eyes. The sound was muted and the view was not the best. There is a point in the show where fake snow falls during the song. It is always a surprise and I made sure out two youngest were seated in the center so the snow would fall on them, as it has in every other performance. This theater effect was disappointing. The effect barely reached the end of the stage. I will say the view and sound were better in the center seats. But it still seemed the band was cramped and there was just not enough room. Having seen this show at a number of other venues I would travel the extra distance to see the show, rather than going back to this theater. All that being said, my family had a wonderful time as they had not seen the show at other venues. So, absolutely see this great show, but if you have an choice of venues, go there.

Mannheim Steamroller is always fantastic! We look forward to the Christmas concerts every year to kick off our celebrations!

I really enjoyed the pictures behind the band. The music was unbelievable!!!! The light show was unexpected! Highly recommend this show to anyone who would like a truly enjoyable show!!

Extremely talented musicians!! Loved the music and the presentation of each musician with their spotlight then to include others in the number. The way the music flowed with the projection display was impressive. Would definitely see them again!!!

My wife and I saw the Mannheim Steamroller Christmas and it was very good. The entire group of musicians are amazing! I highly recommend the Mannheim Steamroller Christmas show.

Although we wish that I had selected a few rows higher (railing blocked part of view, my bad) my Sister and I enjoyed the music and the background enhancements. We are both very happy we went, and are still talking about it several weeks later 😁

Great concert. Very entertaining. The videos were odd from time to time. Great to watch them perfrom and see what outstanding musicians they are.

Venue, people working at the Venue and the music were all fantastic.
