After going to gigs for 20+ years this has to be one of the worst music venues in the country.<br><br>• Staff are clueless when you ask directions to somewhere, they just say they dont know.<br>• The staff that do ask if you need help are then rude and sarcastic. Why ask?<br>• Seating is dire, uncomfortable, tightly packed, poor views of stage. People constantly getting up to go to the bar/smoke etc, limited views of stage continuously blocked.<br>• The door to the smoking area was left open so the place stank of smoke. My eyes were stinging.<br>• Food options very limited, queues were obscene.<br>• The mobile phone pouch protocol was not explained whatsoever.<br><br>Wont be going back here in a million years.<br>Left 20 mins early just to get the hell out of there. |

Takes the nick you live near there and change vehicles or get different work vehicles you have too phone up get permits all the time and provide evidence when you’ve lived here 30 years. Absolute joke and cbs arena can’t do anything about it. People that live close too that ground are poor can’t afford too be paying a ticket too park outside your own house. Hope they lose every game.

Great venue, makes for a fantastic expo site. Loses a star for how unfriendly the kiosk staff can be, young kids who don't seem bothered. |

Świetne miejsce do zorganizowania Kongresu. Takiego np. jak w latach 2000 organizowali tu świadkowie Jehowy. Teraz znów tu powrócono do organizacji tych zgromadzeń, gdyż są tu świetne warunki techniczne na zapleczu tego obiektu, do zorganizowania tak ludnego zgromadzenia. Jest tu pojemna hala, w której może się zmieścić nawet ok. 5 tys. osób. Jest klimatyzowana tak, że nikomu tu nie jest ani za gorąco ani za zimno. Cały obiekt na wielkich przestronnych korytarzach jest uzupełniony punktami żywnościowymi (kawiarnie, bary, restauracje), tak, że każdy znajdzie coś dla siebie. Oprócz wspaniałego programu duchowego jaki otrzyma podczas dorocznego Kongresu Świadków Jehowy.<br>W roku 2020 nie odbył się i w tym roku (2021) ze względu na pandemie, nie odbędzie się kongres, lecz taki kongres jest organizowany przez Internet. |

Went to watch Bryan Adams. The arena is situated in/under/next to the football stadium. We had seats - which are located at the back of the arena...about 3 miles back....The queue for our entrance took around an hour to get in, so we sat on wall and waited. Sound was pretty decent for a large 7000+ arena. Maybe a couple of screens in ceiling above the seating area could be a good idea? Would go again for concert. |

I've been to the ricoh stadium a few times and have always found their facilities to be of a good standard. Disabled access was very good and the disabled wheelchair access to and location in the stands was superb. The disabled toilets were located within very easy reach of the seating area. The refreshments were of a good quality, both the chicken balti pie and steak pie being very tasty and not too expensive. The beer was also well priced for such a venue. The stand out point for me was the staff all of whom were very friendly and welcoming, from the ladies in the refreshment concession outside, to the ticket collectors, to the bar staff and the other staff around the ground, all of whom made time to talk and make us feel welcome. This made for a great day out. |

A really nice Stadium to visit as an away fan, easily accessed from the M6 and well signposted.<br>There's loads of parking around the stadium but I would recommend booking in advance and getting there as early as possible to get a parking spot near the exit, its a very long wait after the game otherwise...<br>Outside the stadium there's small bars and burger vans dotted about with a limited amount of wooden benches whilst you wait for the gates to open.<br>The catering inside is good but queues can get very long .<br>The directions inside the stadium to find your seating are good and the stewards are very helpful.<br>I think its fair to say there's not a bad view inside the entire stadium...... |

A good size and quality stadium. Seats a tad small in width and leg room. Food a little more expensive that I would like. But the Tesco up the road was useful. As popped in there first. However great experience watching the Arnold Clark Cup. I would come back, just would be unlikely to buy any food inside the stadium. |

Decent stadium for the Championship although very little atmosphere and quite empty, but not any complaints other than that. View is good but the stadium doesn't have much going for it, just a run of the mill bowl stadium. |

The ‘noise’ of enjoyment made ambiance just what is expected at a football match. The stadium is small by comparison to other stadiums which adds to its charm and togetherness of fans. |

great fun completing the monster. it takes around 10 mins if you’re not running through, my partner ran and took 3 mins! super fun and quite challenging. i managed to do it 3 times within an hour slot and he continuously did it 6 times :) so varied depending on speed and how many times u have a sit down break on the benches! there was a ball pit but it didn’t look very full. could have used more directions on the entrance as we wandered around a bit (CBS arena). staff were all super friendly and fun! |

Having been to many concerts at stadiums and arenas all over, I'm really au fait with what is good and what is a bit rubbish. Up until we were leaving Car Park A after the concert, the CBS had been really good. Getting out was a disaster and primarily because it was left to the punters to sort it out. No sign of any venue or parking staff to direct and manage the exit, so it was a nightmare. It didn't spoil a great gig but I'll think twice before seeing any event there. |

What an asset to Coventry. The stadium is superb. The arrangements for getting in and out by car however are poor when such a large number of people attend what takes me 30 mins turns in to 2+ hours when there is a concert on! Next time I will use public transport. £30 for carpark......ouch! |

The Ricoh Arena is a multi-purpose stadium which hosts concerts as well as being used for football and rugby union. The Ricoh is both the home of Coventry City fc and Wasps rfc.<br>There is a train station immediately outside the ground ( Ricoh Arena ) but tends only to be used for Wasps games. For football, away fans are best getting off at Coventry station, getting a bus into town and the 4 from town to the ground.<br>Away fans are situated in the South Stand, up to 4000. Football matches at present can lack atmosphere as Coventry supporters are all in one stand. The Coventry singing end is in The Corner as near to the away fans as possible (which is actually quite far away. Having said that big matches where the ground is fuller generate a totally different atmosphere. The Ricoh Arena has a capacity of 32500 and is an all seater stadium .<br>The Wasps club shop is situated on the opposite side of the ground from the station as is the ticket office.. The Coventry City club shop is off site in the Tesco complex.<br>Parking in the official car park is expensive. The words "rip off" are frequently used. It is advisable to look for alternative solutions.<br><br>It is an impreeive arena although a bit generic as modern stadiums go, just with Sky Blue seats.<br><br>Food and drinks can be bought on the walkway around the stadium before you enter the arena at the usual inflated prices. The pies are good. Hot is an understatement. Be prepared to queue though. A book might be a good idea.<br><br>If you want half-time scores there are flat screens at regular intervals around the walkway that show Sky Sports News. These attract quite a crowd. |

Its just a great stadium that now feels like home. Book your parking before travelling, as there is a street parking exclusion zone around the area.<br>Since S**U left, there have been lots of improvements which benefit the fans.<br>The new Fanzone is great, and the artwork on the walls really makes it feel like home.<br>The Casino underneath is good for a pre game pint if the weather is rubbish.<br>Kiosks are cashless, but that seems to work well.<br>Finally a word for the fans. The atmosphere has gone through the roof in recent years. Its now one of the best in the Championship.<br>Its not Highfield Road, but its ours. PUSB! |

Saw the killers here, they where fantastic, but the stadium and everything about the organisation was pathetic, no queues just a free for all to get in, no bag checks, no stewards had a clue and just stood about, the merch stall had run out early and drinks where stupid prices, the stadium seats where pathetically small and everyone was squashed , leaving was a nightmare with 10s of thousands of people herded to avnarrow Bridge to cross the main road, again no lines just a mass surge, super dangerous, so in conclusion, never ever go to a gig at this dump !! |

No faults with the arena itself, but the parking system (or lack thereof) is a shambles.<br><br>We paid £65 for concert tickets, £75(!) for parking, and the place was gridlocked for hours when we needed to leave.<br><br>Other than that, it functioned as an arena should. No other complaints. |

CONFERENCE EVENT REVIEW ONLY<br><br>The main areas were good with great views of the stage from all seats. The temperature was kept to a steady level all day. Seats were comfortable and electronic displays were clear. The breakout rooms were great too but there were 2 major flaws that brought the rating to 3 from 5 stars.<br><br>As the conference was a largely attended event, when it came to lunch, there was insufficient tables and chairs. People were sat on the floor eating or precariously balancing a plate and trying to cut their food. Not very professional.<br><br>Secondly, you needed to get an exit ticket for the car park. Unfortunately there were only 2 machines where you could get these. When there are over 600 delegates, that's a queue at the end of the day, you don't want! Also they were at the opposite side of the stadium.<br><br>Overall, a couple of quick fixes would make this a 5 star venue. |
