No complaints about Wolf Trap which is a great venue; If you are heading to Wolf Trap in the future, please be aware of The Fermented Pig policies before ordering. I placed a picnic order for a concert which got cancelled; they took all the money and are not offering refunds saying they have no control over the performers. This policy is not clear (might not even be) on their website/facebook.

Out & About Festival at @wolf_trap truly was a blast!! Being able to vibe with fellow LGBTQ+ members and celebrating Pride Month is what makes this community amazing Having @brandicarlile as the headliner, she had the crowd smiling and singing along!

Wolf Trap, or as the great Brandi Carlile calls it, the "Red Rocks of the East", is simply one of the best concert venues in America. This place is so well run with tons of friendly staff and you're able to bring in your own food and drink (including alcohol) if you have lawn seating. Lastly the acoustics from anywhere in the Filene Center (Wolf Trap's main stage) are impeccable. I'll tell you, there is nothing better in the summer than going to see a show at Wolf Trap and laying down on a blanket on the lawn with the moon and stars above you. Parking is a pretty easy in and out too. Just go-you'll love it.

I was surprised by this place. I've lived in VA for 10 years and never went here. We arrived for a Charlie Puth concert. WE brought our own food and sat at one of the picnic tables. They had plenty of places to sit, and we ate before the show. The park is beautiful and there weren't a lot of bugs around and everything is well maintained. Once you get through the gates, the lawn is very crowded and it's a little hard to navigate down to the covered Pavillion if you're unsure where you're going but they had plenty of staff helping. Everyone was so nice, and before the show started, they passed out earplugs to anyone who wanted them. The incline is great, so no matter where you sit, you can see the stage. I'd definitely come back to see a show here.

Love the venue and acoustics are reasonably good for an amphitheater / outdoor venue. Parking is typically challenging. The issue we had most recently is ticket ordering off the website. Difficult to navigate and order using a MacBook and Safari v16.4. Otherwise love it!

Did you know that Wolf Trap is the only national park dedicated to the performing arts? And there is something for everyone! Adults can pick from the main Wolf Trap stage or the smaller Barns stage, while kids can enjoy the Theatre in the Woods or one of the camp programs. There's even hikes in the woods if you want to just enjoy the outdoors on these spacious grounds. And I more recently found a lovely fenced flower garden that my toddlers enjoyed running around for a good hour. I've personally enjoyed the main Wolf Trap stage as an adult. I know they have assigned seating but i actually prefer the lawn seating so you can easily enjoy a picnic with friends. With my kids, I've recently discovered the Theatre in the Woods. They had a lot of options on weekend mornings but we opted for a magic show performed by a magician from NYC - he was good! Actually the show was sold out! I can't say enough good things about Wolf Trap - It's actually overwhelming trying to write a review summarizing Wolf Trap because it has so much to offer!

Saw a classic rock and roll show for $37 lawn tix. Can't beat that! Tips- if going in a group, always good to have someone line up early and save a spot. Bring a blanket and a backjack type chair (the kind that sits flat on the ground and provides back support). Snacks + drinks are welcome, lots of vantages to see the stage and televised closeups. We took the shuttle from the parking lot since we had lots to carry. It's an open air hop on /off - like at the airport. Very short wait. At end of show, parking lot emptied quickly - the staff are great at directing flow. Well done Wolf Trap!

I visited Wolf Trap for the first time yesterday, and it was such a beautiful venue! The architecture of the space itself is remarkable, but so is the maintenance of the space and the friendliness of staff. While I had purchased seats in the orchestra, the grass areas were so lovely and offered such a wonderful view, I was nearly tempted to swap spots!

Excellent performance venue in a beautiful, easily accessible location. Lawn tickets are great if you want to enjoy the show while bringing your own food and drinks (including alcohol!!). The views are good as far as "lawn" experiences usually go, as the venue is small enough to still see the performance on stage fairly well from anywhere. Live screens are placed nicely along the back of the seated section at a great height for viewing the action on the stage, which are nice to have and very well placed for view from most if not all lawn seats. If you really love who you're seeing and want to feel the live in person concert experience of seeing the artist up close, and having a good view of everything else that's going on onstage, then the seated tickets are typically the way to go. The views from the orchestra are obviously the best for close up, though we actually like the first few rows of the rear orchestra section the best if we can get them. Especially the ones in the very front of the center section (rows AA - CC). Those close to the center from AA - EE or so on the left and right sections are also solid. They're great views and usually slightly cheaper than the front orchestra. And elevated a bit more which can make them better than the back of the front orchestra. All personal preference of course. It's a great venue though. Beautiful grounds, tons of helpful staff and volunteers, multiple bathrooms that are fairly clean for concert standards, free parking (though it is a bit of hike up a hill from the lot to the actual theater entrance). Great sound too. Speakers are solid but not too loud or base-heavy (as they can be in some of the places especially in the city). Acoustics are excellent all around. It's designed very well. Makes a big difference. We've been to just about every venue in the area and this is one of our favorites.

We were just at Wolftrap for our Encore Circle picnic lunch. It was terrific. Thanks to all the folks who are making these events happen. Sandy and Mike Berger

Venue is beautiful, is easy to get to off highway, has good parking lots that are easy (enough) to get out of at the end of the night, and most importantly has great acoustics. Artists love playing at Wolftrap and it shows.
