Ruth Eckerd isn't as nice as Mahaffey, but it is quite a step up from the other venues in the area. Great place to see a show.

Nicely designed with good acoustics and viewing. Nice selection of performances. Valet parking a big help.

While vacationing in St. Pete we saw a concert here, Crosby, Stills, Nash. The facility is showing its age as in the performance hall the ceiling around the HVAC diffusers shows signs of damage.

Wonderful small venue without a bad seat in the house. The sound is great, the stage is great, the valet parking is great, the ushers are amazingly great.
