Guide to Pacific Amphitheatre: Tickets, Events, and Venue Information

Set inside the OC Fair & Event Center, Pacific Amphitheatre at 100 Fair Dr in Costa Mesa pairs Southern California nights with a laid-back, open-air concert experience. The roughly 8,000-seat bowl keeps sightlines tight, so vocals cut through and guitar solos feel close, whether you are near the pit or higher in the stands. Summer is prime time here, anchored by the OC Fair schedule, with a calendar that spans rock, pop, Latin, country, indie and fan-favorite comedy.

Expect clear acoustics, comfortable reserved seating, and easy in and out from on-site parking lots. Touring staples light up the stage, from legacy acts to rising artists, plus comedy nights that deliver everything from character-driven bits to razor-sharp storytelling. If your taste leans toward Jeff Dunham's quick-change puppetry, Iliza Shlesinger's rapid-fire riffs on real life, or Gabriel Iglesias' sound-effect storytelling, you will find shows in that spirit on the summer slate.

Convenient to the 405, 55 and 73, the venue offers accessible seating and plentiful concessions, with extra fair-time food options when the OC Fair is in full swing. Buy Pacific Amphitheatre tickets from Vivid Seats for a secure purchase, standout selection and rewards you can use toward your next night out.
