We watched 2 sold out shows back to back at Wooly's and we enjoyed ourselves very much. The venue was a good place to watch a concert and the location was great. We drove in from Kansas City and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff at Wooly's were really nice and the atmosphere and crowd were excellent. We will definitely be back. There is not very much seating but there are booths that can be reserved that are located pretty close to the stage.
All in all, I'll definitely continue to go here, I'll just be very selective of the shows I see here.
Wooly's is a nice place to catch a show in downtown Des Moines. That said, I'd suggest not going to a sold out show there unless it's a band you really want to see. A packed house here is elbow to elbow, and good luck getting through the crowd.
I had a great experience at this venue. The security was quick and polite, the bartenders were awesome, and the entire building was clean. Only reason it's 4 stars is that there aren't any seating options unless you're willing to pay for a booth (usually $200, fits 4-6).
Stone Sour was awesome back in May!
Great venue for live music and events. It gets a 1 star knock for ticket fee prices. Ticket prices a fine but the additional ticket fees are way too high. Beer is expansive but the venue is good enough I don’t mind the price.
Great Venue right in front of the Capital Building in Downtown Desert Moines. The bonus is the bars here and there on every block around Wooly's. The original Up/Down below Wooly's is a hidden Staple also, it's actually in the basement. Such a fun town and area to spend a weekend or week. LoL
