Frank Sinatra Theater at Bank Atlantic Center

This may be one of the hidden gems for concert and show lovers.  I was there recently for a concert for B.B. King. This venue rocks!

It's a 3,000-seat theater where there legitimately isn't a bad seat, even in the upper wings. There is a deep enough rake that everyone is afforded a great view of the stage. In fact, if you usually like floor seating, and you don't get more than four or five rows back, I would highly recommend looking in sections 101,102, etc.  The view is great (really).

Across the street from Sawgrass Mills mall, there are a  lot of restaurants open before show time, but only a few (Bahama Breeze) open to midnight on weekends.

The other stuff with the theater is a bit more of a problem. The only food and souvenirs are up on the hockey rink's floor. They shut down the majority of it, including the cool stir fry counter that they have open for bigger concerts and hockey games.

Parking is $20.00, generally outrageous. The other thing that BankAtlantic people could do BETTER is at least turn on the signage around the lots that shows that the acts at Sinatra are playing there. Hell, they could even put up some signs for the Sinatra Theater.

I can't tell you how many people who were at the concert who had to ask the parking people if the venue was in the building, and also who had to make sure that B.B. King was actually playing there that night.
