Santa Barbara Bowl Event Tickets
Get ready for ocean views and musical thrills when you purchase Santa Barbara Bowl tickets from TicketSmarter. Located on a hill in central California, this 4,562-seat outdoor amphitheater has concerts from April through October each year. Constructed in 1936 as a part of the New Deal, this venue was originally the home for the Old Spanish Days Fiesta and featured a wooden revolving stage. The original stage was destroyed and replaced with a concrete slab that lasted until 1991 when the Santa Barbara Foundation started a $42 million renovation project on the complex. The renovation took about 12 years to complete. The amphitheater now features permanent seats, an enormous stage, and backstage areas plus multiple concession stands and food carts.
