The Premier Theater (~4,000)
Foxwoods puts its concerts in the Premier Theater. It is a multi-level room inside the Fox Tower. It seats about 4,000 across Orchestra, Parterre, and Mezzanine levels. The size is the draw. It is big enough for top touring names. But even the upper levels feel close to the stage. It is a much closer big-name show than a 10,000-seat arena.
Best for: big headliners in a large but close theater.
