Step into the Marion Palace Theatre, a historic movie palace built in 1928 and designed by renowned theatre architect John Eberson. The fully operational theatre features a stunning Spanish-inspired interior and a celestial ceiling with a midnight-blue dome, twinkling lights, and drifting cloud projections that create the feeling of an open night sky. Originally built as a vaudeville movie palace, the Palace continues to welcome audiences for live performances, films, and special events.

The adjacent May Pavilion provides a versatile space for corporate meetings, social gatherings, performances, lectures, and other events, and both spaces are available for rent. Tours of the theatre are available by appointment. Plan a visit around a performance or film to experience the historic charm of the Marion Palace Theatre.
