Akron's premier entertainment venue and cultural landmark features a wide and exciting variety of quality entertainment and live performances.
A cultural landmark, the Akron Civic Theatre boasts a rich and spectacular history spanning over 70 years. During that time, hundreds of thousands of patrons have been thrilled by myriad theatrical presentations, both on stage and on screen.
Built in 1929, the facility was designed by famed theater architect, John Eberson. The interior structure was fashioned after a Moorish castle featuring Mediterranean decor, including medieval carvings, authentic European antiques, and Italian alabaster sculptures.
Among facilities of its size, the Civic is one of only five remaining atmospheric theaters in the country where patrons experience a star-lit sky and intermittent clouds moving across the horizon, all while sitting inside the auditorium.
