Plaza Theatre is a historic venue on S. Palm Canyon Drive in downtown Palm Springs, between W. Arenas Road and Tahquitz Canyon Way. Its program brings live shows, films, music, comedy, multicultural programming, and educational opportunities for children to a restored theatre setting.

A Restored Downtown Setting

Inside, restored spaces include the Mark Adams Grand Foyer, the Modernism Week Lobby, the Auen Mezzanine, and orchestra-level seating. Renovation also made every entrance door wheelchair accessible. These features frame a visit with the character of a historic downtown theatre while supporting a more accessible arrival for guests attending ticketed events.

Programming for Varied Audiences

The theatre presents a broad mix of live shows, films, music, comedy, and multicultural programming. It also offers free or low-cost educational programs for children, adding a community dimension to the venue’s calendar. This range means visitors can look for an experience that suits a night out, a cultural afternoon, or a family-focused outing.

Prepare for Digital Entry

Performances and events are ticketed through Ticketmaster, the theatre’s exclusive ticketing partner, and all tickets use digital mobile entry. The box office is cashless, card-holder identification is required, and re-entry is not allowed after a ticket is scanned. Review these arrival details before you go so your visit starts smoothly at the door.

With free downtown parking nearby, Plaza Theatre is an easy choice when a Palm Springs itinerary calls for a ticketed cultural event in the city center and accessible entry.
