Symphony Hall

To consistently deliver high quality professional entertainment for all the citizens of Western Massachusetts thereby enhancing the quality of each life, increasing awareness and patronage of the performing arts, and actively contributing to the long-term economic growth and prosperity of our community.

The 2,611-seat Symphony Hall is home to Broadway-style theatre, top-quality children's programming, internationally-recognized speakers and numerous concerts and performances. Built in the early 1900s, the historic building underwent an extensive renovation in the fall of 2004. Patrons are enjoying refurbished seating, newly painted ceilings, walls and floors, new acoustical and decorative draperies and improved restroom facilities.

Off-Broadway comedies, dramas and musicals are presented October through April in the intimate, 479-seat Blake Theatre; the 70-seat Winifred Arms Theatre is host to numerous community events, performances and meetings.

CityStage and Symphony Hall are Springfield's only destinations for live, professional theatre. We present a season of touring Broadway musicals, concerts and an educational series at Symphony Hall and Off-Broadway musicals and comedies at CityStage. On average, the two theatres host 250 events from September through June with an extremely broad variety of shows. Our entertainment ranges from classical music to wrestling events, with magic shows, concerts, jugglers, an educational series, dramas, public forums, graduations, dance recitals and everything else in between. Symphony Hall is home to the Springfield Symphony Orchestra, The Springfield Public Forum, and public and private graduation ceremonies for the Springfield public schools and surrounding communities. Both theatres are truly valuable resources to all of Springfield and the surrounding communities.
