Palace Theatre, Performing arts center in Marion, Ohio.
The Palace Theatre is an entertainment venue with three floors and seating for approximately 1,440 people, designed with Mediterranean-style elements. Both the interior and exterior display ornate details of this architectural approach.
The building was designed by architect John Eberson and opened in 1928 during the golden age of movie palaces in America. It comes from an era when elaborately designed cinemas were at the heart of entertainment culture.
The theatre serves as a community gathering place for live performances and screenings that shape local cultural life. Visitors come here to experience music, theatre, and film together with neighbors.
The theatre is straightforward to visit and offers varied seating options for guests with different needs. You can purchase tickets at the box office or through the online system.
The building preserves an original Wurlitzer organ, one of the few surviving instruments from the silent film era in Ohio. This organ is a rare relic from a time when live music accompanied films.
