San Diego Civic Theatre, Performance theatre in downtown San Diego, United States.
The San Diego Civic Theatre is a large performance venue in downtown San Diego with approximately 3,000 seats. The seats are arranged in alphabetical order, with even numbers on the right side and odd numbers on the left side.
The theatre opened in 1965 and became the largest performing arts venue in the San Diego region. Since then it has established itself as a center for the performing arts, drawing generations of audiences.
The theatre hosts several resident organizations like San Diego Opera and the San Diego Symphony Orchestra, which perform here throughout the year. Visitors can experience different types of productions, from classical music to ballet.
Access to the seating follows a clear pattern, so it helps to check your seat numbers before arriving. Navigation in the hall is made easier by the alphabetical arrangement, so visitors can find their seats easily.
During certain productions when the orchestra pit is not needed, the theatre adds three extra rows labeled AA, BB, and CC in front of the standard Row A. This allows the seating capacity to be adjusted flexibly based on the type of performance.
