White Eagle Hall, Historic entertainment venue in Downtown Jersey City, United States.
White Eagle Hall is an entertainment venue in Downtown Jersey City featuring three separate bars and soaring ceilings. The proscenium stage accommodates up to 800 standing guests or 400 seated, and hosts live music, theater performances, and comedy shows with food and beverage service available.
The hall was built in 1910 by Polish immigrants led by Reverend Peter Boleslaus Kwiatowski as a community center. It later transformed into the practice gymnasium for St. Anthony High School before becoming the entertainment venue it is today.
The building displays busts of Polish figures on its facade, reflecting the community that founded and shaped this space. The hall served as a gathering place for Polish immigrants and their descendants to celebrate their heritage and traditions.
The venue is located on Newark Avenue in the downtown area, making it easy to reach and navigate. It hosts a variety of events, so checking availability and event schedules in advance helps ensure a good experience.
The original wooden basketball court flooring from when the building served as St. Anthony High School's practice gymnasium was creatively repurposed. Pieces of this historic floor now form parts of the bar counters and balcony surfaces throughout the venue.
