Hogg Memorial Auditorium, Neoclassical auditorium at University of Texas, Austin, United States

Hogg Memorial Auditorium is a performance hall with neoclassical features on the University of Texas campus in Austin. The three-story building displays symmetrical design with grand columns and intricate plasterwork, now accommodating about 1,000 people with contemporary sound and lighting systems.

The building was constructed in 1933 as the first theater on the university campus and was dedicated to Governor James Stephen Hogg. Its construction reflected the institution's commitment to cultural and academic life during the early 20th century.

The auditorium carries the name of James Stephen Hogg, the 20th governor of Texas, and was designed by Paul Cret, the French-born Philadelphia architect who shaped much of the university's campus plan. It was the first theater built at the university, in 1933, and reopened after a renovation carried out between 2021 and 2023.
