Rialto Center for the Arts

Rialto Center for the Arts is a performing arts venue in downtown Atlanta with an 800-seat auditorium equipped with modern sound and lighting technology. The facility hosts concerts, dance performances, and theatrical productions throughout the year.

The building was originally constructed in 1916 as a movie theater and served that purpose for decades. At the end of the 1990s, it underwent major renovation to become a modern performing arts center.

Georgia State University operates this venue and brings together local artists and internationally known performers throughout the year. Visitors experience a blend of professional productions and events that connect closely with the university community.

The venue sits centrally located and is easily reached by public transportation, with parking available nearby. The building is fully accessible and equipped to accommodate visitors with different mobility needs.

The center works closely with many arts organizations and presents more than 100 events each year. This variety allows visitors to explore different artistic styles and genres that might not otherwise come together.
