McDonald Theatre, Historic entertainment venue in downtown Eugene, United States
McDonald Theatre is a performance venue built in 1925 with preserved 1920s architecture featuring detailed stone and brick facades along downtown Eugene's main street. The interior layout allows for flexible staging arrangements that accommodate both traditional theater seating and standing concert configurations.
The building was constructed in 1925 as a movie house serving the growing Eugene entertainment market. By 1982 it gained recognition on the National Register of Historic Places for its architectural and cultural importance.
The theater has long served as a gathering place where people experience everything from touring rock bands to comedy acts and local performances. This role continues to shape how the community gathers for entertainment today.
Entry is available during event times, and arriving early allows time to explore the venue and find your preferred seating. The downtown location makes it accessible on foot or by public transportation for most visitors.
The space can be reconfigured depending on the type of event, transforming from seated theater rows to an open floor arrangement for standing concerts. This flexibility means no two visits feel exactly the same depending on what is scheduled.
