Capitol Theatre, Historic theatre building in Downtown Salt Lake City, United States
The Capitol Theatre is a performance venue in downtown Salt Lake City featuring Italian Renaissance architecture. The interior spans multiple levels with ornate details and seating for approximately 1,800 spectators.
The building opened in 1913 as the Orpheum Theatre and shaped the city's entertainment landscape at that time. A major renovation in 2013 preserved the historic structure while updating systems for contemporary performances.
The theatre hosts major dance companies and opera performances that draw audiences year-round. The stage shapes the city's cultural life and provides local and international artists with a place to create and perform.
The theatre is located downtown and offers accessibility for wheelchair users along with listening devices for those with hearing difficulties. Visitors can purchase tickets online or in person and should check the schedule in advance for shows.
The theatre played a role during the 2002 Winter Olympics, hosting international arts performances for visitors from around the world. This period made it a gathering point for global cultural exchanges during the international event.
