San Diego Civic Theatre

Great venue for anything musical. Nearby parking, good fun in the plaza out front, wonderful sight lines and great acoustics.

Great establishment. Took my three-year-old daughter to watch the nutcracker. Plenty of parking in the area, we have to pay for it of course is downtown, smooth check in and check out. Considering the theater business is a bad one, the management team here actually takes very good care of the facilities. It was clean, the staff was attentive, had a great time. 

An awesome venue for performances. I just wish they could get the aggressive homeless folks away from the streets leading to the Civic Center

I wish the city would update the civic theater - I attend a show atleast once a year and as I get older i notice that the theatre is too. The carpet is not as vivid as it use to be. The seats thank gawd are not squeaky but also can be updated. Future generations need to feel the magic that I felt seeing a broadway show for the first time. When Broadway was revived this theatre should have too. Please support

My husband and I saw Wicked here and it was amazing! One of the best theaters I’ve been to. Elegant architectural design from the staircase to the theater. There’s a lot of parking lots in the area. And the food? It’s on Hollywood Blvd so restaurants are a wide range of fast food to fine dining.

This is an awesome place to see a show. Seating is spacious and the view to the stage was all encompassing. Sound was just right to make the experience more enjoyable. Would like to see more Broadway type shows book here.

Out of all the restaurants my daughter and I visited on our San Diego trip this was the winner! True it is very dark and loud. The food was a stand out! My daughter had salmon and I had Scallops! So delicious! Certainly worth a visit!

The seats are well placed. Wherever you are seating you can see clearly. It is rare nowadays in theaters and venues. Of course, there is no filming or photos allowed once the presentation starts. But Frozen was amazing, I think better than the movie. Excellent singers and amazing stage decors. Really first class.

Absolutely loved the performance but the seats are tiny. I do appreciate the leg room in front of the seats though! If you haven't seen Shen Yun I would greatly suggest it. It was fabulous

The civic theater is one of the better theaters here in Downtown San Diego. The acoustics are excellent and so is the seating area. The plays are top rate, as are the movies.

Really great experience. The staff is very nice. Lots of good seats! Great shows. Pro Tips: . 1) You may be able to save money by buying at the box office especially if you are buying a last minute ticket. It's a big theater so it's not uncommon for a few weekday tickets to be open. 2) motorcycle and scooter parking is very close to the entrance.

We love going here. Come and enjoy.

ADA access is great here. You can swap out the ADA seats (which have arms) for armless banquet chairs from the lobby so people of all sizes can sit comfortably.
