Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall

One of the last surviving theater venues on Broadway, the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall keeps the tradition of hosting prolific performances alive in this historic part of Portland. The building that now houses what locals lovingly call “The Schnitz” was originally the Portland Publix Theatre, built in 1928, and later renamed the Paramount Theatre. The Concert Hall plays host to a variety of presentations including classical, jazz, pop, rock, folk and gospel music, dance, theatre, travel films, conferences, and weddings.

Newmark Theater

Located inside of the Antoinette Hatfield Hall and across from The Schnitz, this intimate 880-seat theater was designed to emulate the Edwardian-style theaters of Europe. It is one of the most intimate theatrical experiences you'll ever encounter – no seat is farther than 65 feet from the stage.

Dedicated to Excellence in Dance, White Bird is committed to bringing the best Portland-based, regional, national, and international dance companies to the city and to fostering the growth of dance in the region through presenting established and emerging companies and choreographers, commissioning and co-commissioning new works.

Wonder Ballroom

The Wonder Ballroom has been a welcoming music venue in northeast Portland, Oregon since 2004.

On the basement level, you’ll find an exquisite café called Under Wonder Lounge, featuring cocktails and sophisticated comfort food.

Aladdin Theater

The Historic Aladdin Theater started out as Geller's Theatre, a popular vaudeville house in the late 20's hosting greats including Jack Benny. For the next 40 years, it was a family movie theater, and then, briefly, an adult movie theater. In the early ‘80’s it was renovated, and by 1993 concerts began playing there, eventually making it a major destination for both live music and comedy in Portland.
