Warner Theatre

The Warner Theatre is one of Washington DC's most iconic concert halls, a 1,847-capacity venue that has been part of the city's cultural fabric since its grand opening on September 4, 1924. Originally built as a movie palace and vaudeville house by Harry M. Warner of Warner Bros., it brought world-class entertainment to DC throughout the Jazz Age and Big Band era.

A meticulous $10 million restoration completed in 1992 returned the theatre to its original grandeur. In 2024, the Warner celebrated its 100-year centennial. Now operated by Live Nation, it books a diverse calendar of touring concerts, comedy specials, and Broadway productions.
