We enjoyed an evening of Scottish fiddel music the night before St. Patrick's Day and it was a blast. It is especially cool that the theater has a relaxed vibe and allows you to bring in the beverages you purchase before the show or intermission - fun! Great theater, great staff, great shows - loved it!

We attended a Canadian Brass Concert. It's an intimate venue - someone said it had been a church, not sure if that's true. Sight lines were good, and the sound was excellent. It was an easy theatre to get in and out of, and it was just a quick walk from our hotel.

We saw the Patsy Cline Tribute and had seats third row...great seating. Smaller theater, confortable seating, even had a hat rack under your chair...cute! Parking is convenient next door, and fun to see a show at this theater. Large stage, great lighting and sound.

We flew down from Atlanta to see Michael Franks and Herb Alpert. This venue is cozy, intimate, and well ran. We had an awesome time, and after the announcements they make for future concerts with Koz, Benoit, Culbertson, Sanborn and others, I am starting to wish I link in St. Pete!

We saw the opera "Tosca" there. This place dates back to the 1920s, so do not expect modern comforts. However, we managed to get seats just a few days before our show, 4th row from the front, at the side. Great view, and able to read the surtitles above the stage. The stage is tiny, first time I have seen... More

Access for the handicapped is the worst of any venue ever. One must go all the way to the back, take a tiny elevator. If there were a fire..I shudder. Would attend more events here but for my fear for those who need handicapped access.

This is a very old (1930's) theater. It is a throwback to old times. yet, the sound and sight lines are excellent. We saw "Seasonal Sparkle" performed by the St. Petersburg Opera Company -- delightful!

I have attended many events here. High school shows, college shows, professional shows. Great venue, small and quirky, great acoustics, great staff. Inexpensive and worth much more. I hope it never goes away. I wish all cities had a Palladium. Go get your Nutcraker tickets this year before they sell out. Your kids will love you.

The Palladium's fare is directed more at the 'cultured' classical music, Operas, folksy singers fill the playbill. Only negitive experience restrooms for men and women
