Location and Transportation

Venue Address

• Parking: On-site parking is available at the venue.
• Public Transit: Local bus service (COLTS) serves the area near North Main Avenue.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Rideshare drop-off and pick-up are available at the main entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 45–60 minutes before showtime. That window gives you time to park on-site, pick up concessions, and find your seats without feeling rushed. Because the venue sits atop a hill, an early arrival also helps with the short approach and any elevator or ramp access you might need.

Theater at North is an indoor venue, so weather typically won’t impact your experience once you’re inside. Still, it’s smart to allow a few extra minutes in case of seasonal conditions, especially during winter or on busy event nights when traffic near North Main Avenue can be heavier.

If you’re taking public transit via COLTS or using rideshare, aim for earlier drop-offs to avoid last-minute crowds at the entrance. Cell service is generally reliable throughout the venue, making it easy to access mobile tickets and coordinate with your group.

Inside, the venue’s restored architecture shines — a spacious auditorium with a grand proscenium stage and elegant detailing creates a classic theater atmosphere. You’ll find a concession stand available during events, plus restrooms and accessible facilities to make your visit comfortable from start to finish.

Elevators and ramps provide access to all levels, and merchandise tables are available for select performances if you’re looking to grab a shirt or souvenir. If you’ll be moving between levels or have seats on an upper tier, comfortable footwear makes getting around easier, especially given the building’s hilltop location.
