Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Theatre on the Square

915 Broadway

Tacoma, WA 98402

Situated in the heart of downtown Tacoma’s Theater District, the venue is approximately 35 miles south of Seattle — an easy drive for regional visitors.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive about 60 minutes before showtime. That window gives you time to park in the Park Plaza North Garage (923 Commerce Street), walk via accessible routes to the entrance on Broadway, and find your reserved seats before the lights go down. If you’re using street parking, allow extra time to locate a space — availability can vary by event.

Public transit is a smart choice for Theatre on the Square events. The Tacoma Link light rail and Pierce Transit buses stop nearby in the Theater District, making it easy to step off and stroll to the venue with minimal walking. If you’re using rideshare, set your dropoff on Broadway near the entrance for the most direct access.

Weather isn’t a factor here — it’s an indoor venue — but downtown can be busy on performance nights. Factor in time for ticket scanning and any lines at will call or concessions. With reserved seating in a compact space, getting settled is quick once you’re inside.

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your evening by exploring Tacoma’s Theater District before curtain. The venue sits adjacent to the historic Pantages Theater and within walking distance of local eateries, bars, and public art — perfect for a quick bite or a celebratory drink before or after the performance.

If you’re traveling from the Seattle area (about 35 miles), consider arriving early to enjoy nearby cultural highlights like the Museum of Glass or the Chihuly Bridge of Glass along the Foss Waterway. These attractions pair well with a night of live performance and help build a full-day itinerary.

Coordinating with a group? With a 302-seat capacity and reserved seating, it’s easy to sit together if you buy early. Share your entry plan, meet near the Broadway entrance, and give yourselves at least an hour to navigate parking, pick up concessions if available, and settle into your seats before Theatre on the Square events begin.
