The Shrine Auditorium and Expo Center comprises the single largest proscenium style stage in North America with some 6,300 seats. It is also the largest theatre in North America with a free stading balcony. The adjoining 54,000 square foot Exposition Center is utilized by nearly every entertainment company which performs upon the Shrine stage for rehearsals, dinners, adjunct shows, set construction and scenery storage. The Expo Center may also be used stand alone, as an excellent venue for Concerts, Dinner Partys, Trade Shows, etc. With it's recent $15 million renovation, the facility now provides state-of-the-art technology and has preserved the beauty of this historical theater.
