Capitol Center for the Arts

I have been going to this venue for years and it has always been a pleasant experience. The CCA is always clean and the staff friendly and helpful. There is a large auditorium and balcony which together offers seating for over 1300 people. There is usually limited food and drinks available whenever I have attended. I am unsure if this is a provision of the facility or provided by the production staff. Either way there is a small concession stand as well as drink and snack vending machines. Several benches are provided along the main approach to the entrance where people can congregate before and after the event as well as during any intermissions. The Capitol Center is an air-conditioned, handicapped accessible facility with an elevator and street level drop off entrance and a limited municipal free parking garage within a 5 to 10 minute walk along Concord's Main St. Which boasts many shops and restaurants along the way. All a visit to New Hampshire's Concord Capitol Center for the Arts is a wonderful way to spend a night "out on town."

We love attending events at the capital center and are current members here. We value their contribution to the arts in our Capital city . We are always scanning their event calendar for shows. Its always a great night out with dinner and a show in downtown when we find a event to attend. Seats and AC are a little bit on the “nostalgic” side. Hopefully we’ll see a bit of an upgrade here in the upcoming years.

Best little theater around!! There isn’t a bad seat in the whole place and music sounds incredible!! Parking can be difficult but if you have a handicap tag you can usually find a spot across the street in the parking garage and there is an elevator even though it’s hidden - so just ask for help. I posted pictures from 3 different events - 2 School Concerts and 1 of the Comedian Bob Marley - I have also seen several plays and concerts there which were all fantastic!

This was actually a nice place to attend a concert. Unlike some theaters where I felt like I was sitting I my neighbour's lap I was able to sit comfortably during the show. The layout of the theater outside of the theater area felt chaotic. Both entering, and leaving the theater I felt like a salmon swimming against the tide. It should also be noted there is no parking here, you'll need to either pay for garage parking, or find street parking on the parallel streets as the theater is located in the heart of downtown it maybe difficult for an out of towner to find parking so plan ahead.

Nice building. Good acoustics and nice lightning/sound equipment. They have a freight lift to get any equipment in for your performance. As an audience member you have a fairly comfortable chair for what it is, snacks and drinks are overpriced so buy them before you come. It's $3 for a bottle of water or a soda.
