The Capitol Theatre's long history began over ninety years ago with Frederick Mercy, Sr.'s vision of a grand vaudeville theatre located in downtown Yakima.
Today, The Capitol Theatre stands as a testament to the community's commitment to its heritage and its long standing commitment to the arts. Our stage is home to Yakima Symphony Orchestra, Town Hall, and many local dance studios. We also proudly present top-quality touring Broadway musicals along with Capitol Kids, which is an education and outreach program for school-age children.
