What Is The Sky Suite? And How Do I Rent It?

Back to topWhat Is The Sky Suite? And How Do I Rent It?

The Sky Suite is a private room available to rent for almost every show. The suite was converted from the venue's original projection room from its days as a movie theater in the 1930s. It has a large panoramic opening giving it the best view in the house. And with seating for up to 20 guests, it is the perfect option of a private space away from the crowds while still being a part of the party.

For pricing and availability please email SkySuite@TheStateTheatre.com

What's the seating situation?

Back to topWhat's the seating situation?

The State Theatre is a general admission venue. 

For most shows, there is the option to reserve one of our dining tables. Reserving a dining table is the only way to guarantee you will have a seat. 

DINING RESERVATIONS:

Reservations are $12/pair and there is a $10/person food minimum at all reserved dining tables (The minimum is for food. Beer is not food. Neither is an appletini, or any other alcohol. Just food). Our full dining menu is available at all reserved dining tables.
Dining reservations can be made when purchasing tickets. The location of the seat is not guaranteed. Seat placement priority is determined by the time the reservation was made (the earlier you reserve, the better seat you'll have). You will be given at least two time slots to choose from when reserving. Tables are held up to 15 minutes past your reservation time before being given away. 

 

SEATING WITHOUT A DINING RESERVATION:

 If you do not have a dining reservation, there are still plenty of general admission seating options. There are a limited number of tables in the back of the room behind the reserved dining sections that are available on a first come first serve basis. The balcony is also all seated and all general admission.

For standers or people who missed out on a seat, there is standing area in front of the stage and on our balcony wings.
