About Akron Civic Theatre

A wedding at the Akron Civic Theatre puts your wedding photos inside one of the most unusual rooms in Akron. The auditorium was designed to feel like a Moorish courtyard at night, with medieval carvings, European antiques and alabaster sculptures under a ceiling of twinkling stars and slowly drifting clouds. Very few places look like it, so plan time for your photographer and wedding videographer to work with that ceiling and the ornate details around you.

You can spend your whole wedding day in the building. The Civic has about 20,000 square feet of event space in several rooms, for anywhere from 25 guests to a full buyout. With theater-style seating, the way you'd set up a ceremony, the Grand Lobby holds 150, the Auditorium Stage 170 and the Knight Stage 190. A stage gives your videographer clear sight lines for the processional and the vows. Outside, PNC Plaza looks over Main Street and Lock 3, a lively spot for pictures and a cocktail hour in good weather.

For your wedding reception, the Auditorium Stage seats 140 at tables, while the Grand Lobby, the Mezzanine and the Knight Stage each seat about 80. Wild Oscar's, a small room down by Lock 4, works for an after-party of up to 75 standing. There are no preferred caterers, so you can bring your own and the Civic team coordinates with them. All drinks are bought through the theatre. Ask how the stage lighting can be set for the first dance and the toasts, since that shows on video.

Tour the spaces with the private events team and ask which one fits your guest count and your ceremony.
Walk the building with your photographer and videographer to plan where pictures happen.
Ask about photo and video guidelines and about parking downtown.

A little about Akron Civic Theatre

The Civic opened in 1929 as a cinema and vaudeville house, and it is one of only five atmospheric theaters left in the country. A major restoration began in 2002, and in 2021 the theatre reopened with two new spaces, the Knight Stage and Wild Oscar's.
