Bob Carr Performing Arts Centre, Orlando

Located on Livingston Street, the Bob Carr Performing Arts Center is a 2,500 seat performance arts venue that features ballets, theater and musical performances from popular artists. Originally known as the Municipal Auditorium, the building was named after former mayor Bob Carr in 1978 after an extensive renovation. The building has been the location of many performances since its opening in 1927. It is one of the oldest performance venues in the city and a part of the Orlando Centroplex.

The center is home to some of the biggest and best theatrical performances in Florida. The Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, and Cats are but a few of the events the venue has hosted. In addition, the Orlando Opera, Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra, the Festival of Orchestras, the Florida Symphony Orchestra, as well as many other shows and exhibits, call the center home. The building has frequently been updated to stay abreast of new technology. It has continental-style seating and is handicapped and hearing impaired accessible. It is available for business conferences or seminar use. The building will be replaced with the Dr. P. Phillips Orlando Performing Arts Center in 2014.
