Riviera Theatre
The Riviera Theatre is a premier concert and special events venue located in Chicago’s historic Uptown theater district. The Riviera Theatre Chicago was completed in 1917 by architects George and C.W.

The Riviera Theatre features a main floor, balcony and fixed theater seats and can hold a maximum of about 2,500 guests. Riviera Theatre was originally built as a movie theater but was then transformed in 1986 into a private nightclub. Today, the Riviera Theatre Chicago hosts a variety of musical performances.The Riviera Theatre schedule of events is not filled with the latest and greatest in musical names. Although there are a few occasions where main stream names hit the Riviera Theatre’s stage, the Riviera Theatre schedule for the most part caters to many talented mid-level acts.
