El Rey Theatre
The El Rey Theater is an original art deco theater in the heart of the Miracle Mile, one of Los Angeles' preserved art deco districts. The El Rey was built in 1936 and designed by Clifford Balch. After over 50 years as a first run movie house, the El Rey was converted into a live music venue in 1994. A registered Historic-Cultural Monument, the El Rey has sweeping staircases, an art deco lobby, VIP balcony lounge and a grand ballroom equipped with a full stage.Advance tickets are sold through Ticketmaster only. We do have a box office the night of the show for Ticketmaster will call, which opens at the same time as doors. The only time we sell tickets at our box office is the night of the show, when doors open, providing they have not sold out on Ticketmaster ahead of time.
The El Rey is an all ages venue. We have a diner-style café with outdoor patio seating.
