Great theater ! Perfect for seeing your favorite artists up close. Medium sized with good visual & sounds. Similar to Apollo Theater in Harlem and the Ambassador Theater on Broadway.

Did you know? The Loew’s Kings Theatre opened in 1929 as Loew’s flagship theater , with a French Renaissance style architecture inspired by the Palace of Versailles and the Paris Opera House.

This 3,200 seat theater has been beautifully restored. Some great concerts coming up, worth a visit.

Brian Pinard

Amazing decor, newly renovated, great acoustics ...whatever your purpose here, you're in for a treat! Pic is of Stephen Stills.

It was my first time here and what an amazing edifice. The interior surely reflects the almost 100M it took to renovate. Jill Scott was phenomenal. My grievances: the location and the long lines !

Jesse Chan-Norris

Really beautiful venue , but with a popular show there seem to be lines everywhere inside (to get into the theatre , at the bar , to get to your seats). Just be warned.

Probably my favorite theater to see music in NY. The sound is great and it's absolutely stunning

This is a wonderful theater . The seat is large, the aisles are wide but be careful walking down them! They have so many bars .
