Your Eccles Theater experience starts the minute you enter from busy Main Street into the spectacular five-story glass lobby. The distinctive chandeliers, colorful balustrades, and striking terrazzo floor remind you are in for a memorable experience. In addition to your performance, enjoy the outdoor terrace that spans the length of the building and provides excellent views of the city and the Oquirrh Mountains or enjoy selections from the Salt Lake County Fine Art collection.
The Eccles Theater is a performance destination for Salt Lake, Utah, and the Intermountain West. The 2,500-seat Delta Performance Hall hosts the Zions Bank Broadway at the Eccles series and the Live! at the Eccles popular events series. The Regent Street Black Box hosts local performances from dance and theater to film and concerts.
The Eccles Theater inspired the renovation and revitalization of Regent Street, just east of the venue. Regent Street is now a lively urban thoroughfare and is host to new local restaurants and retail establishments.

Interpreting Utah’s Landscape Inside Delta Performance Hall
Walking into the Delta Performance Hall, you could be forgiven for thinking you’ve stepped into a southern Utah canyon. The Eccles Theater architects at Pelli Clarke Pelli, were so inspired by the southern Utah landscape, they decided to bring it into the Theater.
The walls, seats and floors are awash in the colors and striated patterns of the canyons and the signature star-field ceiling is reminiscent of a big, clear, star-filled night sky. One happy and unexpected result of the star-field ceiling is seeing how some acts integrate it into their performances.
