Foothills Performing Arts & Civic Center is a not-for-profit cultural anchor in downtown Oneonta, NY. With multiple spaces for concerts, plays, and community events, it brings world-class performances and local talent together in a welcoming, community-minded setting. Located at 24 Market Street, this venue supports a thriving arts scene and serves as a gathering place for residents and visitors alike.

We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating configurations, parking options, transit access, and nearby hotels and restaurants to help you plan a smooth, stress-free visit. Secure your seats through our trusted network and enjoy what Oneonta’s arts community has to offer.

Foothills Performing Arts & Civic Center hosts a diverse slate of events—from Met Opera Live in HD broadcasts to Orpheus Theatre productions and community markets. The venue comprises three main spaces: the Bettiol Theater (roughly 588–700 seats, depending on configuration), The Loft (about 200 seats), and the Wright/Wilber Bank Atrium (up to 500 seats). Together, the center can accommodate around 775 attendees in its varied configurations. While there is no on-site parking, downtown Oneonta offers on-street parking and nearby municipal lots and a garage. The Oneonta Public Transit (OPT) hub relocated to 47 Market Street in late 2025, making Market Street a convenient access point for many events. Nearby lodging and dining options include The Marx Hotel at 55 Market Street and Courtyard by Marriott Oneonta Cooperstown Area, among others. For guests planning a visit, consider affiliate partners for accommodations and dining to enhance your experience. For event details, seating, and tickets, we’re here to help you navigate the best options within Foothills’ flexible spaces.
