About Gillioz Theatre

The Gillioz Theatre is a beloved historic venue in downtown Springfield, Missouri. Built in 1926 in Spanish Colonial Revival style, this National Register of Historic Places-listed theater reopened in 2006 after a careful restoration. Operated by the Gillioz Center for Arts & Entertainment, the venue hosts a diverse lineup—from Ozarks Lyric Opera to community performances and touring acts.

With a reserved seating capacity of 1,015 and a general admission capacity up to 1,300, the Gillioz offers an intimate yet lively setting for memorable live experiences. The venue also features The Gallery at the Gillioz and a seamless blend of historic charm with modern accessibility.

Below you'll find practical details to help you secure your seats: seating information, parking options, transit access, and nearby hotels and dining to pair with your event night.

Parking is available nearby since the Gillioz does not operate its own lot. Downtown garages and lots are within walking distance, and an interactive parking map is available to help you plan. City Utilities Transit serves the area with a Transit Center at 211 N Main Ave, and multiple routes stop near Park Central East for easy access to events. For a comfortable stay connected to downtown culture, consider nearby hotels like Hotel Vandivort and The Q Hotel & Suites. When planning your visit, check the official Gillioz site for an accessible seating chart and updated event details.
