About Spreckels Theatre
The Spreckels Theatre, a beloved historic performing arts center in the Spreckels Building, sits at 121 Broadway in downtown San Diego. Opened in 1912 and designated a National Historic Site in 1972, the venue has hosted Broadway productions, opera, dance, and performances by acclaimed artists. While the building is currently closed since 2020/21 following its sale, the venue remains a landmark in the city’s cultural landscape.
