This versatile, public venue sits at 865 Pendleton Street (also listed as 417 Pendleton Street in official documents), and serves as a hub for conferences, weddings, dances, performances, and community gatherings. With a capacity that adapts to your needs, the venue offers flexible layouts—from standing room for up to 640 to formal seating arrangements for 400, plus 350 with round tables. Whether you’re planning a banquet, a stage show, or a multi‑purpose event, we’ve got you covered with in‑house AV, dressing rooms, and a range of layout options to suit your program.
We’ve got you covered on logistics too. Parking is noted as an included amenity in official materials, and transit access is coordinated through regional providers to support in‑county and out‑of‑county trips. The auditorium sits in a historic district with easy access to several relaxing stays and dining options on Pendleton Street, making it a convenient choice for attendees traveling from near and far.
Notable artists who historic references highlight as having performed here include Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Ella Fitzgerald, Otis Redding, and James Brown, underscoring the venue’s lasting legacy in music and community events. The venue has since been renamed to honor C.C. McCray, while preserving its storied role in Waycross’ cultural life.
