Orpheum Theatre San Francisco Venue Information

The Orpheum Theatre, originally built for theater magnate Alexander Pantages, is a San Francisco Historical Landmark celebrated for its Beaux-Arts architecture and rich cultural heritage. With a capacity of 2,200, the venue features high, white vaulted ceilings and a grand chandelier, creating an elegant atmosphere. It has hosted iconic performances like The Phantom of the Opera, The Lion King, and concerts by artists such as the Grateful Dead and Diana Ross. Renovations in the 1970s and 1998 expanded the stage to accommodate large-scale Broadway productions, while preserving its historical charm. The theater is equipped with advanced sound and lighting systems, ensuring excellent audio-visual quality. Located at the corner of Market and 8th Street, it’s easily accessible via public transportation, including BART (Civic Center/UN Plaza station) and Muni Metro lines (J, K, L, M, N, S, T). Limited street parking and nearby parking garages are available, with SpotHero recommended for pre-booking.

Orpheum Theatre San Francisco Seating Chart

Orpheum Theatre San Francisco Seating Options

The Orpheum Theatre offers a variety of seating sections, each providing unique perspectives and price points to suit different preferences. The venue’s graduated design ensures excellent views and acoustics from nearly every seat. Below is a detailed breakdown of the seating options:

Balcony

The Balcony, located at the highest level of the theater, offers five rows of seats with a central section providing the most direct views of the stage. While furthest from the stage, the Balcony’s elevated position and the venue’s compact size ensure good sightlines, enhanced by the theater’s advanced sound system. These seats are typically the most affordable, with prices starting as low as $24 for some performances, making them ideal for budget-conscious patrons. The center Balcony seats (consecutively numbered) are preferred for their unobstructed views, though seats on the far edges (e.g., high 20s) may have partial obstructions, which are noted during ticket purchase.

Mezzanine

The Mezzanine level, situated just above the Loge, is divided into Front and Rear Mezzanine sections. The Front Mezzanine, closer to the stage, offers clear, slightly elevated views, while the Rear Mezzanine, further back, still provides a full stage view. These seats, spanning rows D-L, are ideal for those seeking a balance between proximity and affordability. Mezzanine seats are split into Center, Left, and Right sections, with Center Mezzanine offering superior views. Prices for Mezzanine seats typically range from $50 to $200, depending on the show and row.

Orchestra

The Orchestra level, located on the ground floor, is the closest to the stage and offers the most immersive experience. It is divided into four sections: Center Orchestra, Orchestra Left, Orchestra Right, and a smaller Left-Center and Right-Center. Rows AA to ZZ are considered premium, with rows D-L in the Center Orchestra being the most desirable for their optimal distance and unobstructed views. Orchestra seats are the priciest, with average prices around $280 and premium seats reaching up to $1,133. Accessible seating, including wheelchair and limited mobility options, is available at the rear of the Orchestra (Integrated Row R and Platform Row CC), with companion seats offered at the same ADA price (lowest regular price for the performance).

VIP Packages

For a premium experience, the Marquee Lounge offers exclusive amenities for an additional $95 per person (on top of ticket price). This includes access to private bathrooms, comfortable lounge seating, and a dedicated bar, open 90 minutes before the show and during intermission. VIP packages enhance the theatergoing experience but are available on a first-come, first-served basis with limited capacity. Note that VIP tickets may also include premium Orchestra seating, which can cost up to $1,355 for high-demand shows.
