🎭 Experience the magic of the Historic Orpheum Theatre

We're continuing our celebration of National Arts & Humanities Month at Sioux City’s crown jewel of the performing arts. Built in 1927 and beautifully restored to its original grandeur, the Orpheum is more than a venue — it’s a living piece of Siouxland’s cultural history. From the shimmering chandeliers to the ornate gold leaf details, every inch of the theatre tells a story of creativity and craftsmanship.

Today, the Orpheum hosts Broadway tours, live concerts, comedy, ballet, and performances by the Sioux City Symphony Orchestra, keeping the arts thriving in the heart of downtown. 🎶
