We found parking easily and paid $5.40 for five hours. Motown was very enjoyable. There's a lot happening at the Kravis Center. Lots of interesting performances. Next year series has already come out and there are a few shows that I'd like to see. Nathan Chester engaged the audience & performed Marvin Gaye, the Temptations, Sam Cooke, Smoky Robinson, the Supremes...Je is from Chicago, was on America's got Talent & is now in Nashville. read more

I've been coming to the Raymond F. Kravis Center for the Performing Arts for years, and it has always been a place I genuinely enjoyed. Unfortunately, my recent visit to see the Peking Acrobats was a completely different experience--one that left me feeling singled out and deeply uncomfortable. I understand that policies evolve. Paid parking is one thing, even if it feels like an added burden on top of already expensive tickets. What's harder to overlook is how I was treated from the moment I arrived. While parking, I backed into a spot as I've done on previous visits and was immediately and aggressively corrected by a parking attendant. If it's head-in parking only, that's perfectly fine--but the tone was unnecessarily harsh. What stood out even more was that a nearby vehicle was also backed in and remained that way without being addressed or corrected. Despite that, I was the one singled out. Inside the venue, things escalated. When I approached the information desk to ask about a note on my ticket for a complimentary pre-show drink, the staff member questioned the legitimacy of my tickets--where I got them, when I got them--and then had my family and me step aside in the lobby while they rescanned them to confirm they were "real." We stood there for about 15 minutes, feeling as though we had done something wrong, simply for asking a question. What was most telling was what happened next. When an elderly white patron approached the same desk with the exact same note on his ticket, the tone immediately shifted. Only then did staff begin resolving the issue, and only then were we directed to redeem the drinks we had already been delayed over. The contrast was hard to ignore. Unfortunately, the pattern continued. After purchasing drinks and a few snacks, we were stopped almost immediately after leaving the concession line and told we could not take food into the theater. Again, I complied without issue. But once seated, I couldn't help but notice multiple other patrons--directly around us--eating inside the theater: cookies, popcorn, even outside food. None of them were stopped. None of them were approached. By that point, the issue was no longer about the rules--it was about how selectively they were enforced. In the span of less than an hour, I was approached three separate times by staff, each interaction carrying an edge of suspicion or correction that others around me did not seem to experience. As an Asian-American man attending with my interracial family, it became increasingly difficult to dismiss how targeted it felt. What should have been a joyful evening turned into something else entirely. It's a difficult feeling to describe--being made to feel out of place in a venue you've supported for years, and then having to process that in front of your child. This experience left me disappointed and honestly hurt. The Kravis Center has always been a place I respected, but after this, it's hard to see myself returning anytime soon. read more

Phenomenal performance! A Beautiful Noise- 4/9/26 2pm- Joel Caskey, debut as Neil Diamond, he actually sounded more like Neil Diamond than Neil Diamond! His voice, his mannerisms transformed into the young inspiring Neil! If you closed your eyes you would think you were at a Neil Diamond concert! Every single cast member was exceptional! We laughed, clapped, sang along and cried! A story to be remembered! The Kravis Center is beautiful and acoustically perfect! The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable! The experience was exceptional! Definitely recommend A Beautiful Noise! You will love it!! read more

Just a note that parking was $5.40 for the show and the parking expired at 6pm for the afternoon show which we attended. We went to see Nathan Chester, who was just great! He performed Motown songs from performers like Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, and Smokey Robinson. In addition, he did some songs that were not Motown, largely from Memphis, such as Sam Cooke and Otis Redding. He was very engaging and interacted well with the audience. Another great show at the Kravis Center. That said, if Nathan Chester is performing in your area I highly recommend his show. You will not be disappointed. read more

Oh Kravis Center, I'm not happy with your new parking: "Kravis Center shines, performances grand, Music and theater, truly first-hand. But parking fees, they sting and bite, Forced to pay for four hours, when I was only there for two last night." Last night was my daughter's Christmas concert and we had a nice time. The sound was great, the staff was great. But boy oh boy this parking system is not cool. It's new. I do not like it. I do not like it at all. I was not pleased with being forced to pay for four hours, when the concert was only two hours. I was totally rubbed the wrong way. There will be some serious thought the next time I visit this venue as far as parking and paying is concerned. I will do everything in my power not to give them my $ because I don't mind paying for parking, I just don't like having to pay for two more hours than what I used. The Park Mobile app should be as it always is in other locations: choose the duration you want, and add time if you need. That's my two cents. And in this economy that's about all I have to give! Another review giving it to you straight, no chaser by Lizz aka The Hungry Poet. Enjoy! read more

I recently brought my husband to the Kravis Center for a Rock Orchestra performance. The Kravis Center is conveniently located to nearby parking garages. We had dinner at Cheesecake Factory, and had 2 hours of our parking validated. The entrance is easily accessible, and the high ceilings and decor are quite impressive. The bathrooms were clean and conveniently located. There are various locations to purchase drinks. We were lucky enough to get front row seats to this performance. The acoustics were great and not too loud. The stage is slightly high for the seat location, but we were able to see everything. The vocals and showmanship were excellent. We can't wait to go back for another show. read more

This is a very nice theater in the heart of downtown west palm beach. It's very big and spacious and has I believe 3 or 4 floors. There's fun art installations that move outside that are perfect for kids to play on and there was even a band playing outside upon arrival for the show. There are tables inside on the first floor to sit and eat/drink prior to the show, as well as a bar/concession stand. Heads up, you're not allowed to eat anything inside the theater, which they do not make you aware of when you're purchasing your snacks lol. Food choices are pretty limited too so I would just make sure to eat beforehand. You are allowed to bring your drinks in for the show though, however, there are no cup holders. As for the actual theater, it's a very nice sized theater. Not too big so even if you're in the very back you can still see fine. I was on the 2nd floor in the 2nd to last row. The seats are a little small/close together so if you're a bigger person it might be a little uncomfortable. Staff was nice, and the place was clean. There is only one bathroom on each floor so the line gets long. Not sure how many stalls are in the actual bathroom as I used the single person handicap bathroom, but there was a long line of woman waiting after the show ended in the regular bathroom. read more

Should be a zero, Utter frustration regarding my experience with your valet service before attending a recent show. Upon arrival, I was unexpectedly accosted by valet staff and told that I had to pay for valet parking before even entering the venue. This was surprising, as I have attended events at your venue before and have never been required to pay upfront. When I asked Joe for a receipt, he refused and simply said "no." I then spoke with Victor, who responded by asking, "What's the difference between now and then?" That response only reinforced my concern that this is not an established policy but rather an arbitrary decision being imposed on guests. If this were truly a standard policy, there would be a clear explanation and consistent implementation, not dismissive answers and conflicting information. What makes this even more disappointing is that your organization regularly sends numerous emails requesting donations and promoting special offers, yet there was no communication whatsoever about this significant change to the valet process. Had I been informed in advance, I would have gladly paid for valet parking when I purchased my tickets. Instead, I was put in an uncomfortable situation and treated rudely before the event even began. Customer service and communication matter, and this experience fell far below the standard I expected. As a result of this experience, I will not be attending another show at your venue. It is unfortunate that what should have been an enjoyable evening was overshadowed by poor communication and discourteous treatment. read more

Gorgeous venue . Culture and class combined in Palm Beach. All seats have good views and better acoustics the further back in auditorium.

My mom and I attended a Yolanda Adams concert here last weekend and had a wonderful experience. Parking was easy--we parked on the third floor of the adjacent garage and followed a clearly marked path that led us directly into the building. We arrived early and breezed through check-in with no line. A group of singers performing at the top of the staircase created a beautiful atmosphere as we entered. The atrium features a full concession and bar area at the center, offering beer, wine, cocktails, juice, soda, and a variety of snacks. I chose a moscato ($18) and a fruit and cheese tray ($15) to enjoy while we waited for the theatre doors to open. While the moscato was overpriced, it was a decent pour and I appreciated being able to bring it into the theatre. The cheese tray was fine--grapes, strawberries, apricots, carrots, and three cheeses. The portion size was fair, and the quality of the fruit and cheese was pretty good. Though the Kravis Center is a long-standing community venue, it still feels clean and well-maintained. Seating is standard theatre style--not especially spacious--but our lower-level seats offered a great view of the stage. The sound and lighting were solid throughout the show. Overall, it was a great night, and I'm looking forward to attending more shows here this summer. read more

I have never been so embarrassed as I was this evening. Two different ushers directed us to the second floor boxes. We were directed to Box 7. Lo and behold, 4 people arrived stating that we were in their seats. Imagine our surprise and embarrassment. We were on the wrong floor in the wrong box. There was NO apology by the usher that directed us to that box. Just "you are on the wrong floor". Unacceptable read more

This performing arts center warms the cockles of my heart! The scene is akin to the Sydney Opera house. The line up is eccentrically eclectic. My fave shows have been... I can't even choose- I like em all. The ballet series is on point- The obligatory nutcracker was the perfect entree to the holiday season. Opera season is a dream come true! And the supratitles are tea. The service is spectacular- bartender Kimberly is always so helpful with my drink choices. The shows leave me understanding myself more and needing to get to know others as well especially my faves: Where Did Latinos Sit on the bus Leyla McCalla Tonality USA Step Afrika The Just of the Blind The Lord of the dance TOSCAAAAA Date night, girls night, solo night- checks all the boxes. Pair this with a great dinner and you'll be artistically accomplished. Oh and don't forget to get a chocolate chip cookie during intermissions read more

I most recently attended to see Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse Live in Concert. The Kravis Center uses their own website to sell tickets to shows which is pretty horrible to use. The venue itself, though, is beautiful. Security is very fast and gets you through quickly. Once inside, there's concessions on the ground floor and then bars to purchase drinks (alcoholic and non) in the upper floors. Soda is $5 all-in and served in a plastic cup. The upper levels have lots of seating where you can sit and people watch and look out the massive windows before heading to your seat. I won't touch on the show itself since it's not directly related to the venue (it was great, though!). Where the venue loses some marks from me is as soon as the show started, it seems as though the air conditioning within the theater was shut off. It got SO warm inside I heard many other people speaking about it. During intermission, I went into the lobby and the air was running there, so unsure of why the air seemed off inside the theater itself. It was not full or anything so definitely wasn't a capacity thing. There are water foundations by the bathrooms on either side of the theater lobby and I used them to fill up a cup of water. One of fountains, however, wasn't working and there was no sign to say it was out of order or anything. Parking is pretty straightforward for this venue with their attached parking garage. Here's a tip: if you're waiting at the light to turn left on Okeechobee to turn into the parking garage, get out of the right turn lane and go into the left, pass the first parking garage entrance and go around to the other side of it where there is another entrance. That first entrance tends to back up into the light and if you're late, you can be waiting in that line for a while. read more

I have to start by saying I have been loving the Broadway series events here, but I will be canceling after this year for several reasons. This year will mark the 4th time Hamilton has been on my list in the 6 years. While I loved the play the 1st time, the repetitions of the plays are starting to bother me. This is not the 1st play to be duplicated, but this was quandriplicated! They send you an email prior to the show to make sure you show up on time. In the past if you were a few minutes late to certain shows they make you stand outside until the first act is up. You have no idea what plays they will do this to as they always send an email to be there early. Yet here we are every single play this year has not started until at least 10 minutes after the start time. Not fair to those who show up early as you ask. 2 plays in a row were ruined due to sound. We have loge front seats (1st level above floor) and To Kill A Mocking bird I had to strain to hear most of the play. Then let's talk about "Jagged little Pill" we walked out about 15 minutes into the play due to the sound being extremely loud, and screaming sounding like a bad high school play. As we were leaving a Kravis worker was getting in the elevator and asked if we "Had enough already" when we told him how horrible it sounded he explained that each play has their own traveling sound crew and all week people have been complaining. Since my show was the last show on a Sunday, Kravis should have addressed this. Now let's talk about my Sunday matinee tickets. This year we have a play on Christmas Eve, Saint Patricks Day and Easter Sunday. St Patty's day I will give you. But Chrismas Eve and Easter Sunday should not be dates that plays run. The bathrooms have toilet paper holders that still have ashtrays in them!! Sorry Kravis our broadway series is going to be finished after this year. It is a shame as we used to enjoy it, but lack of starting on time, no support from Kravis on the sound quality, lack of planning of show dates and repeats of plays no longer make this a smart choice. read more

This is my second time to this amazing venue. We were able to get loge seats on the 2nd floor to see a broadway musical "Tina". Wow what a beautiful facility offering free covered parking as well as $25 valet. Unfortunately I was told that these seats were handicapped accessible but they were anything but. There were many steps involved and only a railing on one side. Grateful that the other patrons were patient to wait for us to maneuver. The venue has lots of volunteers and staff. They had a lovely food concession. We brought our on scooter to help us go in. They ticketed the scooter and left it right outside the door for when we returned. It was still there. The acoustics were great and even though we were high up, we were able to see everything. Seating was comfortable. Bathrooms were manned and clean. We Look forward to seeing other shows there in the future. read more

We had the absolute best time watching the show called five guys named Moe. It is the cutest show and you can tell that the actors put a lot of effort into getting it right. They had the audience participating in part of the show and I laughed for a majority of it. The CEO is so sweet and the band was incredible. I had such a blast and have loved every single show at the Kravis Center thus far. If you're looking for a date night activity, definitely take a visit here. They do offer drinks and snacks for purchase before the show and at intermission. And there is a lovely free parking garage right next to where the show will be playing so it is very convenient. It's not at all trouble parking as you would assume due to it being in downtown. read more

Love it here! Comfortable seats, great shows, easy and free parking! Every time I come here, I'm glad I came! Unfortunately , today is the first time I am actually very disappointed. I came to the show because I wanted to see Richard Thomas. I bought the series so that I could ensure that I would have a seat so that I could see Richard Thomas. And of course because it's the matinee we have a substitute who is doing a very nice job but he's not rich Thomas. In fact, there are four substitutions at this performance, and it makes me think they are saving the better actors for the evening show. Today it sounds like everybody is sick here in the audience. The lady just one seat away from me would not stop coughing and she refused to get up and leave until she could take care of it. Phones were ringing texts were beeping and noses were being blown. I feel like I am in a hospital ward. I missed most of the dialogue for the first 10 or 15 minutes because of the lady coughing. I guess this was not my favorite time at Kravis. read more

Nice, intimate auditorium to experience a concert or play. The garage parking is free which is really nice these days, especially if it's a far drive for you out to this venue. The seats are Plush red velvety very comfortable for the show. We sat in orchestra section which is on the bottom and had a great view. Ample bathrooms on either sides and in the front center where the concessions are. My only caveat was that most of the food had already been sold out by the time they got to me in the line like they really had nothing and they don't allow to bring any food into the auditorium either so you are limited to what you can buy. We tried their cocktails too and I had a cucumber one I think it was called Opening Act that was pretty good but my friend had the Paloma and it was terrible. Other than that we had a fabulous experience. read more

I still love going here! We have the Broadway series and enjoy our time here! I especially like when they have the step and repeat so we can take a picture!
