    Great place for a show! The venue is small enough that there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Acoustics are great so sound is always wonderful. Popejoy offers a wonderful variety of offerings at a reasonable price. Sometimes the lighting is pretty distracting, as at the recent Simon & Garfunkel show, where a spotlight directed at the guitar was hitting the curtains and distracting enough that, during the whole show, people disrupting the show commenting on it. Volunteers are quite helpful and the venue is easily navigated. Parking is always pretty easy, however parking payment kiosks leave you in a long line every time (this is likely user-error), you should arrive early to avoid standing in line forever to pay. We've been here 12 times and will return.

    For a small town university theater it rivals some of the larger theaters. Great seating, great acoustics. And a list of awesome shows. We are season holders and look forward to our theater time

    Great space!

    I absolutely LOVE this venue. What a privilege it is to have the opportunity in Albuquerque to see so many quality performances in such a wonderful facility. I have seen countless shows here, from Phantom of the Opera (NY CAST!) to West Side Story, Dracula2000, The Nutcracker and numerous Schooltime Series productions. The ticket ordering process is effortless, the execution of each performance has been flawless. The staff are outstanding. The facility itself is spectacular, not a bad seat in the house, clean, exceptionally well maintained. Most recently I saw the Moon Mouse Space Odyssey production with Sweet Bella & my littles...wow. Stunning visuals, quite possibly the most fun I've ever had there...I was smiling from ear to ear...my kids were engrossed every moment of it!!! Can't wait to return for their spin on The Little Mermaid!!!

    Beautiful facility! Impressed with the upcoming lineup of shows: Waitress, Jesus Christ Superstar 50th Anniversary, Hamilton, to mention a few. We came for niece's dance recital, HERE TO ENTERTAIN, and the randomly chosen seats were perfect - center orchestra. Seats are comfortable, & the angle is such that a big head in front doesn't obstruct much. Acoustics were terrific. If we lived here, we'd be frequent patrons. On vacation, we will return.

    I can't imagine a better venue. The acoustics were great for the NM Philharmonic. The seating is situated in a way that everyone can see the stage clearly. My only gripe would be about the parking. I'm writing this review while waiting in line to exit the parking structure. It's going to take at LEAST 20 minutes to get out of here.

    Beautiful venue. Clean and well maintained. The views are great from just about any seat and the sound is perfect.

    Sitting at the VIP Lounge at Popejoy.

    We love Popejoy. They have great Broadway shows and the Schooltime series that runs during the school year is the best.

    Kimo, how do I love thee? For your bizarre glowing eyed skeletons, and your red velvet drapes. And…read moreis it haunted? Hmmmm. We may never know. Gem of downtown Albuquerque, the Kimo theatre is home to Burlesque, live theater, comedy shows, and the silver screen. Yes. All of these things. I love when they do film festivals. Nights upon nights of old film noir and classics. And every February, Southwest Burlesque makes me want to quit my job and become a dancer. The Nutcracker every December. Ah, the memories. Literally, my only complaint is the seating. It's very old school. Which is fine, but those comfy new-fangled seats in the new theaters have me (and my tush) spoiled. Hint - restrooms are on the sides down a hallway that doesn't seem like it belongs to the building.

Mayor Berry had a real silver screen installed as well as new carpet to compliment the well preserved vintage space. The Kimo is a destination for all lovers of the arts. It is host to book readings, poetry, and movie showings. For tonight's event, we were treated to Buster Keaton's "The General" with the Alloy Orchestra playing the score live for just $0.50 per ticket with free water, popcorn, and cake. (Concessions typically not included in movie ticket pricing.) The movie was outstanding and the Alloy Orchestra was a once in a lifetime experience. The Kimo has so many of these incredible events that people need to know more about. I know our family will be attending more of them!

    Congratulations to the Indian Pueblo cultural center, and they're opening of the new exhibit…read more"Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery" It is more than an art experience-- grounded in Clay has a meaningful connection to culture, history, and living tradition. What makes this exhibit especially powerful is its voice. Rather than being interpreted solely through a traditional museum lens, Grounded in Clay is curated by members of the Pueblo Pottery Collective--artists and cultural stewards who bring firsthand perspective and storytelling to each piece. That authenticity comes through in a way that is both educational and deeply personal. You have time, it will be here for a little bit, but don't wait too long because you want to share the experience with others

One that we had heard a few times about was the gingerbread contest at the cultural center. We had been here briefly a couple years ago and had vowed to come back, so this seemed like an excellent reason. We arrived in the mornign and there were plenty of people there lready. The front had the contest. There were dozens of gingerbread creations. A fella there gave us a clipboard so we could all judge and pick our favorites from different categories. After we spent time appreciating the artistic creations, we went ahead and checked out the center as well There were plenty of rooms with artifacts, video displays, and historical breakdowns of the many Pueblos around New Mexico. We learned a lot that day. I'm proud of my family, being inquisitive and appreciating the many people of the New Mexico tribes that day. It's a fun museum to pop into.
