Time for a Glow Up!

The first wave of our restoration plans is complete!

NEW SEATS! Historic aesthetic with modern comfort

Yes, that’s right! At long last, new seats have been installed in our historic auditorium!

The new seats honor the Art Deco aesthetic while introducing much-needed modern comfort. That means: thicker padding (cushier cushions!), cupholders on the first floor, wider seats in the balcony, and 9 (yes, NINE!) new and improved ADA spaces so everyone can enjoy the Fargo Theatre.

FRESH PAINT! NEW CARPET!

The fresh paint looks spectacular, especially the elegant gold accents throughout. All colors are true to the original colors from the 1937 remodel. It’s like seeing the Theatre as patrons saw it brand new 100 years ago!

The gorgeous new carpet has been installed and has rich beautiful tones. Come see it for yourself!

We can’t do this without you!

Your support enables us to make these much-needed improvements. Please consider making a donation to our Centennial Capital Campaign today!
