Concert Venues

The five-concert Classical series takes place at the Terrace Theater. Part of the Beverly O'Neill Performing Arts Center, the Terrace Theater is a beautiful venue accommodating nearly 3,000 patrons. The format honors an elegant Continental style with spaces for wheelchairs. The theater’s soaring lobby boasts a floor-to-ceiling glass façade with stunning views of the center’s dramatic fountain plaza. There’s an ocean view from the facility’s west side and, at night, brightly lit cityscape from the east perimeter. PARKING: From Seaside Way, turn onto Collins Way and then turn right into the Parking Structure. Use steps, escalator, or elevators up to the Terrace Theatre Plaza to go through Security.

The five-concert Pops series takes place at the Long Beach Arena. Part of the Beverly O'Neill Performing Arts Center, the arena accommodates more than 7,000 patrons—with 3,000 of them seated on the arena floor for pre-concert picnicking—hence the Pops well-known brand, “Southern California’s Greatest Indoor Musical Picnics.” The outside of the building is covered by the world’s largest outdoor mural, Planet Ocean, by internationally renowned marine-life artist Wyland. PARKING: From Seaside Way, turn South onto the Arena drop off and parking structure. From Shoreline, turn straight onto the uncovered parking.
