PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Liberty Theater has been lovingly restored and
currently operates as a performing arts center,
concert hall, conference center and elegant
event venue.
Liberty Theater, located in the heart of
downtown Astoria, was designed to transport
you to a Venetian Palace and is one of Oregon’s
best examples of a 1920s vaudeville-motion
picture palace. Opened in 1925, the theater was
originally home to vaudeville acts and silent
movies.
Recognized by the National Trust for Historic
Preservation-Save America’s Treasures, the
Liberty was chosen Best Historic Venue in
Oregon “People’s Choice” by Northwest Meeting + Events, 2013 and is a winner of the Dr. Edward Harvey
“This Place Matters” Historic Preservation Award, City of Astoria
