Very beautiful place. Stunning design everywhere inside. So much history in it. Always enjoy coming here for performances. I wish they would have more choice and shows would be happening more often! The seating is a little tight. But you cant expect much of a leg room and a cup holders in a 100 year old theater.

The Coronado Performing Arts Center built in the 1920s is a wonderful venue for live music. Youre close to the stage and the artists can connect to the audience. Great acoustics and a great performance by Mike Love and the current Beach Boys band.

Excellent venue to see a show. It is a beautiful theater and has been restored. They dont make them like this any longer.

Delightful little venue in the heart of Rockford. Perfect for a play, musical, or stand-up routine.When you walk into this place you’re immediately struck with how ornate everything is on the inside. It has the old-timey feel to it, like you’ve gone back to the roaring twenties.The seats were comfortable and the staff was kind enough to ask practical questions around things like coat check, restroom facilities, and seat placement. The acoustics within the theater carried very well which made for a really fun environment throughout the entire evening.Looking forward to seeing another show here at this location soon!

This is a beautiful and ornate theatre. Even the actors were taking pictures!! It is a beautiful theatre with a European flare. The seats are small but comfortable. I have never had a bad seat and have been to the Coronado several times. I prefer the lower balcony 3 (LB3).

Beautiful theater. Easy access. Plenty of good clean restrooms.

This architectural jewel in downtown Rockford was meticulously restored a number of years ago. It is the home to the Rockford Symphony Orchestra and other performing groups. If you have a chance to visit to see any of the shows or concerts, please do not hesitate! Its true that the seats have less leg room the higher you sit, but sitting anywhere gives audience members a chance to see exquisite period details! Theres a parking structure across the street for easy access. I dont think youll be disappointed!

This place is great! Absolutely cool inside. Had heard about it for years but never went. Cant believe we waited so long. We saw the actors from Whos Line Is It Anyway. Very funny. The entire venue is interesting and well done. Clean, organized and the seating was good as well. Definitely makes a great date night. A must see.

This is a wonderful old movie theater that has been restored well and beyond its former glory. Niche performance are done here. But the seating is comfortable and the ushers are delightful. Well worth the visit.

As always the Coronado didnt disappoint.. Beautiful theater thats been well maintained over the years hosting a wonderful event. Ive been coming to this theater now for over 40 years... Starting with watching movies as a kid and journeying over time through the numerous owners (Kerasotes, Plitt...etc.) all culminating to the shows that are put on today. Lewis Black was terrific as always.. his satirical rants about todays society and the people who govern over us had us all in stitches.

The Coronado Performing Arts Theater is a great place to see any show. All seats are a great view. Beautiful building with lots of history.

Beautiful theater venue that offers a variety of art forms for viewing pleasure. Parking garage located just across the street provides easy access to the entrance. This local gem also hosts community events for local schools and organizations when they aren’t booked for shows. Great place to visit.

Saw the RSO last night. What a great performance and an awesome venue. The Coronado is so spectacular- a must see.

Went for Ron White tater salad. The atmosphere here is rare and unique. A little tight in seating and needs signs to help direct newcomers around the congestion to restrooms. Staff helpful but eh on cordial. The wood work and iron architecture are Wow!. This is a must be visited on your bucket list building.

Rich and luxuriously appointed with great acoustics. We were at The Nutcracker opening night! Wonderful!!!

Amazing architecture! I was really impressed at how beautiful it was inside. I enjoyed my visit here.

This was my first time to the Coronado. The venue was easy to get to from Wisconsin. Had no problem getting through security with ease for Scotty McCreery. Easy in parking but took a bit too get out. Cocktails were too small for the price. Seats were comfortable. Bathroom was big but on the lower level. Overall it was a nice place. I would come back.

Very nice theater. An old movies place. Very interesting. I loved it.

Watched the Cirque de la Symphonie at Coronado and were blown away. Amazing actress combined with a quality orchestra made for a great night. The Coronado is such a historic building as well. It takes you back in time.

This place is so beautiful. Just imagine all of the people who were there before, the decor and architecture is amazing. Parking garage right across the street is very convenient.

An amazing and historic theater. They bring in great acts, and the symphony is great.

We saw Ailey II tonight and were blown away! Besides the performance being so outstanding, the venue was equally impressive. The Coronado is truly the crown jewel of Rockford. I marvel at the majestic beauty inside of the building. The grandeur of the architecture and the ornate fixtures is truly breathtaking! If you have not experienced this for yourself please do it at your earliest opportunity. You will not be disappointed!!

This venue is amazing. One of the coolest places I have ever seen a concert at. I dont think there is a bad seat in the whole place. The seats are wide and comfortable. The architecture is incredible. We came all the way from Grand Rapids, MI to see Crowder. Just an all around awesome experience.

The City of Rockford Illinois has a lot to be proud of with this building. Rockford citizens hold your head high.Interior of this building is just unbelievably beautiful. An understatement.My only regret is that I didnt bring my SLR Canon camera to get good quality pictures of this place.I came from 3 hours north of here and if it wasnt for the show it was the art deco of the Interior that made our visit all that and then some.Talking to some of the locals which exuded pride. They told me the building was originally built in 1927. And completely renovated just a couple of years ago at a price of around 17 million. A local bank was the biggest donor and it took donors see this through.Now the show I came to see was Yamato drummers. It was a treat both me and my other half really enjoyed.The only thing obscuring a beautiful perfect evening. While there for the show and a stay at the hotel we received a blizzard of about 8 to 10 in of snow.Heck actually when I think more about it, that was just the icing on the cake

So pretty. I love it. Everytime I go there, its magical. I have been backstage so many times. I love how gorgeous the place is and everyone there is nice.

We sat in the balcony and still had a terrific view! So, so pretty inside.

This beautiful piece of history has been authentically & wonderfully restored to its once ornate splendor. Its a must see if in the area. A very nice gentleman that works there will be more than happy to give you a tour. He has worked there a long time & knows all the history. I wish I could give more stars!

Rockfords absolute jewel. Restored, and beautiful vaudeville theater. Parking deck across the street.

What a beautiful theater! Seats were comfortable. Bathrooms were in basement. No bad seats for views. Parking garage right there, but go 1 block east, first.

Great atmosphere. Great staff. Great music. Good times.

This place is beautiful!! I had never been here before, but I will definitely go back for another concert or show. The atmosphere is great, workers are helpful and theres a lot of cool stuff to look at.

Its a refurbished movie palace from the early days of movies with all the baroque architectural frills of those times. Its a nice theater, but the seats are small and too close together. Good acoustics make it great for musical events. Home to the Rockford Symphony Orchestra.

It is such a beautiful building! All the decorative moldings and statues.Sitting in the balcony you almost feel front row! The seats are velvet red and comfy however a little squishy for long legged people. It really is a versatile building for performances.

Beautiful theater, awesome venue. Saw Mandisa and the Newsboys and sounded great. It was a very long drive for me to get there but the old time feel and beautiful aspects of the theater made it worth it.

Great place for a show. Saw straight no chaser perform here. We were on the upper level and still had a great view. The place is beautiful, clean, well maintained. They do have a bar in house as well.

Sound was great - absolutely loved the old theatre vibe. Beautiful building.

Like visiting a museum and being allowed to physically interact with items on display! Docents in tours are VERY knowledgeable and pleasant. A beautiful venue for shows, also.

Always a pleasure to be able to Grace the Halls of this magnificent gem.

I love when a music act I want to see comes here. Its like walking back in time when you go in there. The place is small enough, so there is not a bad seat anywhere. The sound has always been great. Staff is super nice and helpful.

Great old theater. Very ornate. The ushers made it easy to find your seat. The seating was very nice and comfortable. Parking was easy. I would definitely go to The Coranado again for an event.

Such a gorgeous venue. I will be sure to keep returning as much as possible for shows. Amazing sound also

They have restored the Coronado to its 1920s glory. I graduated in this theater, and when I was a child I watched movies here. It was always a magical experience...but it is even nicer now. They dont show movies here anymore. This is a fine venue for concerts and the performing arts. We saw the Rockfird Symphony Orchestra and they were wonderful! The acoustics are perfect now. The theater is so pretty, the ceilings all repainted, the gilded parts sparkling, the chandlers intricate and impressive. A nice reward for finally visiting the old home town.

Great place to see a concert. The antique ambience of the venue just added to the experience. Ushers were professional and courteous. Only issue was the personal seating area was very cramped.

Saw a sold out show here. The theater is very nice. Sound was good. Staff was good. Its an old place so the seats are small and tight.Getting in and out of the place was an absolute nightmare. The show had to start 45 minutes late because the parking situation is so bad. Had to sit in the garage for 45 minutes due to the terrible traffic control. Concession stand does not take credit cards and was outrageously slow.

Very best architecture and layout. Always felt a little dark or under lit which is normal for older theaters I think. But the ambiance was warm, welcoming, and unique. Will keep an eye out for more shows here.

This is such a beautiful venue. They have a treasure grove of entertainment here as well. From the Rockford Symphony Orchestra to comedians and plays, it is an opportunity to share cultural events with an enthusiastic community.

This is a beautiful hall. It was a fabulous place to perform!

Amazingly beautiful venue and every show Ive seen here has been epic! Totally got to meet Tom Segura after his set! #winning

We attended the whose line is it anyways show. It was a blast. All the Coronado employees were friendly and respectful. The security checks were fast moving and simple. Even though we had problems with our tickets, they directed us in the right direction as to getting it figured out. Overall a great experience

Excellent venue. You will get distracted by the decoration and lighting while waiting for your show. Not a bad seat to be had in the whole place

Beautiful! Event staff were friendly and helpful. Restrooms were clean. Very nice experience

A very unique, gorgeously built theatre. Such great acoustics! Even the performers on stage said it was the best theatre theyve worked in, which says alot since they have performed in theaters internationally.

The most beautiful venue. All seats are great seats. We are thankful that this gorgeous theatre was restored by wonderful members of the community. If you havent been, make sure to book your tickets soon.

Cool old school theater with kind helpful staff. We saw Joe Bonamassa..incredible show and sound!!

Beautiful venue. Great performances.

Loved this theater. Amazingly cool inside. Saw Louis CK here. Great show

Beautiful auditorium. Sound is exceptional. Bathrooms are huge and clean so those lines at intermission move quickly. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Great fancy historic theater. Nice helpful staff, very good accoustics for a concert. Close by parking with free parking options nearby.

Wonderful, beautiful venue for seeing such a enchanting Shen Yun proformance!

George Lopez was hilarious! He reminded everyone that America has always been great!

Beautiful venue, old style architecture and small enough where there isnt really a bad seat.

Beautiful old theatre! Bar selection was definitely lacking ALOT but the theatre was very pretty and the parking garage across the street gave it big brownie points in my book!

Such a gorgeous and historic local venue. Truly. They also manage to get some surprisingly big acts out there, which is great because you dont have to travel to Chicago to see them.

Its a Beautiful Old Theater. The Staff was really nice, and helpful. This is a great place to see a show.

You must visit the place at least ones. A lot of history inside. Really unique architecture

Loved the history of the building and the performance of Ukrainian ballet group. We went to see swanlake.

Staff performance was superior.Enjoyed show. Wish for moreexhibiting my culture. BetterInfo on media of upcomingshows in the future. Anevening of enjoyment and fun.Theater was packed but crowdwas classy and happy!

Love seeing shows here, especially the nutcracker!!

The place is very very Racist. But the love of the Latinos made The George lopez show!!! Happen...

Awesome venue, Kansaswas wonderful

This was a beautiful even seeing my daughter perform for Lincoln middle school

A historic facility with state of the art performance capabilities.

Great time seeing Iliza. What a beautiful theater! And parking right across the street for $5?! Amazing! Why cant Chicago figure that out? Ill definitely go back for other performances here. A true gem.

Great place to see a show or concert. Cant wait to go back!!!

Its a beautiful, historical venue. The balcony is steeply pitched allowing for great visibility of the stage from any seat. Theres also a huge screen behind the stage that they used for detailed video of the act for those who were sitting further away. Parking garage is across the street.

Great performance by The Piano Guys

Saw Louie C.K to a sold out show! Crazy seeing that many people in one place other then that it was a beautiful stage and lobby as well!

Amazing venue, beautiful decor and great acoustics.

Great place to watch a show. Beautiful theater with no bad seats. Plenty of parking.

Good place , great ballet butbibfelt really rushed when I left but other than that, great place

Its is a beautiful place and the Color purple was one of the best play I have ever experienced

This is a beautiful old theatre! Lots of history there. It was restored a while back, and they opened it to the public to see and tour afterwards. It was really neat to see behind the scenes! Im so glad the Friends of the Coronado were able to bring it back to life for people to enjoy for years to come!

My daughter and I love coming here to see the Rockford Symphony Orchestra. The place is absolutely gorgeous! Ive been coming here for 30 years (I first saw Jesus Christ Superstar here) and it never loses its charm.

Awesome theater, my son loved sesame street live.

Gorgeous theater. Has been getting some really great performers recently.

Very pretty, bit it got very warm in balcony area

Historical, beautiful a hidden treasure. Call ahead to schedule a tour at $10. This wonder theater built in 1920 is almost 100 years old and still as beautiful with tiny details that you wouldnt realize were there if not for the helpful tour guides. An amazing venue, I recommend taking the time to see a concert held by the local Rockford Symphony Orchestra (RSO) its molding is breath taking with a peacock blue ceiling in the main hall speckled with stray lights to reminiscint a night sky

Saw free showing of dance. It was good. Mostly improv dancing.

The Coronado is a must see in Rockford, because its absolutely stunning. Performances are enhanced by the elegant design of the theater.

This is the best theatre because performing there was awesome because the dressing rooms were super fancy and big. They even had showers with them, it felt like staying inside of a hotel suite.

Restored theater with twinkle night sky. Great place to see a concert or play

It has always been an awesome venue, so glad it is still around. Went there for the John Crist show the other night with my sweetie...laughed up a great time

My first time to something like this. The whole experience was wonderful. I recommended for anyone you will have a good time.

I love this venue. It looks amazing. Ive sat in just about every section and havent had a bad experience. I particularly love watching the RSO play for the nutcracker here.

Had a great time. Wonderful performance. The place was jam packed. Great staff helped us find our seats.

I live halfway between Rockford and Chicago. We tried going to the Coronado instead of going downtown. Less stressful drive and cheaper parking. The parking garage charged $5 and its directly across the street from the venue. As for the venue itself, meh, just picture an old venue with seats.

Rostored theater for up close events...even the most distant seats have good line of sight.

It was my first time at Coronado and it was great! Saw Tom Segura perform which was hilarious. The staff was professional and on top of everything. At one point a person used a phone to take a picture with a flash on (expressly forbidden and stated on the ticket you would be kicked out for doing it) and the staff was right there to take care of it. Couldnt be happier with my experience!

Absolutely beautiful. Very well staffed...very clean...a delightful time with my family

Awesome venue. Amazing acoustics and lighting. Architecture is incredible.
