I used to watch dramatic plays in this theater. It was a nice place where you can comfortably enjoy every scene portrayed by the actors and actresses. The area was spacious, and the atmosphere was pleasant.

It is stunning architecturally. Think the real enjoyment comes in who you are going to see. Ive been here many times and the acts have always been fantastic! Most recently my best girlfriend and I saw David Foster. He was exceptional! Many times he was close enought that we could literally reach out and touch him! What an experience and a night!

Great place to see a show!My wife and I saw Miss Saigon.We were seated in the upper balcony but still had a great time. The view was pretty good and the sound was not compromised.The inside of this building is beautiful.I highly recommend seeing a show here.

After multiple visits sitting in the mezzanine, the sound quality was hit or miss. All of the shows have had wonderfully talented people in them but not hearing every word in the musicals was a bummer. Other than that they have been wonderful date nights, friendly staff and tolerable lines for bathrooms and concessions.

Wow! This theatre is absolutely stunning!! I really enjoyed seeing Jason Mraz here, the acoustics were perfect! I will say they could work on traffic flow for the bathroom and concession lines, it was a bit chaotic. All in all, great place to see your favorite musicians :)

Beautiful building! Be prepared to walk down a lot of stairs to pee and make sure your wallet is full to accommodate the prices of the drinks, snacks, and souvenirs.

5 stars, another wonderful evening at The Paramount Theatre. I starting going here as a young child and still love a night out in the emerald city. Some people complain about the lower level bathroom, but come on this gem was built in 1920’s. There is so much detail on the ceiling and walls, they are just breathtaking. If you go, take it all in. You never know when this piece of history may slip away, it’s WICKED or is it a sweet delight.

MINORTIY ALERT: Truly a great venue for the public. Staff is amazing, urban and generally consistent from start to finish. Sound quality never disappoints and seats throughout with great views. A true historic landmark and one that remains dear to my native Seattle heart!

Great shows happen here. The stylish touches and decorations in the lobby and theatre is fancy and gorgeous. The staff are very friendly. I always have memorable experiences here the very few times I go. Excellent location as well with a lot of dining options nearby for before or after shows. Highly recommend!

I really like the renovations they are doing to these older theaters. I was in Seattle for a computer conference at the Hyatt Regency just a block away. It was very easy walking distance. They had it catered with some really good food and some entertainment.

We had a great experience here. The theater itself is beautiful. There are multiple parking garages in the area so parking is easy. Our seats had great view and they had booster seats for my daughter. We will be returning!

Super rad venue for concerts. Great sound. Staff was very helpful and kind!

GR8 location for a pop-up blood drive. Thank you Paramount Theatre for providing the most gorgeous place Ive ever donated blood and for supporting Bloodworks Northwest

An absolutely beautiful theater! Plenty of bus stops on the block, so you can get to the place easily

I love the Paramount for most things, but it is not the best for loud rock. The sound was not mixed well. There was a lot of distortion and vocals were impossible to hear. Everything else was fabulous.

The shows without a doubt are amazing, but this review is strictly about the theatre. The theatre itself could use a touch of pain, the seats need to be replaced. They have a great shopping area and very fast pace attentive staff, the bars inside are really shabby looking and the variety of drinks and food are quite limited. The lines are extremely light and the chandeliers are amazing, other light fixtures should be replaced. Again the shows I highly recommend seeing, honestly well done.

Beautiful theater. Ample leg room and seat width for most people, at least in VIP section. Bar lines are long so come early if you want a snack or refreshment.

Beautiful Theatre, with great character and acoustics. I have seen a few different shows here; musicals and concerts, and it’s always great. Helpful staff, great drinks for a reasonable price, definitely worth a decent length drive. If you want to see something that comes around to this theatre, you best see it.

The Donna Summer musical production was phenomenal! Powerful, beautiful and bold story of Donna Summers life and a must see musical!The performance of the entire cast was seamlessly blended while catching a glimpse of the three main time periods of her life. The three women cast as Ms Summer had me dancing in my seat and on my feet in solidarity as they performed her story. They took my breath away with each song; the purity, power and strength in their voices.The ensemble was perfection in motion. They were so alive with the dynamic, fun, strong choreographed movements.The entire production, from story, song, movement was so wonderfully performed by this cast of artists.Also, a huge appreciation for the sound technicians at the Paramount for their work.

This is a great concert venue. I have seen 2 different shows here and loved them both. The building is beautiful and everything is really clean and organized. Only downside is parking in Seattle sucks but thats usually a given so I didnt deduct any stars for that.

This is such a beautiful theatre. The bathroom line at intermission is insane, so hold it if you can. The bar lines were much shorter. ;) I saw Wicked here. It was incredible!! Everything about the experience was phenomenal. The staff were attentive and cheerful. You can bring your purchased beverages into the theatre!! Such a perk. The seating is reasonably comfortable. They have a $25 ticket lottery before every performance. I went on a Wednesday when not too many people were showing up for the lottery, so my friend and I wooon! Front row tickets!!! I could see the spit flying out of the performers mouths. What a fantastic day.

Me and some of my family and friends came to watch Elsa the play and we loved it. It was an amazing time, it was my first play and Im so glad I went. Even if you dont like the movie very much the play is amazing and a very good experience. All the staff that were there were really nice and helpful. Will definitely try and come back for another play!

I saw Morrissey here and it was such a beautiful venue in which to watch my favorite performer of all time! The sound was good and it didn’t look like there was a bad seat in the place. Very beautiful interior.

The entire staff there is phenomenal! We purchased our tickets two months in advance, and the day before the show my sister broke her ankle. They were able to accommodate us without any hassle. The atmosphere is fantastic and there really isnt a bad seat in this theatre!

One of my fav venues. The acoustics are great and every show or concert Ive been to there has been wonderful. The staff are all professional and helpful, the building is well maintained and clean, the food and drink prices are high but comparable to every other similar event venue. And getting the reusable coffee cup is so worth it! And its just so pretty.

I have the best memories in this beautiful venue. From holiday parties to concerts. The staff are always nice and accommodating.It helps that the venue is beautiful and sound system is amazing!

Beautiful place! Great venue sound quality was better in the back.

My first time here. Came to see Phantom of the Opera. Absolutely loved this experience! The Paramount is a beautiful theater!! It doesnt appear that theyre is a bad seat in the house. I was in the level 2 Mez center and could see the show perfectly.As a larger woman, I was worried about the seating. However, the seats were actually fairly comfortable, considering. They also offer additional cushion for comfort. The only problem would be little leg room.There were at least 4 bars that I could see serving a variety of drinks and snacks.When purchasing tickets, I purchased a parking ticket in a nearby garage. I would definitely recommend that since parking downtown is hard to find and can be expensive.All in all a great experience and I cant wait to see another show there!

Absolutely Love this venue for music. Its stunningly Beautiful, every seat in the house has a great view, and the acoustics are perfect.

This place is always beautiful! Clean aisles, seats and bathroom. Great acoustics. Dermot Kennedy was amazing!

What a beautiful theater. We were upstairs and thought the view was great. They have the bathrooms figured out...... no problem as a woman getting in and using the bathroom with plenty of time during intermission.

Such a great venue and every show Ive seen here is amazing. Ive sat all over the theater (tonight just happened to be third row seats) and its a great show no matter where youre seated. Not to mention the theater is historic. Only downfall would be no elevators or escalators for those that may be disabled in such a way that they cant get down stairs but its an old theater so its to be expected. As long as Im in the Seattle area I will be coming here to see as many shows as possible!

This theatre is beautiful but if youve got long legs youll be uncomfortable in the seats because of how little leg room there is. It can be worth shouldering through as the plays are great. But just an FYI wear knee pads

Paramount is such a beautiful theater. I went last week to see Foals and the first hour, before they got on stage, I was lost in Lalaland admiring the intricacy of the building. It’s beautiful. We had seats in the second platform and I felt like I was still very close to the stage. Sound was good when Foals played. The first two bands had their mics too low and I couldn’t really understand what they were singing. Bathrooms were everywhere and concessions were in every level too. Would definitely go back for another concert.

Went and saw Donna Summer the Musical with my mother. She is in a wheelchair. The staff were very accommodating in assisting us with finding our seats and making sure my mother was comfortable. The usher moved seats to fit the wheelchair in without my having to ask.Got food in the lobby first. The sandwich and chips were tasty and filling.

The theater is amazing! It is 91 year old and you fill as you were in a old movie. Look the pictures to see more details.

What a great production.A must see.The Paramount is very beautiful and the staff was friendly, helpful as well as informative.The lines for the restrooms go very quickly the staff has organized the lines efficiently.The prices are fair for soda, water & treats. I do not partake in alcoholic beverages so I am unknowledgeable of prices or products for such items. However I did see a full bar in the theater.The gifts, books and souvenirs are reasonably as well however budget for them you (will) want something.

Stunning interior. Throw back to an elegant earlier time. Marvel at the architectural details. The history of the Paramount Theatre is worth exploring and enhances the experience of enjoying performances.

The Frozen Sensory friendly play was Amazing we had such a great time. The actors did such a beautiful job & the costumes were exceptional. It was funny and entertaining for the parents as well as kiddos.

I wish that the cups that you purchase for $3. Were flat instead of rounded on the bottom . My cup kept on falling over, it didnt have a sturdy balance when it was empty.But other then that.. beautiful theater. I love coming here for shows! Everyone of the staff is so very helpful when trying to find your sent. The lines for drinks move pretty fast. Lots of smiles and laughs. I love that. Keep up the great work!:)

We were on the second mezzanine, and the view was amazing! Such a really pretty place

Where Broadway meets Seattle. Great venue and staff. Lots of events from concerts to Broadway tours. Near some good restaurants. Parking is tricky but there are a lot of garages near by.

Gorgeous theater with impeccable interior design. We had a fantastic experience seeing Miss Saigon and will definitely come again!

Beautiful theater. Good sound and we really enjoyed a great show.Be careful, upper balcony seats (K8) have very little legroom, at 61 my knees were hitting the seat in front of me.

Loved seeing Wicked here! The architecture reminds me of the State Capital in Olympia.

We saw Game Grumps Live Final Party in Rows U and V. The theater is a good size and feels cozy. I wouldnt have guessed that the venue holds almost 3000 seats. The show was awesome and exiting afterwards wasnt total chaos despite it being a full house. Id come back for another show at the Paramount.

The building is beautiful. Sound was great. Production was SUPERB. Why 4 stars? The seats are so narrow I felt like I was cheek to cheek with my neighbor and I didnt really want to be. I mean, overall, I endured her loud gum chewing in my ear and the temperature of her body uncomfortably close to mine, because we were both there for a common cause and Im sure she didnt want her experience to be ruined.In all seriousness, every single thing about this theatre is top notch in my opinion. Seats are pricey but I dont mind because it keeps the experience a luxury.

Beautiful venue. Theatre is gorgeous. All seats are good seats. We did notice that the sound in the 1st Mez lacked clarity. That is the only reason I rated 4 instead of a 5.

This is a beautiful place to see a show is Seattle. I’ve been here for concerts where there is standing room only and for plays/musicals and both are a great experience.

Saw Miss Saigon. The show and the facility are fantastic. Even got to meet a few of the lead actors as they excited and got some autographs.

One of our favorite places to see a show especially when they remove the seats so we can dance. Balcony seating has good views too. Historical theater that was refurbished several years ago. Look up and see the beautiful architecture. They even give tours on certain days. There is a bar or two. Restrooms downstairs.

Love this beautiful old theater. Because of its age, bathrooms are downstairs. ADA on main level though. Balcony is gorgeous, the whole interior, exterior too for that matter, is gorgeous and restored. Sound and stage views are fantastic! I go here a lot, this visit happened to be for Hamilton (squee!!) If you can score VIP tickets, the special room is fantastic. I just had regular tickets this time.

Absolutely Gorgeous theatre! Went to see Hamilton on the 90th anniversary of the theatre being open. The Paramount sure knows how to throw a party! Free cupcakes and champagne for everyone! The staff was super friendly and very helpful. The seats were comfy and our view was great even from the mezzanine.

I saw Sigur Rós here and both the music and the venue were amazing.

The Paramount Theatre is always a wonderful venue to see a show. The traveling production of Miss Saigon was no exception. The cast and crew did a marvelous job putting this timeless love tragedy together. It was wonderful! The theatre staff are helpful and friendly, as well.

Had a fantastic time at the Peter Frampton concert!The only downside was the seats are uncomfortable. Old bumpy theater seats. But we were up and down (dancing and cheering etc) that it was ok. The upside is that every thing else was great! The place itself is quite beautiful. The staff was really helpful and friendly.

Really wish the seats were just a tiny bit wider, or just had individual chairs on the main floor. Those seats are made for tiny people without hips.But the show we went to was great. And Ill probably suffer through it again... I just want an option to not sit in the old seats.

This historic theater holds Broadway, concerts and many other events. A great place for an evening of entertainment.

Beautifully ornate old theater. Just be warned, if you sit in the mezzanine, the seats are a little lower to the ground leaving you less leg room. We loved seeing Phantom of the Opera here as well as many other wonderful musicals and plays.

Historic performance venue. Awesome acoustics, and a very classy setting. Concessions are run by Tom Douglas. No hot food, but some snacks are available. Multiple balcony tiers. Top class venue.

Great old theater. Loved the decor and the staff was friendly. The seats are TINY. I wear size 16 (which is average for USA women) and BARELY fit in the seats. I know they’re historical so I can’t complain too much but having more accessible seating would be ideal.

Good, long-standing theater in the heart of Seattle. Easy to access location with plenty of parking around. Be aware that the acoustics in the theater itself are not well-designed for more modern shows for anyone sitting on the balcony level. Audio is often blown-out into a static-like din as speakers are often cranked past 11.

Very nice older theater with awesome architecture. Seats are pretty cramped.

This theatre has a abundant source of plays and is a great theatre. The theatre has good seating but is not elevated nearly enough so if you are short like me it will be hard to see. In all the Paramount is a great theatre to go for an expensive fun family time.

Absolutely stunning theater with friendly staff. Would love to see a bathroom attendant to point out open stalls as there were several open when I got to the front of the line (which went up two flights of stairs and spanned three floors). The line moved fairly quickly because there are lots of stalls, but just going to to bathroom took up all of intermission. I literally ran back up the stairs but was late getting in to the performance.

Historic staple of Seattle. Wonderful venue.

Paramount is a top notch theater for shows and music. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Seating is cramped in the upper levels but good sized on the main floor. Complimentary coat check helps with the smaller seats up top. Bathrooms are crowded during intermission but for the most part flows well

This theater is beautiful and it never seems to have a bad seat in the house, some are definately better than others though! Great shows, fun Broadway musicals. Know the bathrooms are downstairs and can have long lines at times but when it is for a play or musical they seem to handle the lines well.

Its a beautiful building!! I love its style! It was a little confusing to me to get around be cause the lighted words on the signs were very dim. There were very helpful people though and I had an amazing time!

A wonderful place to go. No elevators though.

BEAUTIFUL VENUE that showcases Seattle class and style. A beautiful place to enjoy a show whether in the front of the mezzanine or on the ground floor. The acoustics are okay (not great). But the decor, seating and chandeliers are classy and stylish. A wonderful place to enjoy a show.

The Paramount is a beautiful and well kept theater. Seats are comfortable and all allow a good view of the stage. The only downside is the leg room in really lacking.

Saw Penn and Teller. Great show, but the theater needs to think about upgrading the seats soon. Saw many people with extra cushions that were very much needed.

This Icon is gorgeous! Went there to see Phantom of the Opera! The staff was helpful and very friendly! I will definately be back for more shows!

Love this theater! The antique decor is beautiful and the staff there is friendly. We have seen many excellent shows here. Even seats up here were good ( 2nd mezz row 21 L) The bathroom line can get long, but the staff helps to keep it moving . Excellent theatre experience.

Had the most amazing time at the Paramount watching Steve Martin and Martin Short. They were fantastic and if you ever get the time to see them... GO! Now enough about that this review is about the Paramount. We Uber’d down there and I suggest that if you go in the future. Traffic in Seattle is usually a nightmare around events so loose the stress, and just Uber.The theater is excellent and impossibly clean for how many petiole were there. They had it organized down to a science for entering and exiting the building. They are up to date with QR scanners for digital tickets, not all places are that up to date.The bathrooms were big enough for all the women so there was very little to no wait time, ladies rooms are always so busy and you almost expect to wait at big events.The bars were busy as expected, but they sure do make the drinks good and the wait wasn’t too bad. Little tip, just buy the to-go cup they offer. It really is the best value and you can take it in the concert hall, other wise you’re drink is smaller and not as full.All in all I loved every minute of it and they place showcased them very well.

Wow I had a great time at the beautiful Paramount theater. Donna Summer Musical was so lovely and dancing singing was off the chain...go see it!

Beautiful historic bldg. Great location and decor

We saw cats here and it was one of the best Seattle experiences weve had. The theater was very nice, I would like to say more about it but it was very cramped with it being a friday night, we were able to get parking near by at 7th and Pike and the walk the 2 blocks. I heard the bar yelling that they dont take American Express but Im not sure if the box office accepts it. They do have a no open drink policy in the theater but bottles with lids and the sippy cups for booze are allowed at you seat. You also cant go up on stage anymore at intermission and meet the cast those days are long and gone.

This is by far my favorite venue in Seattle, both floor and balcony are great places to view shows. Have loved every concert Ive seen here.

We saw Tom Jones and the show. At 77 years old he put on a show that lasted over 2 hours long. Sound quality was great, seats were a little tight but the thing that bothered me the most was the air conditioning. It was so warm inside it became uncomfortable. Overall a great venue!

Beautiful theater, clean bathrooms, but ridiculously overpriced drinks. $18 for a double whiskey is absurd.

It is a beautiful, historic theatre! I went and saw Wicked, which was incredible! Seriously so amazing! You can tell how much work everyone put into it (shout out to more than just the actors, but stage crew and ushers!) It was clean and the crowd was smoothly managed. I will definitely come again to other shows and Im even thinking about getting season tickets because I loved it so much!

Love the shows. Hate the new security screening, dont think it would stop anyone intent on harm. Just a false sense of security for some and a nuisance for all. They have a good system for moving ladies through the restroom quickly, but the lines are still abysmally long.

Great historic theater. Perfect for incredible music, stand up comedians and other events. Can be tough to get decent, reasonable parking so if your ticket comes with a pay in advance parking options, grab it. Super location for a night out as its in the middle of restaurants and hotels. If this helped or you like this review, please give it a thumbs up. Thanks

This is a beautiful theater with intriguing architecture. Anywhere you look in the theater is filled with history and the acoustics are decent. Unfortunately, while the theater can seat many people the lobby is small. You need to arrive early in order to get any souvenirs or snacks. Otherwise, you will barely be able to move until the staff open the door for seating.

Great venue. Sound was fantastic. Staff is always professional and helpful.

Beautiful venue, great sound. Viewing good in the handful of locations Ive sat in.

Not ADA compliant. So, good luck if youre in a wheelchair. The stairs to the restrooms on the main floor are super-steep, so good luck sending grandma there, if her hip isnt already broken.

Beautiful theater. Ive been here a few times and each time I feel amazed by this historical building.The acoustics are pretty good and its on a great location as well.

Well Paramount I love your charm and whimsey. Staff...seems like they took pleasure in locking me out even though I was at the door before it closed and I could reach out and touch my seat. Had to stand outside the theatre doors and listen to the first act. Awkwardly looking at the 2 that shut the doors on me while they sang along.

Ive scene some fantastic shows at the Paramount! Definitely a great place to go to the theatre in Seattle!

Beautiful theater. Very helpful staff. Even the cheap seats are great!

Love this iconic theatre. Been here a few times. The sound is excellent and the theatre itself is ornate. They dont make them like this any more. I believe it is also an historic building in Seattle. If you drink, do it before the show because a double rye and coke cost $24US.

Great theater, beautiful interiors. We watched the book of Mormon here and its a must watch show. Its has a parking lot located close by and can be accessed by public transportation as well.

I love the Paramount. Great shows in a great venue. I havent seen the Paramount ghost yet, but Ill be there again, so perhaps I will...

Attended Ali Wong show. Chair spacing is really tight. Im not even 6 foot and had to press knees into chair back. Narrow isles. Exit flow was good though. Able to leave without much difficulty. Show was well done. Clean and attendants where helpful.

Only wish is that the would set up cues on the main floor for drinks, restroom, merchandising. It turns into a zoo of lines at intermission. Staff is amazing and helpful every time Im there.

Architecture is amazing! Theatre counties to attract big shows and big names. Right down the street from light rail too!

Beautiful venue! Please fix your seats. So worn down you sink backwards into them and ruin your view of the stage
