Hilbert Circle Theatre is the beautiful home of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. While this isn't my first time visiting, I had the best experience on December 19th. The sight of the tall, brightly lit, decorated Christmas tree instantly warmed hearts. Each year, IPL Yuletide at Hilbert Circle Theatre brings joy to my holidays. All ages can enjoy the Christmas traditions and a new spin on classic holiday songs and stories. The performance is superb, showcasing some of Indy's best talent! Hilbert Circle Theatre has a wonderful ambiance, a new bar that serves beverages, alcohol, and treats from Gallery Pastry Shop. Even outside of the main performance there was lots to see- like artist Justin Stahl playing the gorgeous 1913 Wurlitzer Pipe Organ, containing 1,600 pipes, 7 tuned percussion instruments, and 20 orchestral effects! (All which can be heard inside the theater). Everyone looked so lovely! It was wonderful seeing the families of Indy come together to celebrate Christmas. read more

I've now been to the ISO three times and I'm already planning on going back again. Every time I've gone, the staff has been very helpful and courteous. The venue itself is beautiful and the acoustics are great - not the best in the world or anything but certainly very, very good. 4 stats for the acoustics and the extra star for the great staff. If you like music at all (especially classical), I would highly recommend that you check the calendar and find a show that you think you'll enjoy. It is definitely worth checking out. read more

Hilbert Circle Theatre - Some of the beautiful designs on the walls inside - Performing Arts Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I am not sure how I have only been here two times as an adult....I guess I somehow just missed looking at the various shows each year for the ISO. Well, I won't be making that mistake again. This is an excellent theater right off the circle. I first got pulled here by the Leslie Odom Jr. concert. Our seats were pretty close to the front but to the side. The seats were great! I am not sure there is a bad seat in there, at least on the main floor. The stage isn't too high if you're close, so nothing gets blocked. Leslie was fantastic and so were the acoustics. Some of the orchestra looked kinda bored at times though... The lobby is not huge but well laid out and easy to find your seats. We came back just yesterday for their Valentine's event for Michael Cavanaugh and his piano, no orchestra and the space still worked great. We were able to sit center, third row which are fantastic seats! The event was a ton of fun and came with complimentary rose and macaroons! Definitely will be taking a look at what they do next Valentine's day. Tickets are not always super cheap but I feel like you do get what you pay for in terms of well kept theater and talent. There is valet I believe if you want, but if not, there are a lot of parking options nearby and it is a pretty walk over during good weather. Despite the fact that I was not able to get tickets for John Williams, :(, I will still be looking forward to what else Hilbert brings through in the future. read more

Gorgeous. Just gorgeous. Hilbert Circle Theatre is exactly what an orchestral venue should be: ornate architecture, stunning acoustics and built for world-class entertainment. I remember visiting this place a few years before I moved to Indy, and I just remember how awestruck I was by the experience of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. If you ever get the chance, hit up a performance with Urbanski behind the conductor's podium. Intense and fantastic. read more

The Hilbert Circle Theatre is a beautiful location. As soon as we walked in there was a small foyer on an incline. Once we approached the second set of double doors we were greeted by a doorman who check out tickets and then escorted us in. As soon as you enter the waiting room there is a restroom to your right, the music hall directly in front, and to your left typically has refreshments. The seating was very comfortable and the acoustics made for a very pleasurable listening experience. Things to know: 1. It's located on the circle so parking is going to be a beast. Try to find street metered parking and just walk over. Otherwise I think parking in the designated garage is about $10 per hour. 2. If it's open seating be sure to get there early so you can get the best seat. When I went it was for the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra so any seat would do. I sat about the 6th row back. This was great because I had the opportunity to see the main acts up close. However, the balcony seats probably would be optimal as you would get an overview of everything. read more

Beautiful theatre! I come here often to hear the symphony and am a big fan of the Happy Hour series when they really make use of the whole building. I appreciate the ease of parking in the attached garage. I've definitely been to old theatres that I liked better--this one seems it could use some small updates, but I really enjoy the charm of this classic setting. read more

Bravo Bravo, This is truly a step back in time which has been magnificently restored and maintained. I purchased tickets through the deal during Devour Downtown and was blown away at the value! I saw the Strauss Alpine symphony which had a special conductor, Krzysztof Urbański, from Poland. The show was an adventure through scenes of nature such as sunrise, glaciers, ferocious storm and running through a thicket all from the comfort of your seat. I thought sporting athletes were showmen, but I was mistaken because the pianist, Dejan Lazić, was spectacular. His enthusiasm and skill were very apparent. The night we went his received a standing ovation which lasted nearly 5 minutes. His encore song was brilliant and I began to appreciate the skill which playing the piano on the world class stage truly meant. I am not the most cultured individual, but I assure you I will be back soon to get lost in the musical journey. Don't just take my word for it men. Purchase a ticket find a cute lady, get dressed up and enjoy a wonderful production from the Indianapolis Symphony. read more

I'm a gal who likes to have an occasion to blow out my hair and bust out a funky vintage dress on a weeknight: the Indiana Symphony Orchestra Happy Hour is just the ticket on a cold November night. Picture dapper gentlemen and ladies looking foxy, milling about in the open atrium or leaning against the railing of the balcony, perhaps draped over the furniture in one of the lounges. I'm talking tiny free drinks galore, in at least 5 varieties (although you'll have to arrive on time to score a fancy cocktail, apparently making an entrance is not rewarded with spirits). And you'll need an extra hand to handle the miniature tasty treats from various downtown restaurants. I don't mind that Harry and Izzy tend to disappoint by showing up with quinoa when their name is synonymous with Steak and Shrimp, because really, I come for the music. At the end of the night, my toes are tapping, my heart is swollen from that soaring string movement, and my cheeks are rosy thinking about those athletic musicians from Time for Three. I mean, my cheeks are rosy from biking home in the wind. Oh! Hi, Honey. . . nothing, just dictating a Yelp review. Yes, uh-huh, be right there. . . *Click* read more

My boyfriend surprised me with tickets to the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in concert, and it was AMAZING!! I have been a Harry Potter fan since I was in middle school. I remember waiting outside the movie theaters for hours in my Gryffindor robes waiting to see the newest edition to the HP series on the big screen. seeing one of THE BEST movies of the series LIVE IN CONCERT was EVERYTHING!!!!! The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra delivered a great experience that'll leave an everlasting memory. read more

Hilbert Circle Theater, home to the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, is one Indy's best theaters. Between its small and intimate setting and great acoustics, there isn't a bad seat in the house. Plus, thanks to recent reservations, the seats have recently been redone. The result is a very comfortable cushion for your derrière. There are three levels to the theater and the highlights of the theater include: -Ticketing/Gift Shoppe: 1 -Coat Check: 1 and 2 however, depending on the crowd, level 2 might be closed -Cash Bar- 1 and 2 -Bathrooms: 1 and 2 -Lounges to hangout during intermission/pre and post show: All -Art for purchase by local artist: 2 Parking for the theater is located off of Pennsylvania on the right and is $5 during ISO performances. There is also a garage on the left side of the street that usually matches the rates and is much faster to get out of after performances. read more

Not a bad seat in the house, seriously, it bears repeating, NOT A BAD SEAT IN THE HOUSE! I've sat in the front row, I've sat in the last row in the second mezzanine, I've sat in the box seats, I've sat in the corner chairs on the main floor in the back. I've sat in the chairs which encircle the stage which Maestro Urbanski has decreed must remain empty during his performances conducting the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra so as to not be a distraction. The theatre is beautiful. Designed in classical revival architecture style, it was restored in 1984 and is the home of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. The sound is wonderful and is only augmented by a few small speakers during symphonic performances. It is also the home of a wonderfully restored Wurlitzer theatre organ which is normally hidden off stage, but can be brought out if featured in a performance or piece. read more

Great concert and acoustics, but I think I will avoid terrace seats next time. I've always wanted to sit up there, but it just wasn't quite what I imagined. It was a unique viewpoint to be looking down on the symphony (almost felt like I was an honorary member sans instrument), but unfortunately I missed out on the skit by Time for Three since I could only see their backside. The seats aren't numbered so there was a little confusion since a couple women were already seated in our seats. A nice gentleman who helped us find our seats notified them they're seated in the wrong spots. One woman commented, 'That's okay with me; I won't have to deal with the beam blocking the view." Got a little nervous that there was going to be a bit of a turf war at the symphony! Yikes. She had a point though. Although the chairs were freestanding, there wasn't enough room to maneuver them at the optimal angle so it was a bit difficult to see the front of the stage where Time for Three stood. I caught my companion leaning over a few times to catch a glimpse because he took the seat next to the beam. However, we had a great view of the full orchestra. So close that I could almost read their sheet music! read more

Hilbert Circle Theatre - Happy hour at the symphony with Plastic Musik - Performing Arts Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I cannot say enough about the beauty of this theater and its history. I volunteer here and I have attended several shows now. Yuletide every holiday season is amazing. The Symphony sounds beautiful from any seat. The movies with the Symphony are so well done. The theater also hosts many other events. Go visit soon. read more

Went to the Hilbert Circle Theater last night for their Symphony Happy Hour. It was fantastic! It was part of a Yelp Elite event, and we got a behind the scenes tour. We learned about the history of the building, how it had originally been constructed in 1916 to show silent pictures. Then over the years the building fell into disrepair, and was restored in the 1980s. It's utterly beautiful on the inside. They did an amazing job with it. The complimentary food and beverages were fantastic. A couple of different kinds of meatballs, some pasta, and lots of sweets. I didn't get to stay for the symphony's performance unfortunately (parental duties) but you can believe I will attend the next Happy Hour with several friends in tow. read more

Recently hit up the Hilbert theatre for the ISO (Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra) Happy Hour Concert series. Tonight experience was a mash up of Drizzy Drake and classical (not even going to try and spell the composers name). It was fantastic! From 5-6:30 happy hour takes place in the main lobby and 2nd and 3rd floors. Grab beverage samples from Stella Atrois, wineries, and more. Local restaurant Food samples vary as well. Such a wonderful event to attend after a grueling work day with friends. It's the perfect way to Grab a drink and relax to some tunes. The theatre is gorgeous and seating is comfortable. Ticket staff is kind and quick. Definitely a gem of Indy. Get out to hear a show. read more

This is the cornerstone of Indy's arts & culture! The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra plays in this beautiful venue, and they have wonderful happy hour and learning events as well. The location is amazing right on the circle. If you visit on a night with good weather, take a stylish stroll in your theater attire around the circle! It's magical! There are no bad seats in this house, and the attention to detail on both the exterior and interior provide a comfortable and luxurious theater experience! Every year they have the Yuletide celebration to rejoice in the holiday season! The happy hours include bites from local sponsors before a short show. They have been doing soundtracks to movies and other pops shows which are super fun if you're not as into Classical. I just saw Time for Three and Stereo hangout with a few featured guests from the Symphony and it was wonderful! If you can catch a show at the Hilbert Theater with any of them, or just check out our top quality Symphony, I highly recommend it. read more

Why isn't this place on the top ten places to see in Indy?! The historic downtown theatre is a gorgeous example of neo-classical architecture, and the interior is a lovely balance of past and present. I attended the ISO Happy Hour; a brilliant new program that relieves the theatre of any stuffy, pretentious air for us casual folk. No fancy dress required. Just come by after work and have a relaxing evening at the theatre, Millennial style! Upon arriving, a coat check is available in the back of the main lobby. Drinks and samples are provided by local businesses, but you need to show up early to get to any food. Sodas are free, in a cooler on the first floor. The bars provide beer, wine and cocktails and accepts card and cash. If you don't get in early enough, chances are you're going to sit up in the balconies. Don't think that's a bad thing! The balconies have just as good a view and sound as the main floor. Maybe even better. My only complaint was the obnoxious couple that we sat next to; giggling, talking and making a mockery of the show. It really put a damper on my evening with my husband, but we moved over to another isle to escape their obnoxious behavior. I can't understand how adults can act like they're at a frat party while they're at the symphony. I guess that's what happens when you add alcohol to the mix. Regardless, the theatre itself is a shrine and altar dedicated to the art of the stage. After its renovation in the 80s, the view from the seats is simply breathtaking. The space takes some of the spotlight away from the musicians, but certainly not all. The acoustics are amazing, and the music takes you somewhere else. Even at Happy Hour, they play a little of the classics as well as some modern music transformed into poetic instrumentals. On my visit, some of the selections included Stairway to Heaven", "Stand By Me", "Symphony No. 9 from The New World" and "I'm Not The Only One". The main trio of musicians, Time for Three, gave a masterful and passionate performance. Two violinists and one cellist rocked the house with their youthful and vibrant style of playing. It was mesmerizing, and I can't wait for the next ISO Happy Hour! read more

My home away from home since my teenage years, the Hilbert Circle Theater is the prettiest building in the city. Originally constructed as a "grand movie palace" in 1916, the theater was reopened in 1984 and is now home to the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, one of only 17 year-round orchestras in the country. Its elegant interior is like a cross between a music box and a wedding cake: the mirrored orchestra boxes, rosy pink decor and oval balconies are an ideal backdrop for the haunting strains of Schubert or Beethoven. In recent years, the Symphony has made an aggressive effort to expand its programming, with much success. There really is something for everyone these days. For the musicians, Romantics and classical aficionados among us, the orchestra presents a full concert season in the theater, centering mostly around major works from the standard literature with some pops and special events mixed in. If you're less familiar with the orchestra scene, there's now "Happy Hour at the Symphony" on intermittent Thursdays, which offers cocktails and live jazz in the Hilbert Theater before an evening concert. This tends to draw a young, yuppie-ish, smartly dressed crowd, so if you work downtown, I highly recommend stopping by, if only to gape at the theater. If you have small children, love the Star Wars theme song or just prefer a picnic with your Puccini, Symphony on the Prairie is an Indy tradition. These concerts, held throughout the summer at Conner Prairie, tend to be more pops-oriented, but you'll get a few old favorites thrown in now and again. Bring a blanket and a bottle of wine and let the kids play on the playground as you soak up a concerto under the stars. Ahhh, bliss. The ISO and its home, the Hilbert Theater, are truly Circle City gems. As I mentioned earlier, full-time orchestras are a rare animal in this country, so enjoy yours as much as you can! read more

Attending the Yuletide Celebration is an annual family tradition, we love getting dressed up and coming out. This year I really appreciated the staff working to get our family seated in special seating due to my being 2 weeks out from knee replacements. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating. The show was great, although we have preferred Sandi Patty in previous years. Already looking forward to coming December 2017. read more

Gorgeous building in the heart of the city. I have seen several shows here and recommend anyone to check it out for a few different shows. There is not a bad seat in the house. If regular symphonies are not your thing, try out Happy Hour at the symphony, unlimited drinks, food, and a twist on traditional symphony music. Will definitely be going again, hopefully a few times a year. read more

Went to the $5 lunch series symphony concert today and it was nothing short of AMAZING!!! And to my surprise it was FREE! I've never visited the theatre and I generally appreciated the talent. During the Lunch series on Thursdays you can bring in your lunch! Can't beat it! read more

Hilbert Circle Theatre - Performing Arts Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I'm not a huge symphony guy, but this place has made me a fan. To start things off, this establishment is located on the prestigious Monument Circle in downtown Indy. There are actually two entrances, one in the front and one in the back of the venue. When you go to the symphony, you want to make an appearance, so I strongly recommend entering through the main door in the front. There isn't an official dress code, but it is the symphony. Everyone is dressed to impress, which adds to the overall appeal. Once inside, it feels like Prom night. Everyone is pleasant and engaging and the staff are some of the most professional people you'll come into contact with. This is a perfect venue for a romantic night out. Being somewhat new to this circuit, I wasn't sure of some of the unspoken rules. Of course, I'm pretty excited about the concert itself, so I broke out the camera and tried to slip in a couple pictures (which I don't recommend during a performance). Instead of getting upset with me, my guest quietly told me that it wasn't appropriate at the time. When I looked around among the crowd, everyone seemed to understand that I wasn't a regular fixture at these events. This relieved me from the embarrassing situation while maintaining the utmost dignity. You simply can't ask for a more understanding crowd than that. As far as the show itself, it was amazing. The performers who entertain at these events are stars in their respective environments. The seating is unbelievable. We sat on the balcony level and my only thought was, "why can't every concert at other venues have seating like this". I don't believe that there is a bad seat at this location. I will definitely attend more events at this venue in the near future. read more

I love old style theaters. Newer theaters always seem to overthink the acoustics and you never quite get the old resonance of the 19th century designs and architecture. Everything is beautiful and inviting. The ushers are all very helpful. I do have a few complaints though. The seats are uncomfortable and the upholstery sticks to your clothes in awkward ways, I found myself shifting throughout the concert. The sight lines leave a lot to be desired, but that is less immportant in an orchestral setting. Don't let my complaints dissuade you though, the ISO is an amazing group and it's always a pleasure to see them. read more

Holy holly berries! Yuletide Spectacular 2012 truly lives up to its name! You know that chill up your spine when something is just so amazing and that uncontrollable desire to tap your foot when the beat is just oh so good? I had both the entire time! I don't care what your age is, this show is absolutely magical. The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra is stellar! (And can I just take a moment to say it's awesome we have our very own symphony orchestra here in Indy.) Angela Brown, co-host, is the definition of a diva and brought the perfect amounts of attitude and humor to the show. Ben Crawford, co-host, has a phenomenal voice... look out Josh Groban! I have never seen anyone ROCK the harmonica until this show... it was epic! I can't say I've ever seen a Christmas tree "shake its tail feathers" or a line of tap-dancing Santas either. And there are no words to describe the wonder of the cirque de la symphonie performance. I take that back. I can think of two words: confetti and jester. They put so much detail into the props and costumes too. I just loved it all! In case you had your doubts, there's not a bad seat in the house! So hurry up and buy your tickets before they're sold out. I would totally go back again this year too, so feel free to get an extra ticket for me while you're at it. read more

An incredible, historic 1,660 seat theatre in the heart of downtown Indianapolis. The acoustics are incredible, the gorgeous facade faces the circle, there are tons of restroom stalls (big pet peeve at large venues), and the variety of shoes at the ISO are fantastic. The 2nd mezzanine has loads of old historic photos of the circle, which are intriguing to see how much the city has changed. Don't miss a chance to get dressed up and come here. Awesome place for a night out! read more

Amazing acoustics highlight this under-appreciated gem. I highly recommend the Thursday night "happy hours" for countless samples of (often local) food and beverages. It gets a bit claustrophobic in the lobby and sample areas if it's a popular show, but worth the hassle for the performance alone. If at all possible, buy your happy hour ticket before the day of the show in person to save on an extra $5 day-of bump and a $6 online handling fee. Be grateful for this cultural treasure and give it the support it deserves! read more

I am not known to jam out to classical, but the ISO is so much fun. Going to a show here is a must do in the city! I am a huge fan of Happy Hour at the Symphony. In order to enjoy it, you must be a patient person when it comes to long lines. To me, it just gives me more time to chat it up with the people I came with. You can endulge in mini samplings from local caterers, restaurants and even white castle. The cocktails are always premium, while the beer is mediocre. Oh! and another tip: Get there around 4:30pm to buy your ticket. The happy hour is from 5-6:30pm and you dont want to spend that time waiting to buy your ticket! You will most likely want to be enjoying the festiviites of free food and beverages inside! If you arent too hip on a long classical orchestrated shows, then you will most likely enjoy the Happy Hours. The show is pretty short and typically has a trendy or current twist to it. I am looking forward to the summer so I can go to Symphony at Prarie, where the symphony puts on a show at Conner Prarie. read more

We visited for the first time to watch the performance of Beethoven's 6th and an Oboe solo from the principal. What a magnificent time we had. The venue is right on the circle - we parked a couple of blocks away and walked. This is a beautifully restored old building - first class in every detail. Getting around inside was simple enough and there was ample locations to get a beverage and a snack before the performance. Our seats were on the lower right near the back but this was a fine view. I will likely sit upstairs when we go to another performance since I suspect the sounds are restricted under the balcony (as evidenced by the speakers). My musical tastes typically skew far away from classical - I had not been to a classical performance in a very long time and I honestly didn't know what I was missing. This theater is a crown jewel for the ISO - highly recommended you get here at least once. read more

This is a beautiful theatre with amazing sound. I really feel there is no bad seat too. We came to see Leslie Odom Je perform w the orchestra and wow talk about taking my breath away. The sound quality, the orchestra was perfection. The seating is comfortable, no heads in your way, enough leg room. Just great. I would see shows here over and over again. read more

Visit: February 6th, 2010 Performance: Tetzlaff plays Brahms I'm not any aficionado of classical music, or symphonies, I just know when Daniel Plainview drank your milkshake! at the end of There Will Be Blood, the title card came up to Brahms's 3rd movement of his Violin Concerto; and that got me to buy a pair of tickets to this concert. I've only been to a couple of symphony concerts before...and the venues were so large, I'd prefer to sit up close; lo, I was blown away to find front row, center seats available. However, this isn't Tom Petty at Deer Creek...I quickly learned that the front row at this theatre is way too close to the stage and creates a pinched nerve in any age-d neck. Yet, we were at the feet of Tetzlaff (whose name reeks of someone that should have been mocked on Seinfeld), so quite honestly it was worth sitting so close. And, if you're coming from out of town...do know that this theatre is small -- art house movie theatre small (it originally was a movie palace which lends to a heartwarming setting). If you've never been to the symphony...this would be a wonderful introduction: there's your classic, obvious "members" are there...the ushers are attentive, it's crowded (which I find welcoming) and the coat check lady will chat you up (for a tip? i don't care...she was a sweet heart). And, pride. A general sense of pride in the work of the Theatre staff and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Hidden gem: There's a spacious, welcoming bar & lounge that's open through the performance. If you have the nerve to get up mid-performance (it might be too small to do so) or just don't go back in at the intermission, enjoy the people watching if anything. Something the Hilbert Theatre wants to say but won't: "Hey youth of Indianapolis! Come along! Don't be afraid...our older crowd actually feeds off your Stella Artois drinking energy." read more

I can easily give this place five stars. WIth its beautiful architecture, fantastic shows and supportive crowd, I get excited about any and all opportunities to visit. I was recently there for a Russian performance - and had the chance to sit quite close to the stage. What an experience! I grew up in a small town where having a theatre such as this just didn't happen, so being able to drive to one in my city (easily) is fantastic. Plus - it's right downtown on the circle. You have the opportunity of grabbing a bite to eat before heading to the show. And! They host "Happy Hours at the Symphony," which are most definitely worth checking out. Lovely theatre. I'm a huge music fan -- and am so, so pleased that Indy has its own symphony orchestra. Such a treat. read more

Ticket pricing is cheaper than the Melody Inn ! read more

The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra does an amazing job of entertaining crowds of all ages.

I love going here for ISO performances! It's also very nice to be able to enjoy a drink while enjoying a show.

One of the best theatres in Indy. And one of the oldest. Acoustics good, views good. Decor- lovely. Nice bathrooms. Lovely location. Nearby parking tends to be spend unless you find a meter. The view right outside the door is the best. read more

I attended the HCT for the TEDx Indy Conference. This place is fantastic! Perfect size venue without a bad seat in the house.

I always love coming here. We've attended a variety of Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra concerts here (as well as an episode of Jimmy Fallon during the Super Bowl) and it always strikes me just how pretty this building is. It's a fantastic venue. We most recently attended a Pops concert by the ISO as the first stop on the IndyHub Passport to the Arts. It. Was. Breathtaking. I strongly recommend that you check out an event here if you've never been. There are lots of affordable ticket options and fun events offered. read more

The building, the location, the acoustics, the performances; the Hilbert Circle Theatre is a wonderful concert venue, and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra puts on incredible performances.

I am so upset with myself that it took me so long to go to this beautiful theatre right in the heart of our city! The Devour Downtown ISO deal came in so handy. It was awesome to hear music from 2001: A Space Odyssey in a full house. The music, the lighting, the seats, all of it - top notch. I heard a few people around me mention that they could tell the theatre had been redone or had some additions - and my only comment to that is kudos! It was a lovely evening capped off by some delicious alcoholic cafe drinks at the Encore Lounge. I can't wait to return for my sympohny shows. read more
