About this venue

"Built in 1948, opened in 1950, the historic Ridglea Theater is one of the last true Art Deco theaters left in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex." After being awarded Fort Worth's highest historical designation in 2011, The Ridglea underwent a massive restoration project. Its refurbished Art Deco paintings and decor now create a stunning backdrop for any social event. This full-service event center features a main party room with a dance floor, two bars, a live music venue, and a theater with state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment. The Ridglea Theater is the crown jewel of Fort Worth's West Side culture.

Ridglea Theater is a unique and historic wedding venue in Fort Worth, Texas.

Couldn't Be Better!

Felicity, Alex, and the Ridglea staff could not have been easier to work with. Felicity always answered our questions quickly and was very accommodating in meeting with us. Wendy from the Ridglea was awesome. She helped us set up and made sure our reception went smoothly. The bartenders and other staff were so friendly and welcoming to us and our guests! After comparing this venue with others, it was an easy decision to go with the Ridglea. The pricing and service are just unbeatable, and the theater itself is amazing.

Ballerinas take over 2023

I organized a fundraising event for a non-profit at this venue, and from my initial interaction with Felicity, I knew we were in good hands. She consistently provided prompt responses to our countless inquiries, ensuring that every detail was addressed. I am grateful for the dedication she demonstrated in assuring us that this venue was the perfect choice.

From the impressive marquee showcasing our event's name a day prior to the occasion, to the exceptional bar staff, our experience was nothing short of remarkable. The venue's team allowed us significant flexibility in creating an unforgettable event, making it a truly special and memorable occasion.

This place is such a gem. Beautiful vintage theater with a great staff. We got married on a Saturday and the venue open its doors to us at 10am for our vendors to setup. The package even came with their bartenders, a sound tech and light tech! Wow. Plus they did cleanup and venue management. The bartenders were fast, efficient and kept our guest very happy. If you are looking for something different, post-modern and friendly I strongly suggest the Ridglea Theater!

Beautiful spot!

I love this venue so much. It has a beautiful vintage look to it with the movie posters that I love along with the concession stand area. The stage is perfect for a ceremony, you definitely feel like the center of attention on it. Wonderful venue
