About

This fabulous structure bears the name of the world-famous Warner Bros. who commissioned it to be built in 1929. The air-conditioned theatre provides more than 2,250 upholstered, theatre-styled seats that can be used for lectures, presentations and entertainment purposes. Of them, 1,528 are orchestra seats and 722 seats are located on the balcony.

Commonly rented for weddings and receptions, the Warner’s ornate and beautiful Grand Lobby can be used for small receptions of up to 250 people in a sit-down fashion or as many as 500 for a stand-up buffet.

The proscenium-type stage measures 65 ft. x 28 ft., off the side of which are street- level, load-in facilities. Electrical capabilities include 110/220 VAC, three phase 600 AMPS and 200A per LEG. Single-phase 110/220 also available. There is also an in-house sound/public address system. The Warner's technical capabilities provide multiple lighting and sound options for the many events that take place there each year.

Designed by the famous Rapp & Rapp Company of Chicago, the theatre opened its doors in 1931. Construction costs at that time were an unbelievable $1.5 million. Furnished and decorated in the art deco motif, the elegant theatre is complemented by gold and silver leaf, gold-backed French mirrors and crushed velour. The timeless and historic theatre is currently involved in a restoration and expansion.

I do not have the words to articulate how incredible this venue is. Working with both Brighid and Barry to get everything organized and planned, I did absolutely nothing on the day of. Your names go on the Marque outside and the inside is stunning. Seriously so many compliments and I was just blown away with its absolutely stunning interior. The Christmas decorations were still set up and added a beautiful ambiance. The set up and tear down and chairs is all included in the rental fee as well as the bridal suite and a place for the groom as well. I highly recommend this venue to anyone in the Erie PA area. The Warner Theatre made our wedding day so memorable and incredible!

Barry and his team at the Warner were wonderful to work with. We had to switch venues about 8 months before our wedding date (due to a fire at our original location) and while I was nervous at first, I’m very glad we had both our ceremony and reception at the Warner. They were extremely accommodating to our requests, and made sure our day was flawless! The location is beautiful and requires minimal decoration. It is definitely an underutilized venue in our area!
