Have attended jazz concerts and more recently high school graduations. Excellent facility for these uses. With its renovation, the facility is in great shape. Our school has used it for its graduations the past two years, graduating about 160 each time. A wonderful venue for this type of event - easy to see the graduates, good acoustics and seats.

I've been to the Memorial for lots of events, the last one was a high school graduation. It's a plush old venue, all the seats are good, acoustics are great. Try to see a show there for sure!

The Memorial Auditorium is another piece of Sacramento History - a beautiful building that has been totally restored and renovated - it is used for sporting events and some theatrical productions. A definite must see for history buffs.

-with 4,000 seats, i imagine this was the Radio City of the WREst but now it is closed to the public except for special events. we called the Convention Center which manages it and found out a seminar was being held there on a weekday- we spend 10 minutes there checking out what probably was the Radio City of California....

It needs some serious inside updates, the seats are super squeezed the people sitting on the row behind will hit your head with their knees, not cool!! I understand that the venue need to make $ of concessions but make you throw away your starbucks before you come in to buy their coffee inside its not nice to do to... More

The Auditorium was host to the N.American Marriage Encounter Convention and what an atmosphere in it beautiful and spacious interior. It hosted many events in the past as shown in the photographs around. It was sad to read the names of all those brave men who gave up their lives in the different wars but great to have them remembered... More

This was a great little production in the small auditorium off of the lobby at the Memorial Auditorium

...the city decided to restore the Memorial Auditorium instead of tearing down yet another beautiful and historic building. This is the first time I have been back there since the concert days of the sixties and seventies and it looks wonderful.

In April 2012, I went to see Celtic Women here in concert. What a gorgeous venue! Old, ornate, well maintained. Historic. A great place to see a graduation, music group, or whatever. Plus lots of fine eats in the neighborhood!
