About this venue

The Hollywood Theater is an iconic Art Deco landmark in Northeast Minneapolis. When it opened in 1936, the theater was described as “the incomparable showcase of the Northwest’’. After years of decline, the theater closed in 1987 and was purchased by the city of Minneapolis. Twenty-five years of inaction and neglect followed until 2014 when the National Park Service recognized the building’s historical significance and listed it on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2015 the theater was sold to Northeast-resident and entrepreneur Andrew Volna, who saved the building and restored its original Art Deco splendor. Today it is ready to host your event. Hollywood Theater can seat up to 250 guests, but can welcome 500-600 guests with a mix of seating and standing room. In addition to the theater space, there is a private courtyard, complete with grass & string lights. Perfect for an outdoor ceremony, your cocktail hour, or just a breath of fresh air. We look forward to connecting!

    Working with the Hollywood Theater was absolutely the best decision we made for our wedding! Not only is it a unique, beautiful space that wowwed the guests, they were also incredibly communicative and accommodated many of our needs. Would absolutely recommend checking them out for an event.
