    I have booked two events at State Theatre! And attended other events there. Easy to book, beautiful venue, everyone is very helpful and friendly. They have the bonus of a very nice patio outside the venue. Small town atmosphere just minutes from Joplin, Missouri or Pittsburg, Kansas.

    The State Theatre Event Center in Columbus is an absolute gem of a venue. Their communication is excellent - the team is friendly, appreciative, and a joy to work with. The quality of their work and the value they provide is stunning. They are incredibly accommodating and have so much to offer, from the beautiful event spaces to the top-notch service. We loved having our wedding event there last October, and have also hosted baby showers, wedding showers, and birthday parties at the center. We look forward to doing many more events with the State Theatre Event Center in the future.
