Located at Town Center in Virginia Beach, the Sandler Center for the Performing Arts opened in November 2007 following six years of planning by the Virginia Beach City Council, which set out to replace the aging 1,000-seat Pavilion Theatre with a larger cultural facility. The center serves as a home for regional and community performing arts organizations and hosts concerts, jazz performances, and theatrical productions throughout the year. Beyond its 1,308-seat main Performance Hall, the center offers several spaces for private events, meetings, and banquets. The Miller Studio Theatre is a 2,200-square-foot rehearsal hall with a sprung floor and ballet bars that converts for cocktail receptions, seated dinners, or theatre-style gatherings. The Bill and Anne Wood Founders Room pairs wood interiors with a private terrace overlooking Town Center, while the center's three marble lobbies, connected by dual staircases and lit by chandeliers, can be rented individually or together for receptions. Two classrooms accommodate smaller meetings, and an 18,000-square-foot outdoor plaza has hosted concerts, weddings, and fundraisers. The center provides a list of preferred caterers for events and offers more than 3,000 free parking spaces with ADA-accessible parking in each lot.
