Bob Hope Theatre

The Bob Hope Theatre is a historic performing arts venue listed on the National Register of Historical Places, located in the heart of downtown Stockton, California. The theatre's lobby features a 1,200-square-foot marble mosaic floor crafted from Italian marble, and the building houses a restored 1928 Robert Morton theater organ — originally installed in Seattle's Fox Theatre and later donated by the Friends of the Fox organization. The main auditorium seats 2,030 guests in fully refurbished red velvet seats, equipped with state-of-the-art sound, lighting, and rigging systems. The venue hosts a broad range of programming, from classical performances and dance productions to comedy, live music, and classic film screenings. The Bob Hope Theatre is available for private parties and corporate events, offering expanded restroom facilities and concessions alongside its technical production capabilities.
