Miller Symphony Hall Allentown

Miller Symphony Hall Allentown is a historic performing arts venue distinguished by its elegant Beaux-Arts architecture and its strong connection with Allentown's musical life. The former theatre space is now home to the Allentown Symphony Orchestra, while the main performance hall has a maximum capacity of 1,132 guests, with seating arranged across three levels. Its combination of preserved historic architecture, a distinctive façade and a full concert stage gives the venue the character of a classic American theatre designed for orchestral concerts and a wide range of live performances.

Inside, the hall retains an intimate theatrical atmosphere despite its substantial capacity. Multiple seating levels provide clear views toward the stage, while the acoustic character of the auditorium is particularly well suited to musical performances. Comfortable seating, traditional auditorium details and additional spaces such as the Lyric Room and Rodale Community Room complement the visitor experience and allow smaller cultural and social events to take place alongside performances in the main hall.

The venue is located at 23 N 6th St, Allentown, United States, with the main entrance directly accessible from Sixth Street. Visitors arriving by car can use nearby parking options including the Transportation Deck at Sixth and Linden Streets and the Community Deck near Sixth and Walnut Streets, while designated accessible parking spaces are available along Sixth Street close to the hall.
