About The Palace of Fine Arts
When the Palace of Fine Arts was made in 1915, there was no intention for it to stand for generations. It was meant for temporary use — a World Fair, during the Panama-Pacific International Exhibition — and was demolished. Fortunately for us, the palace has escaped and was restored in the ’60s & ’70s. Now it is one of the best spots to see when exploring the city. This iconic landmark exhibits carefully-detailed architecture with Roman characters and pink hues columns.
The Palace of Fine Arts Theater offers 120,000 sq feet indoor space available for Rental for corporate events, private galas, weddings, and other events.
