Annenberg Theater

The Annenberg Theater is an intimate 430-seat performing arts venue located on the lower level of the Palm Springs Art Museum, presenting comedy, jazz, classical music, dance, theater, lectures, and community events each season. As part of the Palm Springs Art Museum, the theater benefits from the museum’s accessibility infrastructure, including accessible parking, accessible routes throughout the facility, and wheelchair-accessible seating. The museum campus has accessible restrooms and drop-off areas available for visitors with mobility needs.

The theater’s lower-level location within the museum is served by elevators, providing step-free access for wheelchair users and those with mobility impairments. The Palm Springs Art Museum also welcomes service animals throughout its facilities, including the theater. Visitors requiring specific accommodations are encouraged to contact the box office in advance, as the venue can assist with reserved accessible seating arrangements.

Visitors report that the intimate scale of the 430-seat theater generally makes navigation straightforward, and the venue’s position within the museum means restrooms and seating areas are conveniently accessible. Some visitors note that parking in the area can be limited on event nights and recommend arriving early to secure accessible parking spots. The lower-level location is reached via elevator from the museum’s main entrance, which visitors have found to be reliable and well-maintained.
