This Venue Review: The Majestic Theatre The Majestic Theatre is a gem that truly lives up to its name. Nestled in a prime downtown location, this historic venue radiates old-world charm with its ornate architecture, intricate details, and grand chandeliers. The ambiance is elegant and intimate, with excellent acoustics that make every seat feel like the best in the house. The staff is friendly and efficient, ensuring smooth entry and a well-managed experience. The intimate atmosphere, combined with its classic aesthetics, makes the Majestic Theatre the perfect setting for live music performances, particularly those that highlight finesse and subtlety. Concert Review: Kenny G Live Kenny G’s performance at the Majestic Theatre was nothing short of magical. From the moment he walked onto the stage with his signature soprano saxophone, he captivated the audience with his unparalleled mastery of smooth jazz. The setlist of two hours included fan favorites . Kenny G’s effortless skill was on full display, with his long, sustained notes and smooth phrasing that created a serene and almost ethereal atmosphere. He also engaged the crowd with light humor and personal stories between songs, making the experience feel warm and personal. The backing band added rich texture to the performance, enhancing the music without overshadowing the star of the show. The venue’s acoustics amplified every note perfectly, ensuring that the subtleties of Kenny G’s sound were fully appreciated. In summary, the combination of the Majestic Theatre’s stunning, intimate setting and Kenny G’s soothing, masterful performance made for an unforgettable night of music and elegance. place has the best acoustics in town.

If you are planning a visit to a Venue at the Majestic, 1st thing... parking. In past, I have parked around the Majestic off of its left. But this time, coming in from Seguin, went off 410, 35 and then looping into 37 exit off off Downtown Commerce, you will pass RiverCenter Mall, go straight, turn Right on Navarro and up the street is the Houston Street Garage on the Left, literally a block or 2 up the street. It is $10 no cash, hold on to your ticket for after. I parked on 3rd floor, used Elevator (as of last night there was only one in use). When I came out, I was in a lobby, to the right, I opened the door and was literally outside with the Majestic to the Left of me, like a couple of venues, Subway, Barber etc. I attended Selena Vive event, Which by the way if you are looking at this today the venue is still open for 2 o'clock and tickets start at $20. I went in to Ticket Booth and bought tickets with no line, you will notice ATG on tickets. The seating was awesome. For this venue, the whole theatre was not open but it was perfect. The lighting and the Venue was awesome. They hosted a local resident artist to perform the Selena songs. The Philharmonic Symphony in accompaniment. Be aware of concession prices. Popcorn 8.00 caramel salted candy 10 (or vice versa) and DRINKS BE PREPARED..Over $20.00 depending on your choice. All together any time this venue hosts an event, plays, concerts, and shows you can NEVER go wrong. Hanging around outside while waiting for your guests, no worries security is out there directing traffic etc. Yes some homeless characters but they didn't bother anyone.

I purchased tickets for my mom & sister to Wicked as a Christmas gift. We attended 12/27/23 for the evening showing. I will say it was a horrible experience, my mom is handicapped, our view was obstructed by the guests in front of us and we were treated poorly by the staff. I will not go into detail here but I sent a very detailed email to the Majestic the next day citing each incident that occurred. I did not get a response after almost a week so I called the office & was provided with a different email. I forwarded the email & received a quick reply from the Customer Experience Manager addressing each incident that occurred. After some additional correspondence, he wanted to make things right for us & asked for an opportunity to redeem themselves. I was informed that the staff would receive some additional training on the incidents that took place to hopefully prevent them from happening again. We were able to watch Wicked again and this time had a very different experience. We had a wonderful time, were able to watch the show unobstructed and the staff treated us with respect this time. The customer experience manager also introduced himself to us upon our arrival and asked how we enjoyed it this time. The moral of the story is do your research and reach out to the person who can assist. Don’t expect a refund but explain your situation and give them an opportunity to make things right. TJ, thank you for making this right for us. We will definitely continue to enjoy the arts at the Majestic Theater.

Built in 1929, this theater is unique inits interipr decorativ styling. I have been to the Broadway and off-Broadway theaters in New York City, the theaters in the Theater district of Chicago like the Ford theater, the State and Orpheum theaters in Minneapolis, the Fitzgerald theater in St. Paul, the theater district in San Francisco, as well as quite a few theaters around the USA. I have never encountered a Spanish theme like this. The theater is meticulously and lovingly maintained from what I saw. If you appreciate old theaters, you have to see this one. Be sure to visit the water fountain display on the 2nd floor in a grotto. It no longer functions because of low water pressure (from the Riverwalk renovations, we were told). The elevator.is also an experience - original to the theater and manually operated. We saw the Manneheim Steamroller Christmss show. The acoustics of tge theater were excellent for that. The music was even too loud really. I have never seen a play or musical at the theater without amplification so I cannot speak to the hall acoustics for that. I never encountered any dead spaces (acoustically speaking) and the hall is small enough that every seat is a good seat for visibility.
