About McCallum Theatre - Palm Desert
The McCallum Theatre -Palm Desert, CA
In May 1973, a group of Coachella Valley business, education and cultural leaders organized as Friends of the Cultural Center, Inc., and committed themselves to the creation of a state-of-the-art performing arts center. Their vision was to enhance and enrich the lives of desert residents by making the performing arts available to as many people as possible.
Vision became a reality in January-1988 the McCallum Theatre was founded with the mission to provide Coachella Valley residents with a world-class performing arts center to serve our unique desert community. The Theatre is acclaimed as one of the finest performing arts centers in the nation and regularly tops national and international sales charts, and is a Pollstar World Top 50 Theatre in recognition of its substantial ticket sales, a significant achievement given our market and 1,127-seat capacity.
