Located on 3700 Broadway, this grand theater holds the rich tradition of providing quality entertainment to its patrons. It has been more than eighty years now since the Uptown theater opened its doors to performing arts lovers.

Uptown Theatre is the most opulent entertainment venue in Kansas. It was constructed and opened in the 1920's. Everyone from Kansas City architect Robert Gornall to Austrian-born designer John Eberson were involved in making Uptown Theatre a one of its kind venue in Kansas City as well as in the State of Missouri. On January 6, 1928, this grand Italian Renaissance style theater opened to give a feel of atmospheric theatre. A perfect place to see first-run films, Uptown Theatre showcased many Hollywood blockbusters in years that followed.

The beautiful structure and design gave Uptown Theater a permanent place in the National Register of Historic Places on June 27, 1979. During those times, it became the center of live vaudeville and stage productions. Soon it became the part of booming American music scene as it became the favorite concert venue of the citizens of Kansas City and beyond. However, careless approach of administration led the Uptown Theater to close its doors in 1989. This act was not taken very well by local music aficionados as they highly missed their good-old live venue.

The new phase in the glorious history of Uptown Theatre occurred when in 1994 it was purchased by UGA, LLC and then underwent a $15 million renovation. When the theatre re-opened after renovation, it surprised everyone by maintaining the original splendor and design that it had before. Not only design, the glory was also regained as Uptown Theatre maintained its standard of presenting top quality shows and rocking concerts.

The Uptown Theatre always ranks up by providing the best of sight and sound. Its sound system at is as par modern standards and lighting is perfectly fine.
