The Rococo

a historic and memorable venue

Right in the heart of downtown Lincoln, the Rococo is an elegant and unique venue for concerts, parties, weddings, movies, fashion shows and other memorable events. It’s a vintage theatre converted to an event venue, that can always use the stage when necessary. Occupying most of the first floor of the historic Stuart Building, The Rococo Theatre was restored to its 1929 splendor after an unfortunate 1970s remodeling. It is now Lincoln’s high-end concert venue and provides a beautiful and intimate setting for the region’s best entertainment, as well as premier national touring acts live on stage. It’s also a perfect venue to host special events. 

From corporate events, special functions or holiday parties, to fundraisers and even beautiful weddings, the Rococo Theatre’s unique style adds elegance to any event. The Rococo’s state-of-the-art audio/visual equipment and full-size movie screen are also available to enhance video presentations. In addition, the Rococo Theatre has a gracious and knowledgeable staff with no detail overlooked. Rococo events are once in-a-lifetime celebrations with family, co-workers, and friends.

Private Events

The Rococo Theatre boasts a breathtaking architectural interior in the Italian Romanesque style. The stone and terra cotta walls mimic an old Italian palazzo. There are Vegas style booths and tables plus two larger-than-life chandeliers that hang from the Rococo’s soaring ceilings. 

The Rococo Theatre also creates a magical backdrop for weddings. Imagine the perfectly lit bride and groom center stage as family and friends watch with comfort. Ceremonies performed at the Rococo Theatre are enchanting, magical, with the convenience of having the reception in the same beautiful venue.
