A nostalgic venue lush with the reds and golds of regal Victorian decor. Comfortable seating and good views. Clean, well kept restrooms and an impressive foyer complete with bars, merchandise and plenty of antique comfortable seating. Two opposite entrances and a helpful, very classy staff. I held my wedding reception at the Warner and it was a lovely venue. Highly recommended for the experience!

Went there to see Gordon Lightfoot show. I has been a while since Ive been in the theater. What a great job they did restoring this historical landmark of Erie. The addition of another lobby really helps out the flow of the traffic in and out of the auditorium. The sound in the auditorium is great and there is no bad seats in the house.

The theatre is a delight for the eyes, and is an original Warner Brothers site.The restored lobby area and updates to facilities are a plus.Utilized for touring musicians, comedians and Broadway shows, as well as the Erie Philharmonic. A true gem!

I love this venue. i have been in the past and this was my first time in 10years. Unfortunately I had a difficult time sitting in the seats. I am a larger woman with big hips and had to sit at an angle, but in doing that my rear end kept touching the guy in the seat next to me.

A time warp. Spend a hour there you will see hundreds of things you never knew existed. The people know the what,where and whys of everything they sell.SPEND YOUR MONEY LOCALLY.Buy Quality and service, they way our country was founded.

It is a classic old theater from Warner bros. Historic but is in need of some restoration in some areas. Most areas are in great shape for the age of the theater. Home to the Erie Philharmonic. It is a great part of the arts in Erie, PA. Definitely worth seeing and a wonderful part of the community.

Warner theater is absolutely amazing place to visit. We went to see The nutcracker and we enjoyed our show thoroughly. Seating and there is pretty much visible from anywhere you said. Bathrooms are accessible and establishment is very clean. They could use some updates in the bathroom though as sinks are hard to operate being that they are so old and their bathroom stalls are very small in the original part of the building.

Beautiful historic building with the traditional architecture and decor of the 20s-40s. Reminded me very much of the Hershey Theatre in downtown Hershey PA. I was surprised the acoustics werent better, hence the 4 stars

Warner theater is a neat expirience. Its one of the original theaters from Warner brothers and has a lot of charm and character. If you ever are in Erie and have the opportunity to attend here, plan on doing so if you are into ornate old theaters. Currently undergoing updates but not really any inconvenience to the public.

One of the coolest places to catch a show ever. Ive seen hundreds of shows during my time in Erie and the theater is always gorgeous with excellent acoustics. Love this place. The renovations from a few years ago took the facility from great to amazing, too! Warner will always have my heart. :)

The Warner Theater is the GRANDEST Public structure CLEAN and RESPECTFUL for Family Entertainment - the only one left of the Golden Age; Eries Site tops even Broadway in New Your City. Uphold the class of the golden age, or you will destroy the very last Spectacular Theater on Earth! The warner theater is Historical and needs protected more than any other structure. The Warner Theater is the BEST SHOWCASE in the country it has left. The Grandness is worthy of Sitting Presidents and Presidential Debates. Live productions like that of Broadway and Las Vegas is its equal. Should remain a high profile place of class; even one of such class people can Propose Marriage their with a fine touch of Romance with the highest standards of the Golden Years Protected for future generations. (Possibly conect the finest professional dining experience during events of the highest level of classical events and live theater - without disturbing the warner at all; connect a fine dining establishment with secluded, extremely high security access to the Warner Theater. [Underneath ONLY the balcony section alone; reservations required - for the fine dining experience with the same historical significance and equal to the experience of yesteryear and the remaining parts of the Warner Theater AS IS CURRENTLY.]• That is the center piece from which to expand the revitalization of downtown Erie outwards. HIGH SECURITY WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR THE PATRONS.~ Rev. Matthew Perrin - of Erie Pennsylvania.

We recently attended the ZZ Top concert at the Warner and while the Warner theater is a wonderful place to attend any function and the concert itself was really good, ZZ Top at the meet and greet left ALOT to be desired!! Our son paid $400 a piece for tickets for us to meet and greet ZZ Top and while we got front row center seats and again the concert itself was great...the meet and greet...well lets just say there was NO meet or greet!!! The 12 of us were escorted back stage and were told to stand behind them when it was our turn and lean in for the photo and then go through the door next to them. I believe all of us thought it was another room where they would talk to us and maybe sign autographs. Boy were we wrong!!! They never spoke to any of us and then we were shown the exit door!!! $400 to photo bomb ZZ Top!!! I can say that I will never purchase anything associated with ZZ Top!!

The Warner is a beatiful theater but the last couple times Ive been there for a play Ive had trouble making out the words. This was a musical & I and my 2 friends had trouble making out the words in the songs. Everything else was wonderful! Its such a beautiful theater and its always a treat to be there.

Clean, nice lighting effects, we had a very good seat, (they were comfy).The whole place was vintage but a good place to hear and see. I had no problem with seeing or hearing, even from the back.It was personable in its detailing a refreshing change from industrial chic.It was small enough to be friendly. Not to mention the act, Rumours of Fleetwood Mac, was enjoyable! We will be back.

We were attending the Warner Theater for the Erie Phil Harmonics greatest fantasy hits concert and it was absolutely amazing. The show was completely sold out. Despite this, everything seem to run quite smoothly behind the scenes. My wife and I love the detailed architecture of the theater.
