Please go to a play, movie, or concert! They do a great job and its all volunteers. It is a fun night out!
Wonderful place. Definitely feels like a part of Frankfort. Always happy to visit for different events/shows.
Frankforts Grand Theater is one of those delightful gems that you discover just off the beaten track.A medium-sized venue dating back to the days of Vaudeville, the Grand has been revived after decades of neglect. When you visit, youll see evidence of a loving restoration still in progress (but nearly complete!). Comfortable seating, great sightlines throughout the house, and a moderately-sized proscenium stage create a lively but intimate atmosphere in which its a thorough pleasure to enjoy live performances.We had the unique pleasure of meeting some members of the projects board of directors who come out to work in the theater during shows. Im terrible at names and sadly failed to record the name of the gentlemen that we spoke to, but they were deservedly enthusiastic about their theater.One of them gave us a tour of the upstairs balcony level (which wasnt open during the show we were seeing),which includes a lovely gallery space and more comfortable seating, well-raked for a great view from every seat. He also gave us a thorough introduction to the Grands history.Concessions are very reasonably priced, with proceeds and tips (eager volunteers staff the stand) going to support the Grands ongoing revitalization. We enjoyed a good-sized prosecco and a medium Diet Coke for $7 (plus $2 for the tip jar that goes to support the project). Patrons may bring their refreshments into the theater (which even offers cup-holders ... perhaps not incredibly elegant, but very useful when you need both hands to applaud!).One last thing: the Grand is located in the heart of Frankforts small but diverse downtown, which is overflowing with local businesses-- artists and artisans galleries, restaurants, cafés, and more. Leave yourself some time to enjoy the local color (and flavors!).We will definitely be returning to visit the Grand and Frankforts vibrant little arts hub, and I recommend both. Whether youre coming from afar or on the briefest staycation, the Grand is well worth the visit.
Great 428 seat theater that has great live shows with national acts and movies.
Wonderful venue for entertainment in a historic theater. Love seeing live performances here.
Had an excellent time last night watching the Allman-Betts Band, great show and excellent time! Great pick guys, no really great pick! What a great show! Thanks!
The movie was great. I had a really good time
Easy in and out.You are not far from the stage wherever you set. Chairs are comfortable with plenty of legroom. Not fancy, but pleasant. Walked there after dining at a restaurant just down the street.
The gentleman working the concession stand was rude to the other employee as well as guests. The seats are smaller but we were still comfortable.
Went and saying The Allman Betts band this is a great venue the Acoustics are wonderful
Great theatre. Needs more live music shows.
Theater was a little warm but otherwise good.
Not fancy but a great little place to catch some good music. The area around the theater has restaurants, bars, etc. as well. Parking was easy on the street and free.
Love the heart of this historic theatre. Its a great place to see a live show or movie.
We have been to many shows and concerts at this venue and have enjoyed being able to have an excellent evening out locally.
The Whos Bad - MJ Tribute Band was fantastic! One of my top performances at the Grand...and Ive been watching shows here for 10 years now. Loved it and love the Grand Theatre! Frankfort is so fortunate to have it!
Nice theater and the prices are cheaper than that of the regular theaters. There is always some kind of show happening there.
Seats are very tight. Concessions could use some help with planning and organization. Ive seen some good shows there though. I just feel sorry for big folks. I have two male friends who cant go here because they cant fit in the seats. :(
Shows are always great but the chairs are horribly uncomfortable.
It tries to bring some culture to this little town and does a good job. A staff of helpful volunteers. No drinks in the theater depending on who is in charge...that needs to go and then they will get five stars. Prices for drinks and popcorn is very affordable comparatively.
I have yet to watch a movie here, but the live musical performances have been wonderful. Great atmosphere and acoustics. They serve beer as well. Staff were courteous.
Always a wonderful show here!
Beautiful place for a movie
Nice little venue for music, movies, plays and more! Historical building. Youll likely walk about a block from where you park unless you are lucky enough to get one of the few closest to the entrance. Wheelchair accessible.
Had a blast.
Had a great time at the Diamond Rio concert. Not a bad seat in the house.
Every one should go there
Great venue! Super nice staff. If you get seats too close to the stage the speakers seem to shoot over your head and the sound doesnt seem balanced.
Great venue for concerts!
Love the ambiance of this historic theater that provides cultural, musical, theatrical, comical, & many other forms of entertainment to the capital city of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
Nice place to see a show
Beautiful place
An amazing piece of Downtown Frankfort and its history. I have been to countless ballet recitals and a fantastic concert by local musician Ben Sollee. If you havent been to the Grand Theater, youre missing out!
