My husband and I went to the Temple Theater for the Eddie Concert Bands Christmas concert and it was amazing. I had never been to the Temple Theater before and was blown away by how beautiful and well maintained everything looked. It was a really special night with friends and we will definitely be going back! ️

Always love coming to Temple Theater. In the past, I have visited here for Saginaw Bay Symphony Orchestra concerts. On Oct. 29th, I visited again with my husband to watch A Haunting On Dice Road. The atmosphere of this theater makes you feel like you are in a time capsule - everything is pristine to look like it was in 1927. They recently updated the marquee to a digital sign. The show was great. Parking can be pickle if there is an event going on the same night as the Dow event center.

Went to the Drum Tao show, which was great. Other than overpriced food/drinks, which are expected, the food menu is fairly limited - I think three items that are all designed to make you thirsty (one is a pretzel). Id also advise people to a ignore the paid parking ($5 & $10), find a free spot and walk to the venue.

The Christmas experience was mind blowing. The band, choir and Santa were a wonderful way to start off the winter season. The family had a great time and well be back again.

This is such a beautiful building. Theres so much wonderful architecture inside and the staff were wonderful. Ive never met more polite security in any venue. The organ is also a pleasure to hear. Those that upkeep this place deserve our respect.

Absolutely beautiful. We had early access so we got to pick our seats way ahead of the crowd... We went upstairs and sat middle area second row. Probably not a bad seat in the whole theatre though. There is a ledge for drinks and popcorn where we sat, that was awesome. Audio was loud, picture was great and we met some really nice people.

The Temple Theater is a beautiful place to enjoy any venue. I have been attending functions there since it was a movie theater back in the 60s. The refurbished interior is more fabulous then ever! Its truly a gift to the Saginaw County community.

This venue is very old school classy. The whole place has a sophisticated air about it. Parking seemed abundant in nearby lots. Only disappointment was, we saw no ghosts that are rumored to haunt this location.

I love this place:) Beautiful and historic. A great place to enjoy a show. Good prices for tickets and for the concession. Staff is so friendly. Building is very clean and so are the bathrooms. You get a nice view of the stage no matter where you sit. Were going back in April to see The Ultimate Queen Celebration and I cant wait:)

Beautiful venue! Great selection of shows throughout the year, including the Saginaw Bay symphony orchestra. Prices are reasonable for tickets and snacks/drinks from concession stand. Clean bathrooms. Plenty of restaurants near by to go out to eat beforehand. Parking structure and lots near by make for an easy walk to venue.

This is a great part of my home town: the Temple theater!! Ive been here many times, but the last time was to see a showing of A League of Their Own. What a great movie! The speaker before hand was a nice touch as well. Pointed out an aspect of the movie I never noticed before. The atmosphere is beyond compare. Find a reason to check this place out!

Beautiful, it is as majestic as it was when I was a child. They have done a good job at keeping the theater repaired, despite the economy. If you have the chance, please give this theater your patronage. Even if it is for nothing else but to experience the history in this building.

It was a good event and they took very good care of each and everyone who came through the door. My son dropped his popcorn and they replaced it at no charge. Everyone left with cookies and milk after the show.

A little girl dreams of her wedding day for a lifetime it seems! My dream was an old Hollywood style wedding with sparkle and old world glam, and that is exactly what I got! I couldnt have been more pleased with our venue choice. From the perfectly decorated atmosphere to the extremely helpful staff, my dream wedding was a reality at the Temple Theatre!!

Classy place. Came to a wedding here. It seems like people are having fancy weddings these days. Personally I like hanging out with family and friends at an old bingo hall, but if you have money this place is nice. I really like when people restore old buildings. Beautiful!!!

Great Pokemon spawns with 3 stops in the parking lot and one gym. Always a must stop for community days. A little tricky getting in and out of if the traffic is bad but if you plan your route to head south on 13 than you shouldnt have a problem.

I loved watching Dice road haunting part 2 here... Reason for only 4 stars is because of how close the seats are together. Anytime you need to get up you have to make the whole row stand up and move out into the isle to let you out because them just standing up doesnt give you enough room to get by. But that old building is so beautiful

Really enjoyed the movie: The Sultan and the Saint. Well attended and not expensive. The Temple theater is a really nice venue. We received a lot of background information about the film before and during the film. That really helped us understand what was going on during that time period. Great experience.

You really need to visit this old theater in Saginaw. Renovations returned this gem to its glory in the early 2000s. When you walk in, you can feel the atmosphere of the 1920s but the stage technologies are really up to date. Make it a point to see a show here.

Today we saw Jurassic Park as part of the Sunday movie series. It was quite an experience. First of all, the theater itself is beautiful. It has been restored to its original 1920s configuration. Before the movie started, we were entertained by an organist playing music written by the composer John Williams (who did the theme to Jurassic Park).All in all, a very nice theater. Plus the concession stand was really cheap. Only $5 for a pretzel or popcorn and a pop.

So great to see that its been restored. I remember seeing Dancing in the Rain there in the early 50s and then dancing all the way back to 321 Washington to my grandparents great house, now a parking lot. What a loss!
