Keep Gainesville Hipp

For over 50 years The Hippodrome Theatre has been the heart of the cultural fabric of downtown Gainesville. Your continued support ensures that we can keep the arts alive in Gainesville even during the most challenging time.

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to our community members and especially the City of Gainesville and  Alachua County for your generous donations which have played a crucial role in keeping our doors open and have brought us almost halfway to our fundraising goal.

Every dollar you donate, every event you attend, has continued to make a difference. Thank you for joining us in protecting the arts and supporting Gainesville’s cultural future.

Alternate Access Theatre

The Hippodrome’s historic elevator will not be available until further notice. While we work to fix our elevator, we will be offering adapted versions of our shows in our Alternate Access Theatre, located on the first floor on our Cinema/ Second Stage. All adapted productions remain to the professional standard and quality of all Hippodrome productions. 

If this impacts your ability to see the show, please contact the box office to arrange the best accommodations. 

Contact us at boxoffice@thehipp.org or 352-375-4477.

 

Education Programs

Rentals

The Hippodrome is on the National Registry of Historic Places and offers affordable rates for events of all sizes.

As the only independent cinema in Gainesville, our cinema screens a diverse array of commercial and independent movies, special screenings and film festivals.
