The Addison Performing Arts Centre

The Addison Performing Arts Centre is a distinctive performing arts venue in the heart of Addison Circle, offering organisers a choice of three characterful spaces for shows, cultural programmes, talks, community gatherings and selected private or corporate events. Formerly known as the Addison Conference and Theatre Centre, the complex combines professional theatre facilities with a memorable architectural setting close to Dallas and the Dallas North Tollway.

The venue includes the Terry Martin Main Stage, the Studio Theatre and the historic Stone Cottage. Each space offers a different atmosphere and scale, making the centre suitable for productions, presentations, panel discussions, award ceremonies, receptions, workshops and other occasions that benefit from a strong sense of place. The flexible theatre environment can support both formal seated audiences and more intimate experiences, while the range of spaces allows organisers to match the room to the format and audience.

The centre is also home to resident and visiting performing arts organisations, with regular theatre, comedy, music, dance and cultural programming throughout the year. For event professionals, this creates an established venue with experienced theatre management, dedicated operational contacts and a proven ability to accommodate productions and public-facing programmes.

Its Addison location places guests near hotels, restaurants, entertainment and transport links, making it practical for local and regional attendance. Whether you are planning a theatrical performance, a cultural showcase, a company presentation or a distinctive gathering in a venue with personality, The Addison offers an adaptable arts setting supported by the Town of Addison.
