Opened as the 800-seat Florida Theatre on October 20, 1924 with Lon Chaney in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”. The theatre currently seats 312. The architect for the Florida Theatre was F.H. Trimble. It is a two story flat roofed building with parapet and walls finished in white stucco.
This was the second movie theatre to grace the streets of Vero Beach. It is also one of the few remaining buildings left in the original downtown. By 1953 the Florida Theatre was operated by the Talgar Theatre Company chain.
It was added to the National Historic Register in 1992. It now functions as a live performance center.
