I was recently in Albuquerque on business, and stumbled upon the Kimo. It is open every day for touring, and the theatre is stunning.
The restoration is near flawless and is a incredible example of the Southwest Pueblo Indian style. The Kimo features murals by the German
artist Karl Von Hassler (who had his studio in the upstairs offices for a time) titled The Seven Cities of Cibola; they’re a spectacular highlight. A visit to the Kimo is must for classic theatre buffs. You will not be disappointed.

870 is incorrect. The seating charts on our webpage show the ‘as intended’ installation during the last renovation. The actual seating capacity is 650.
