The Alberta Rose Theatre is Portland’s premier setting to experience acoustic music, art house films, and live performances. Located in the heart of the eclectic Alberta Arts District, the Alberta Rose originally opened as a motion picture house in 1927 and radiates the serene feeling of a Spanish-Colonial courtyard. The Alberta Rose is a mid-size, seated listening room with 300 fixed seats, excellent sightlines, and outstanding acoustics providing live entertainment of all kinds including music, circus, comedy, and more.
