Lila Cockrell Theatre is a prominent performance venue within the Henry B. González Convention Center complex, originally designed for ballet, symphonic performances and drama before a major renovation expanded its versatility for concerts, lectures and multimedia events. The auditorium offers 2,319 permanent seats across the orchestra level and two balconies, giving the theatre the capacity for major productions while preserving the atmosphere of a traditional performing arts venue.
Inside, the theatre is designed around clear stage views and a professional performance environment, supported by an integrated audio system and technical infrastructure suitable for a wide range of productions. The spacious entrance lobby includes a box office, while concession stands are available on audience levels. Comfortable permanent seating and dedicated accessible areas for guests with reduced mobility and their companions further support a convenient visitor experience.
The theatre is located at 900 E Market St, San Antonio, United States, within the convention center complex and adjacent to the Grand Hyatt San Antonio. Drivers can use the neighboring Grand Hyatt garage or the Convention Center Garage across the street, both providing convenient access close to the main entrance serving the complex and theatre.
