Blue Gate Performing Arts Center is a modern concert and performance venue designed for major music, theatre and entertainment productions in Shipshewana. Its auditorium accommodates approximately 1,500 visitors, while the sloped seating layout provides clear views of the stage from different parts of the hall. A spacious stage and contemporary technical facilities make the venue suitable for concerts, musicals, comedy shows and other live performances.
The interior combines the atmosphere of a large production venue with the visibility and comfort of a more intimate theatre. The seating arrangement keeps the audience relatively close to the stage, while the sound and lighting systems support a wide range of performance formats. Visitors also have access to a lobby, concession points and other facilities intended to make the time before the show and during intermissions more comfortable.
The venue is located at 760 S Van Buren St, Shipshewana, United States.
