About Jackson Hall At Mondavi Center

Jackson Hall is the primary concert and performance hall inside the Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts at UC Davis. The Mondavi Center opened in October 2002 and is owned and operated by the University of California, Davis. Located at One Shields Drive in Davis, California, the hall seats approximately 1,800 guests and serves as the larger of the center’s two performance spaces, alongside the smaller Vanderhoef Studio Theatre.

The venue is designed for a wide range of presented performances, including classical and orchestral concerts, chamber music, dance, jazz, world music, family programming, spoken-word and lecture events, opera showcases, and touring performing-arts productions such as Cirque Mechanics. Its presenting season typically runs from fall through spring, bringing leading orchestras, chamber ensembles, dance companies, jazz artists, world-music performers, and renowned speakers to the UC Davis campus.

Jackson Hall is especially known for its acoustic quality, proscenium stage, and multiple seating tiers that support both unamplified orchestral performances and amplified productions.

Location & Transportation

Jackson Hall At Mondavi Center is located at One Shields Drive, Davis, CA 95616 — on the UC Davis campus at the corner of Mrak Hall Drive and Old Davis Road.

Driving and Parking: On-campus parking is available adjacent to the Mondavi Center, with dedicated event parking structures and lots near the venue. Arriving ahead of the performance start time is advisable because lots fill before curtain, especially for popular performances and full-house programs.

Transit: The venue is served by Unitrans and Yolobus routes around the UC Davis campus. Davis is also reachable via Amtrak Capitol Corridor service to the Davis station, with onward local transit or rideshare to campus.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are practical at the campus-edge location. After performances, expect brief queuing as audiences leave the hall and surrounding campus lots at the same time.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available in downtown Davis and along the I-80 corridor. Additional hotel options can be found in nearby Sacramento and West Sacramento for visitors looking for a broader selection.

Venue Navigation

Jackson Hall sits within the Mondavi Center, so understanding the building layout before arrival helps make the pre-show experience smoother. Guests enter through the main lobby, then move from that shared public space into Jackson Hall’s orchestra and upper seating tiers.

Entrances and Access: Guests enter through the Mondavi Center’s main lobby, which serves both Jackson Hall and the Vanderhoef Studio Theatre. Ticket verification takes place at the door, with standard bag inspection where applicable.

Seating Levels: Jackson Hall is arranged with a main orchestra level and upper tiers or balcony sections facing the proscenium stage. The seating rises toward the stage, creating a clear theater layout for concerts, lectures, dance, and touring productions.

Accessibility: Accessible seating and services are available. The Mondavi Center provides ADA seating, accessible parking, and assistive-listening services typical of a modern university performing-arts facility.

Getting to Your Section: House staff and ushers direct patrons from the main lobby to the correct seating tiers. Because some upper-level seating involves steps, allowing extra time to reach your section is helpful before the performance begins.

How Much Do Tickets to Jackson Hall At Mondavi Center Cost?

Jackson Hall At Mondavi Center ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or ensemble, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from chamber recitals to headline orchestral, dance, and touring productions.

For classical, chamber, and recital performances, tickets can start around $20 and often range up to about $60 depending on the program and seat location. Upper-tier and rear seating typically provide the most accessible price points for these events.

For headline orchestral performances, dance presentations, and touring productions, tickets are often around $40 to $100 or more. Artist profile, ensemble reputation, production scale, and demand for marquee touring attractions can all move prices higher, especially in prime center-orchestra locations.

Buying earlier generally secures better seat selection, particularly for high-demand performances and series programming. As inventory narrows closer to the performance date, the best remaining seats are more likely to command stronger prices.
