About Metropolis Performing Arts Centre

Metropolis Performing Arts Centre opened in 2000 at 111 W. Campbell Street in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Operated by the nonprofit Metropolis Performing Arts Centre and associated with the Village of Arlington Heights downtown redevelopment, it serves as a small-scale theater and music hall in a walkable downtown district. The main theater seats approximately 329 guests, giving the venue a compact, audience-focused feel.

The venue hosts live theater, plays, musicals, tribute and themed concerts, comedy, seasonal and holiday productions, and youth and educational performances through its affiliated School of Performing Arts. That mix has made Metropolis a cornerstone of the downtown Arlington Heights arts and entertainment district and a leading performing arts venue in Chicago's northwest suburbs.

Known for accessible, reasonably priced productions, Metropolis Performing Arts Centre combines professional and community programming with the close connection between performers and audience that comes from a modest house size.

Location & Transportation

Metropolis Performing Arts Centre is located at 111 W. Campbell Street, Arlington Heights, IL 60005 — in downtown Arlington Heights, surrounded by restaurants, shops, public parking, and walkable streets.

Transit: The theater is a short walk from the Arlington Heights Metra station on the Union Pacific Northwest Line. That makes train travel a practical option for guests coming from Chicago's Ogilvie Transportation Center or communities along the UP-NW corridor.

Driving and Parking: Metropolis Performing Arts Centre sits in the downtown core, where nearby public parking decks, municipal garages, and street parking serve the surrounding district. Arriving early helps make downtown parking easier, especially before popular productions and evening performances.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are practical at the downtown location because of the central street grid around Campbell Street. After a show, allowing a few extra minutes can make pickup smoother as guests leave nearby restaurants and the theater at the same time.

Nearby Accommodation: Hotels are available in and around Arlington Heights, with additional lodging in nearby suburbs such as Rolling Meadows and Schaumburg. Staying downtown offers the easiest access to nearby dining and the theater district.

Venue Navigation

Metropolis Performing Arts Centre is an intimate downtown theater, so navigating the venue is straightforward. Planning your arrival around Campbell Street, the main entrance, and downtown parking makes the start of the show easier.

Entrances and Access: The main entrance faces Campbell Street in downtown Arlington Heights. The box office and audience services are located at the main entrance, making it the primary point for ticket help and guest assistance before performances.

How Much Do Tickets to Metropolis Performing Arts Centre Cost?

Metropolis Performing Arts Centre ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or production, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from youth and educational performances to musicals, comedy, seasonal shows, and tribute concerts.

For concerts and tribute shows, tickets are approximately $40, with final pricing shaped by the specific performer, event date, and available seat location.

For theater productions and musicals, single-ticket pricing is typically modest and reasonably priced, reflecting the venue's reputation for accessible productions in an intimate theater setting.

Metropolis Performing Arts Centre Seating Guide

Metropolis Performing Arts Centre offers an intimate single-house theater layout of roughly 329 seats oriented toward the stage. Because the room is modest in size, most seating locations keep audiences close to the performance.

Best Seats at Metropolis Performing Arts Centre

• Best value: Seats farther back in the house can still provide a clear view of the stage thanks to the venue's small scale, making them a strong option for guests balancing sightlines and price.
• Closest to the action: Front-of-house rows nearest the stage offer the most direct proximity to performers, ideal for theater, musicals, comedy, and tribute concerts.
• Best overall experience: In a small house of this size, most seats offer close proximity and clear sightlines to the stage, so the best overall choice often comes down to preferred viewing distance and available inventory.

Getting Ready for Your Metropolis Performing Arts Centre Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical steps make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a downtown theater where parking, dining, and arrival timing all come together around showtime.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Arriving early eases downtown parking, and the venue's proximity to the Metra station makes train arrival a practical option from Chicago.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. If you're arriving by Metra, allow time to walk from the Arlington Heights station to the theater and settle in before curtain.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
