Bankhead Theatre -
Livermore Regional Performing Arts Center

The Bankhead is the inaugural venue of the Livermore Valley Performing Arts Center and a cornerstone of downtown redevelopment efforts. A 500-seat, fully-equipped multi-purpose venue appropriate for dance, theater, music and conferences, the Bankhead is the home for Livermore area performing arts groups such as Del Valle Fine Arts, Livermore Valley Opera, California Independent Film Festival, Livermore-Amador Symphony, Valley Dance Theater, Cantabella Children’s Chorus, Pleasanton Playhouse and the Valley Concert Chorale. The theater will also be home to presentations by nationally-recognized artists and will support regional events as well as uses by community groups, schools and colleges.
