The Pioneer Center for the Performing Arts is home to the area’s most prominent performing arts organizations, including: the Reno Philharmonic, A.V.A. Ballet Theatre, and Nevada Opera. The Center also hosts traveling Broadway Shows and other visiting performing artists.
"The Pioneer Theater--Auditorium opened its doors in January 1968, and it has played an important role in the expansion of Reno's cultural milieu at the middle of the 20th century. Today, the Pioneer Center is a focal point of Reno's Arts and Culture District. The district includes a number of historic properties that have been adapted to house cultural events and activities. As an anchor for the east end of the district and as the only building constructed as a performance arts space that still functions in that capacity, the Pioneer is an important cultural and historic resource.
The Pioneer Center for the Performing Arts, is located at 100 S. Virginia St. in Reno. The plaza and lobby are open daily."
