The Paramount Theatre is Denver's most intimate concert venue with just under 2,000 seats
Built by Temple Buell for Publix Theatres in 1930, the Paramount Theatre instantly surpassed the standards set by the dozens of theatres that lined the streets of Denver. It is the only local theatre of its generation to maintain its original dignity and glamour. The glamorous atmosphere was, and is, heightened by the original architectural and design elements. Buell built several important buildings in the region and is credited for founding the “Western style” of architecture. Despite his many successes, Buell claimed the Paramount as the finest example of his work.
Originally designed for the silent movies of the time, the Paramount houses a one-of-a-kind Wurlitzer twin-console organ, designed to produce varied sound effects in accompaniment with the picture show. The organ remains one of the largest ever installed in the Rocky Mountain region and is joined by its sister in New York City’s Radio City Music Hall as one of only two remaining in the United States. The Paramount Theatre was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and was declared a historic landmark by the City of Denver in 1988. Today, the historic Paramount Theatre remains a vibrant, multi-event facility where Denver’s residents and visitors enjoy a wide variety of entertainment options each year. From rock concerts to dance performances, comedy to lectures, and movies to the Wurlitzer organ performances, the historic Paramount Theatre remains a top choice in Denver’s entertainment scene.
