Rialto Square Theatre Reviews

Beautiful space. Seats are pretty standard for a theatre but comfortable. Went on a weekday for an event, plenty of parking and you can even take the Metra, only a few blocks away.

Great theater. Have been there 4 or 5 times, always a great experience.

Neverland was a great show. It was brought to life with the magic of the theater

Great place for an intimate show. Acoustics are awesome

Beautiful old theater. A good place to see a concert.

Always a good time at the Rialto. I love the nostalgia and that the venue is small enough that everyone basically has a good seat.

Downtown joliet has turned into a very unsafe area. Instead of building a new courthouse maybe they of helped the people of joliet.

Had excellent seats to the Criss Angel Mindfreak Raw show, & had 1 of the best nights.

Absolutely beautiful venue for my sister-in-law's wedding and reception. The theater was majestic and it was amazing when the groom and his groomsmen rose on a platform from underneath the stage.

The main hall where they had the reception was very upscale and when the dancing started the hall's lighting matched the party vibe. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Great show and a beautiful historical theatre. I love watching shows at this venue. I always enjoy the intimacy of this place.

Three Dog Nite concert was amazing loved the group.

I love going to the Rialto! It's a beautiful theater. My family has only had wonderful experiences here.

A beautiful part of history, lovingly maintained and preserved.

Beautiful Historic Landmark hosting live entertainment with current technology. Seats have plenty of leg room.

Really beautiful place. Love going to shows here. My daughter danced here for years. Enjoyed every show. Lots of memories.

AWESOME SO ENJOYED THE PLAY . " IT' A WONDERFUL LIFE" I WILL BE BACK DOR MORE <3 OXO

Classic theater with beautiful architecture and comfortable seats. Great acoustics!

Excellent as always. This has to be the most beautiful venue in all of the Chicagoland area. Add to that easy parking, great staff and reasonable drink prices.

Great venue ! Only drawback is the bathroom situation

Was there for a dance competition. Enjoyed the theater. Size was large enough. Plenty of space for dancers to change and practice. Much larger than the space the competition was at the previous year. The theater itself was beautiful. Thanks for hosting!

Saw a wonderful band there. Great acoustics and nice atmosphere.

Dont know special word onviance is it?Historical and grand

We went to the Rialto Square Theatre for a Wedding and it was absolutely gorgeous

Great venue, historic feeling, great bar pricing for a concert/show venue. Will definitely return.

It's a place within the community to see shows,concerts and other certain events

Traditional family outing. We love the jewel of our city. Watching a movie this time.

The venue was beautiful, but the digital ticket line was ridiculous. they need an update. we missed the first part of our show because of it

It's a good place to relax and watch something entertaining.

The building is so beautiful. We attended a concert which was very intimate. The workers were very nice. Especially when it was closing time and we were hanging out. Excellent venue!

Wow a blast from the past. A Grand theatre with a fanciful baroque Guilded touch. A historical venue and must see.

Very beautiful! We came in to look at the location for a friend to get married in. I highly recommend for a wedding venue. Mrs. Lindmark is SOOOO nice and informative.

One of the most beautiful theaters I have ever seen the main lobby is gorgeous stage area everything is perfectly redone beautiful location

Rialto is a historic theatre for the locals in Joliet. It's like the Apollo Theatre in New York.

Nice place but after the show they run you around like a hamster in a habitrail for 30 minutes you can't go out the way you came in I hope they never have a fire

What a amazing place!!! It's like stepping back in a time machine and beyond. GREAT.

Honestly.. this venue is EVERYTHING for your wedding. The venue is so extraordinary. You get goosebumps when you walk in. Almost like you are walking directly into the ballroom scene of beauty and the beast. I promise you... you feel like a princess that day. It truly becomes your castle. And they make sure you feel at home.
It has history. It has your whimsical.. it has your fairytale.. it has your romance... it has your surprises.... and best of all it has a Nancy!
Nancy is the Rialto s wedding coordinator. And she knows the venue, she knows weddings, she knows people. She would answer the most bizarre questions. I m not kidding.. I sent her an email randomly and then also called her because I was afraid of the stairs to get on the stage. And then she reminded me I was not crazy. Lol. She also helped me figure out situations that she really didn t have to. She helped me with the florals, the linens, the schedule.
She was just there for me through the entire thing. Even when I was anxious and needed to talk it through. She knew every single detail of our day.
She went above and beyond with our wedding and because of that i was calm and confident the entire day.
And the day of your wedding she is always there. Anytime I would look for her she was there. And that honestly made me positive everything was going perfect.

As a matter of fact... after everyone was cleared out and I was about to get into our car to leave I simply couldn t without going back and hugging her one more time.

She was such a huge part of our day. And I made such a wonderful friend.

Don t hesitate

Just saw postmodern jukebox. Show was great! Beautiful venue!

We saw Rodrigo y Gabriela here. What a concert, and what a venue! I've never been to this part of Joliet before, and didn't know there would be such a lovely theatre there. Lots of fun places to eat and drink right nearby, plenty of parking. We are looking forward to having an opportunity to come back. Beautiful place

Had a lovely christmas concert bythe American Legion Band. Beautiful songs and great decorations

Beautiful theatre. The tour is great especially for only $5.

Really enjoyed the venue. Went to see Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox. Great venue for the mashup of modern pop with a 1920 spin on arrangement. Very cool indeed, went as a Pre-Valentines date, so it was perfect.

One of the most beautiful venues you can imagine. Simply breath-taking.

I worked on a production (shot a pilot for a TV show) here, but I haven't been to an event here.
So I can tell you it's an absolutely beautiful theater, but I have no insight into their sound system etc.
Easily accessible from the city or 'burbs.
Looking forward to seeing a performance here once COVID is under control and we can venture out into public again.

Beautiful intricately decorated old theater. Wish the seats were more staggered so it would be easier to see the stage and not have to look over or around the person in front of u. The seats toward back appeared more on an angle which was nice. Balcony seats appeared better viewing as well.

Beautiful theater. If your favorite venue is there, go see them

Just as beautiful as it was when i was a kid Great place to see a band, the sound was incredible. There's not a bad seat in the place, excellent view!!

Place is beautiful! Attended a recital for my neice!

Good venue for a concert - sightlines, acoustics, amenities all solid.

this show was outstanding if it comes back again next year don't miss it you will love it you will laugh you will be jaw dropped it was exciting wonderful
