One-of-a-Kind Private Event Experience: From Concert Venue to Corporate Awards Dinner
Nestled in the heart of the Nation’s Capital, The Howard Theatre stands firmly as a cultural institution and community centerpiece since its grand opening in 1910. From Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, and Louis Armstrong, to Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, and James Brown, The Howard’s storied history makes this venue a one-of-a-kind guest experience for all who enter.
Staying true to its roots, “The Theatre for the People” is more than just a concert hall — it’s an extension of the vibrant community that is Washington, D.C. Whether it’s a corporate meeting, wedding reception, charity fundraiser, holiday party, awards show, or social event, The Howard offers a customizable event space for groups between 50 - 750 guests.
Preserved as a national historic site, The Howard reopened its doors in 2012 after a multi-million dollar renovation aimed to preserve the iconic attributes of the venue, while modernizing it to meet today’s entertainment standards and enhancing the guest experience for both concertgoers and event attendees alike.
