We have been here two times to see ballets performed. Â The staff is super friendly and helpful. Â The decor is gorgeous on the inside. Â The one down side is that due to this being an older theater, the seating is more flat, making it hard to see around the person seated in front of you if they have any height.
Review Source:Such a beautiful venue! Â Our daughter was in a ballet here this weekend and I think we had almost as much fun exploring as she had performing. Â The ornate decor invites one to study every color, curve and edge. Â The ghost stories about the theater spark imagination. Â The acoustics are good. Â The staff kept it clean and were very helpful and professional. Â My grandmother was disappointed that the organ that used to play while she came to watch Shirley Temple moving pictures was nowhere to be found. Â Other than that, everyone in our party had nothing but positive things to say about this gorgeous venue.
Review Source:This theater, performance hall, whatever you want to call it, is gorgeous! Â I've had the pleasure of attending two concerts here, one in a smaller stage, and another on the main stage. Â Both times, even though the main stage is significantly larger than the smaller stage, felt intimate.
Review Source:My one and only complaint, a big one, about the theater is their poor marketing strategy regarding ticket sales.  If the customer buys online, there is $6.00+ fee tacked on for each ticket.   Even onsite and telephone sales get a $1 tacked on for each ticket.  When customers purchase online, prices should be lower since it eliminates overhead of ticket sales persons and telephone staff.  The extra fees tend to insinuate gouging like the practices of <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2FTicketmaster.com&s=e1217eb64fee13d4cf088ac04cc3f5f087054d28f78c4e9686d5797184c1f040" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://Ticketmaster.com</a> (they were sued  for this practice). Â
In other sectors, such as airline ticketing, companies usually do not charge (and in some cases even offer a discount), for electronic ticketing. Economist Emily Oster of the Chicago Booth School of Business suggests that this reflects the lack of competition in the industry, with customers willing to pay more for the convenience of obtaining the tickets immediately due to a lack of alternate options
At the very least, Mt. Baker Theater should price tickets so there is no adder for this and that...it is soooo annoying and reflects poorly on the organization, in my view.
I will not go to any concert where the ticket prices online are more than published prices based on principle.
An intimate little performance hall, seating a mere 1500 people and yet it draws well known acts to showcase their talent. What a sweet deal for all comers! Plenty of FREE parking nearby, easy strolls to the ticketbox, lots of area restaurants to choose from before walking in to find a seat.
Once inside? WOW!!
Gorgeous remodel recently finished and boy was it well worth it. Acoustics, heat, and lighting are top rate now. The interior decor is lush and inviting, velvet red seats are plush and comfortable.
Amenities: wine and beer, snacks, friendly ushers, clean and well maintained restrooms, and plenty of doors for exiting with ease once events are over.
If a venue can be described in human terms, this place is like visiting a friends nice old aunt. The only thing missing is a cup of tea. This is one of those historic, classic old places with insane detailing and woodwork and amazing light fixtures. It's an intimate place where you feel close to the performers, but the room is large enough for more popular attractions.
Even outside the auditorium on the upper level there are couches to relax on during the intermission or before the performance.
Inside, the seating is slightly sloped and chairs are well padded. (My bony butt did not complain!)
But who could sit still watching a show like Johny Clegg? I was bouncing all over to the S. African rhythms and enjoyed every moment.
This theater should be well taken care of in her old age and preserved. I'm sure she has a lot of stories to tell.
This is a beautiful old theater in the heart of Bellingham's downtown district, and surprisingly enough they do get big name acts coming through on a somewhat regular basis. Â I've seen Tom Jones and Loreena McKennit here, making the 70 mile drive up from where I was living at the time because I like Bellingham and this theater far more than the Paramount down in Seattle.
Parking can be a bit questionable, but being Bellingham you can usually find a spot several streets away. Â I like to get there early and find some place to have dinner before the show.
This is a very charming, clean, and fun theater! Â I recently saw Lewis Black here and there isn't a bad seat in the house-really! Â The facilities are clean and the acoustics are wonderful as well. Â The seating was laid out nicely so everyone had plenty of room and wasn't crammed into their neighbor's laps.
