RENTALS


We want to be YOUR home theatre!!!

If the following doesn’t answer all of your rental questions, or if you would like to book an even reservation, please contact our event coordinator at the address below.

You can rent either theatre for just $60/hr.
OR

$80/hr to rent BOTH!!!! 
(Yup, the whole enchilada) 

Whether it is for a birthday party,  a business conference, a dance recital, awards ceremony, graduation, or a televised sporting event, you can host your gathering here.

Our digital multi-media capabilities allow us to offer you virtually unlimited flexibility for your entertainment and presentation needs.  

There is NO additional charge for the use of our
multi-media system. 

If you wish to have a private screening of whatever feature film we have in-house, we are REQUIRED to charge our standard admission for each person attending. 

You and your friends can get together for a DVD marathon and watch those directors-cut / special edition features on the big screen as they were meant to be seen.   
(Manager's note:  DVD’s actually look better than films…and that’s cool stuff!) 

Watch the play-offs, the Oscars, or the New Years ball-drop.  Bring a video tape of your kids latest game or academic event.  Bring a video game to play on our Playstation 2 console, or rent one from the gigantic selection at the VideoStation (800 Mallard Lane)…the fourth largest selection of video titles in the COUNTRY).  

Do you have a computer game on your personal computer that you’d like to play on our big screen with 13,000 watts of sound and a sub-woofer the size of a small car? 

Perhaps you have a business meeting or training session that would benefit from our capabilities.  

All this , at your disposal for $60/hr!!!

(Manager's note:  A big screen TV has a diagonal dimension of 42”.   A REALLY big screen TV has a diagonal dimension of up to 62”.    OUR screen has a diagonal dimension of over  500”…not that we’re bragging or anything…) 

What is involved:

Our rental rate is $60/hour.  

We require a $60 deposit to place your reservation and lock-in the date/time.  At the conclusion of your event, this deposit can then be applied towards the total at the end of your party. 
Reservation deposits are non-refundable since it blocks a date.

We allow some outside food (birthday cakes, pizza, etc) but ask that nothing be brought in that we can provide through our concessions area since that is where we make our money. 
We keep our concession prices a low as possible and even offer a special combo-price for parties.

We have a 4’ and an 8’ table available for your use and you can provide table coverings and decorations to fit the tone of your event.  You may come in and do your set-up/decorations 30 minutes prior to your reservation start time – no charge for this 30 minute preparation time. 

Events cannot be scheduled in conflict with our scheduled showtimes for public features (studios don’t like getting bumped).  That means that we can schedule parties any day of the week so-long as the party wraps up at least 1 hour prior to the start time of the first public showing.  That gives us time to clean-up and set-up for our regular movie.
 

We strongly recommend booking at least a month in advance to assure the best availability of dates.  If a deposit is in place, that date is booked.

If you provide family photos in an electronic format (disk, portable drive, etc) we will gladly run a slideshow of your photos before and after your event …big-time baby pictures… recitals, sports, family reunions, past birthdays… etc. etc. buwahahaaaaaa  J

If you have additional questions, or would like to inquire about date availability:

Please contact our reservations

Reservation Manager, Susan Pope via email at
info@howardtheatre.com
or
leave a message for her at 512-352-2995 and someone will get back to you as soon as possible

 

We will be happy to answer questions, reserve your dates, and help in any way we can to make your event a GREAT experience.

 

Thank you for considering The Howard Theatre for your event needs! Some REALLY GREAT parties have happened at The Howard.
