Opened in 1928, this extravagant Roaring Twenties-era performing arts theater hosts many live musical & theatrical productions throughout the year. Offers nearly 3,000 seats surrounded with golden decor.
The Landmark Theatre, originally known as Loew's State Theater, is a historic theater from the era of movie palaces, located on South Salina Street in Syracuse, New York, United States. Designed by Thomas W. Lamb, it is the city's only surviving example of the opulent theatrical venues of the 1920s. The Landmark is on the National Register of Historic Places. Saved from demolition by a community campaign in the 1970s, it is run by the nonprofit Syracuse Area Landmark Theatre and hosts touring Broadway productions and concerts; a restoration of the auditorium's original colors was completed in 2025.
