Nestled along the waterfront in the historic Southwest neighborhood of Washington, D.C., the Mead Center for American Theater offers a unique blend of breathtaking views, stunning architecture, theatrical history, and world-class hospitality.

Your guests will be impressed from front door to stage door. Enclosed by a 56’ glass wall, the Mead Center houses the fully-restored and historic Fichandler Stage and Kreeger Theater, the brand-new Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle, and nearly 15,000 square feet of lobby, meeting and event space.

A magnificent, custom-designed carpet in hues of red, orange and yellow spans the first floor lobbies and Grand Lobby. Perched atop the roof of the Kreeger Theater, the third floor café offers a birds-eye view of the entire Mead Center and features a contemporary rock garden. The center is completed by the open-air Terrace, which offers breathtaking views of the Waterfront and Washington Monument.
