Group Leader Resources Thank you for choosing the Marcus Center for your group event.  We are committed to making your trip to the Marcus Center For The Performing Arts a great experience and have included some information below that will help you plan your outing.

Bus Parking for Matinee Performances

To ensure that all patrons are seated on time, plan to arrive thirty minutes before the performance starts.

Uihlein Hall

Drivers are asked to drop patrons off at the lobby entrance located at 929 N. Water Street.  This is the front (east) entrance and a small drive is provided to stop for drop off.  Please use this drive to ensure the safety of the patrons exiting the bus.
