Federal Way Performing Arts and Event Center

The PAEC is a multipurpose venue designed to host theater, music, dance, art and spoken-word performances. Adjoining event spaces can host more than 400 for gala seating, or be transformed into settings ideal for conferences, seminars, meetings and weddings. The exclusive green room cantilevers over the main lobby. Majestic mountain views are abundant from the PAEC’s perch above the city, an enchanting backdrop for striking event photographs.

The entire building is soundproofed, a dream for overlapping events and seamless transitions. For patrons with hearing loss, the advanced hearing loop system throughout the theater puts the presentation directly into their ears. The radically accessible space offers up to 40 handicapped-accessible theater seats.

The center is a hybrid: equal parts theater and conference center. Meeting rooms and even the lobby are flexible spaces, transforming to meet event needs. The latest in audiovisual equipment is ready to support any performance or presentation. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout.

The 46,000-square-foot Performing Arts & Event Center and four-acre site feature an outdoor plaza that connects with the recently completed Town Center Park. These provide new spaces for the community to gather and pedestrian access to the surrounding area. Ample free parking awaits as well.
