We welcome you to become a part of the Mankato Event Center’s legacy of music and entertainment! Located in the playful heart of Mankato’s downtown entertainment district, this historic venue boasts a rich tradition of musical performances – everything from hard rock bands to acoustic singer-songwriters, karaoke events, Electronic Dance Music raves, and is the proud new home of Mankato Playhouse, the area’s newest musical theater company.

With its recently upgraded sound system and stage lights, this cozy creative space is ready to host your next comedy show, open mic night, theater performance, or dance party. If your vision for the evening includes food or drinks, the attached commercial kitchen and stylish bar provide plenty of options for catering and alcohol service.
