Channel 24

Sacramento, CA

As part of the R Street Corridor Redevelopment, Channel 24 is an urban infill project that transformed a vacant industrial/commercial building in Midtown into a vibrant two-story entertainment destination. Offering flexibility and state-of-the-art performance space, the 42,700-square-foot, 2,150-patron-capacity theater is designed to host a wide range of events, such as live music, comedy shows, podcasts, lectures, and corporate functions.

The venue features a 14,000-square-foot main-floor theater, a tiered second-story balcony with seating and an open-air outdoor balcony, box office, spacious lobby, multiple concessions and bars, catering kitchen, mezzanine, and dedicated artist amenities, including dressing rooms.

Architecturally, Channel 24 draws inspiration from the industrial heritage of R Street, blending board-formed concrete, rusted corrugated metal, and black gridded windows. The result is a bold, urban aesthetic that feels both modern and rooted in its context.
