Long Center Terrace & Hartman Concert Lawn
Step outside onto the Long Center Terrace and enjoy a unique, breathtaking view of downtown Austin.
Austin’s favorite community gathering place, our Long Center Terrace and expansive lawn have played host to countless festivals, performances, weddings, movies, and celebrations over the years.
Long Center Terrace
Surrounded by our iconic Ring Beam and columns that frame the venue, the Long Center Terrace is well-suited for all manner of outdoor events. This space also welcomes small tents or booths and food trucks (weight restrictions apply), coming to life at night with dramatic lighting for a special effect. Depending on the type of event, the Long Center Terrace accommodates up to 2,000 people.
Hartman Concert Lawn
This expansive and flexible green space is adjacent to the Long Center Terrace. Its gentle slope provides an amphitheater-like feel to outdoor concerts and includes the compression ring from the original Palmer Auditorium, which now serves as an ambient lighting feature and small stage.
