In Short – When the Herberger's Center Stage just isn't big enough for a Broadway blockbuster or that sold-out Yanni concert, this stylish downtown Phoenix venue is booked for the gig. With elegant, hand-blown Venetian glass chandeliers and a photogenic Peacock Fountain, the cavernous Symphony Hall is home to the well-respected Phoenix Symphony Orchestra and the Arizona Opera. In between performances by those local institutions, the symphony hall manages to squeeze in everything from hot musical toe-tappers imported from the Great White Way to contemporary concerts.
