Nice venue, great front center seats. The Frank Sinatra/ Dean Martin tribute guys were terrific.

Love Mardels! Everything from gifts, to homeschool and Sunday School materials, a great inventory of Christian books, and clothing--- to say nothing of their great decor selection.
Diane Rossi
Enjoy Sunday morning church service there.

Am embarrassed to say that even though my family and I have lived in Hewitt since 2005, this was our first visit to the Hippodrome (We Are Messengers concert.) What a historic venue, and we will definitely be back

It was a great night for me and my girlfriend.the hippodrome was really nice has a lot of history behind it the workers were really nice. Hell one of the ladies took me and my girlfriend to whataburger so we would not have to wait there for an Uber if and when I get a chance to go back I’ll be there
This is an historic building that, like the Tardis, seems bigger on the inside. When I say historic, I mean it, they have photos lining the hallway outside the theater with several famous vintage acts.Once you get used to the seating arrangements, everything makes sense (seat 1 to 4 on each row are on the far right with an aisle separating it from seat 5 and up until another aisle and 4 more seats on the left.) We saw several people sit in the wrong spots and adjust when someone came for the seat.It is a smaller more intimate venue which I think is perfect for some shows. Parking can be confusing so get there early and drive around a little. The sound is good and I expect to see several shows here.

The Hippodrome is a great historic venue of Waco. I don't believe the Waco Comedy Jam was a good look for them. I get comedy can be crude and unapologetic as an art form, but it wasn't funny. To be crude and also not funny isn't a good look. Seemed like some friends got together and threw together a scheme to make some extra cash. I'm not counting out the Hippodrome in the future, but this experience missed the mark.

A more than amazing theater in the heart of Waco that is sure to impress with its great shows and events. Definitely worth walking around inside on a non-busy day!For film and theater students this is a true gem of a space to work in.
