Concerts and Events

We are delighted that you are considering First United Methodist Church in downtown Palo Alto for your next concert or event. The Sanctuary has a total seating capacity of 525. Several pews on the main floor provide handicapped seating. We have the ability to install a stage over the chancel steps, as we do for such groups as Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, and the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra. Risers for choral groups, a limited number of music stands, and a conductor’s podium are available.

• We rent our facility only to non profit organizations. You must provide a copy of your 501(C)3 and evidence of liability insurance for the event.
• We do not rent to individuals.
