    Catch a Show in Gilded Splendor at the Riley Center's Grand Opera House

    A quick 15-minute cruise west of Meridian East / Toomsuba KOA Journey lands you in downtown Meridian at the MSU Riley Center, home to the fully restored Grand Opera House (1889)—a 950-seat Victorian jewel that dazzles audiences and architecture buffs alike. After sitting dark for 79 years, the theater re-opened in 2006 following a $25 million facelift and now anchors the city's cultural renaissance.

    Why It's a Must-Do:

    • Historic eye-candy – Hand-painted opera boxes, curved balconies, and a midnight-blue domed ceiling make every visit Insta-worthy (arrive early to explore all three levels).
    • Big acts, intimate room – From B.B. King to Broadway tours, the 950-seat hall lets you see A-list talent without arena binoculars.
    • Year-round lineup – Concerts, comedy, kids' shows, and classic films keep the calendar packed. Check msurileycenter.com for the current schedule or call the box office.
    • Behind-the-scenes tours – Weekday tours (by appointment) reveal hidden stage mechanics and the story of its dramatic rescue from decay—great for history lovers.

    Box Office Mon–Fri 9 a.m.–5 p.m. & one hour before showtime.

    Parking: Free street parking nights/weekends; use the 22nd Ave. garage for big events

    Accessibility Elevator to all floors, assisted-listening devices available

    Pro tip: Snag balcony seats for ornate railing views, then pop across the street to the Threefoot Hotel's rooftop bar for post-show city lights.

    Getting There from the KOA
    1. Exit the campground and turn right on Will Garrett Rd.
    2. Merge onto I-20/59 W toward Meridian.
    3. Take Exit 154B (22nd Avenue) and follow signs into downtown.
    4. Turn left on 5th Street; the red-and-white brick Riley Center will be on your right.

    Camp • Applaud • Repeat

    Whether you're catching a Grammy-winner or touring the ornate hall, the Grand Opera House adds a splash of elegance to your RV getaway.See you back at the campfire—encore stories welcome!
