CultureEasySpringSummerYear-round

Experience Broadway-caliber musicals set against a backdrop of 1,500-foot red rock cliffs in the Padre Canyon at night.

Itinerary tips

  • 1Plan to arrive at least 90 minutes early to enjoy the 'Canyon Tales' pre-show and explore the gift shop and café.
  • 2Pack a light jacket or blanket even in summer, as temperatures in Padre Canyon drop significantly once the sun sets.
  • 3Rent a seat cushion at the entrance to ensure comfort during the three-hour Broadway-style productions.
  • 4Utilize the shuttle service from the upper parking lots if you arrive late to avoid a steep uphill walk to the box office.
  • 5Book your tickets for a Monday or Tuesday night performance to secure better seating options and avoid the peak weekend crowds.
  • 6Visit the concession stand during the first act to beat the massive rush that occurs during the 20-minute intermission.
