The Heritage Theater in San Jose, California is a unique venue that relies completely on dedicated volunteers. Not only do they work to maintain the theater’s appearance, but their hard work also supports a diverse lineup of performances throughout the year. From plays, concerts, and lectures to dance performances and films, every visit promises an unforgettable experience.

The iconic venue opened its doors in 1940 and has since stood as one of the most iconic in the city. Steeped in history, it hosted US President Franklin D. Roosevelt on opening night and was used as an Army hospital during WWII. Although modern upgrades have been made for sound quality and comfortability, it still stands as an iconic reminder of California's Wild West era - hosting major musicals like Oklahoma!, Calamity Jane, The Music Man, and more up until today.

San Jose, with its great array of attractions, culinary delights, and abundance of outdoor activities, is a great place to visit. Spend your days visiting the many parks throughout the city to enjoy lush outdoor spaces. Take a drive along picturesque Highway 17 and let its winding road take you through magnificent redwood forests. Soak up some sun at one of San Jose’s local beaches or head to Alum Rock Park for a thrilling ride down the zip line with excellent views over the landscape. Enjoy fine dining experiences along the Alameda or downtown Campbell for unique American food paired with craft beer. Wander around Santana Row and absorb the vibrant atmosphere with its mix of chic shops, trendy restaurants, and cafes filled with creative minds working on new ideas. There is much more beyond that experience too: attend an event at any of San Jose’s various venues or take in some culture by viewing spectacular works of art.
