PALM BEACH’S iconic waterfront theater OPENINg IN 2025
The Innovate, a nonprofit 501c3 organization, will be Palm Beach’s premier waterfront arts and cultural center, set to open to the public in 2025. Our mission is to inspire audiences of all ages and deepen human connection through the arts.

The state-of-the-art venue will include a state-of-the-art, 400-seat jewel box theater and full-service catering kitchen, available for events all year round. Whether it’s welcoming international artists to our stage, or forging space for play, experimentation, and learning, The Innovate will highlight Palm Beach as a center for culture and creativity.

We are overwhelmed by the interest in and support of The Innovate expressed by so many in our community. As we plan for The Innovate’s inaugural year, we offer numerous ways for individuals and businesses to play a key role in supporting this transformational project through naming opportunities, program sponsorships and membership. In addition, our Take A Seat campaign provides a meaningful way to join others and show your support.
We invite you to join us in shaping The INNOVATE. Whether welcoming international artists to our stage, or forging space for play, experimentation, and learning, The Innovate will spotlight Palm Beach as a center for the arts, and cultural creativity.
