The arena is also located on the "Madison Mile", an economic development that connects the venue and Doak Campbell Stadium.

The arena has upholstered seats for sporting events, concerts, touring Broadway productions and family shows.

The theater provides not only a traditional counterweight system for shows accustomed to a conventional theatre venue, but also a perfect setting for musical artists that prefer a more intimate performance space.

It is equipped with a state-of-the-art sound system capable of providing reinforcement for upper level and club seat fill, as well as motorized clusters that may be utilized for additional support.

The Centre Theater has been proud to host the Tallahassee Broadway Series for the last 11 years and has presented such tours as Les Misérables, Riverdance, Cats, Beauty and the Beast, Chicago, Fosse and Rent.

The arena received new seats, Jumbotrons including new LED ribbon boards, and a new floor, all at the cost of $10 million.

In 2001, the Florida Senate proposed reverting the civic center to its original name; however, this provision was vetoed.

It has previously played host to tapings of WCW Thunder and WWF SmackDown!, WWE Live Events, men's and women's basketball tournaments and the inaugural League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational in 2015.
