Pensacola State College Ashmore Auditorium

Ashmore Auditorium is the main stage for the Performing Arts Department at Pensacola State College. Student actors, musicians and community ensembles fill its season with plays, musicals and concerts, often at prices well below what touring shows cost, which makes it a practical night out for families and theater fans.

The auditorium is in Building 8 on the Pensacola campus at 1000 College Blvd, Pensacola, FL 32504. The performing arts box office is at 850-484-1800 (toll-free 888-897-3605), and the schedule is posted at performingarts.pensacolastate.edu. The fall 2026 lineup includes the PSC Wind and Jazz Ensembles fall concert on October 1 (free, no ticket needed), the Pensacola Civic Band’s “A Time to Dance” on October 17 and “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” from October 23 to November 1.

The college also runs a Planetarium and Space Theatre in Building 21 on the same campus, with public shows such as a Pink Floyd planetarium program on October 2, 2026. Pairing a planetarium show with a performance is an easy way to make a full evening of it.

Ticket prices vary by event, and some concerts are free. Check the performing arts website or call the box office for showtimes, tickets and a seating chart before you go.
