The Fresnel Theater is located in the heart of Downtown Portland, ME. We are in the basement level of the One Monument Way building.
17 Free St.
Portland ME 04101
Parking: Street parking is available in the area for free after 6pm, but often the area gets crowded on the weekends. The One City Center Parking Garage is next door to the theater, and there's an open pay lot across the street as well. More parking garages are available if you're willing to walk a block or two (the Temple St garage, or the garage by the Holiday Inn).
Unfortunately, we don't currently have wheelchair access. If you are interested in seeing our show but need an accessible location, please email us so we can notify you when we do a show at an ADA compliant venue.
