See AllGranada Theater In 1997 the Santa Barbara Center for the Performing Arts (SBCPA) began a two-year exploration of potential performing arts center sites in Santa Barbara. After commissioning and reviewing several feasibility studies, the SBCPA board concluded that renovating a downtown theater was a better alternative than building an entirely new performing arts center. The SBCPA board settled on The Granada Theatre as the ideal site for several reasons — its downtown location, excellent natural acoustics, and the opportunity to undertake a restoration rather than the far more expensive creation of a completely new structure.Santa Barbara Mission Old Mission Santa Barbara believes in radical hospitality.
