Formerly a movie theater, the Rialto now hosts regular performances by the Northwest Sinfonietta, the Puget Sound Revels and the Tacoma Youth Symphony Association.

It is a 742-seat facility and was designed in the Beaux Arts style by Rolland Borhek. The movie theatre opened September of 1918 and functioned as such through the 1980's.

In 1990 a nonprofit organization with funding from the City of Tacoma and its City Council, bought the theater and remodeled it. The organization is called the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts. The Rialto is now used for live performances only.
