Mandeville Auditorium

Completed in 1975 among mature eucalyptus trees, this 752-seat auditorium is operated by UC San Diego's Department of Music. Its concrete shell houses a 42-foot-wide by 30-foot-deep stage opening with adaptable front seating, accommodating events ranging from chamber music and dance to campus lectures. The space serves as regular performance ground for the La Jolla Symphony & Chorus and university ensembles, while staging touring guests that have included Ravi Shankar, the Kronos Quartet, David Sedaris, and Spike & Mike's Festival of Animation.
