The Wellmont Theater
The Wellmont Theater is a concert venue and event space in Montclair, New Jersey, United States. Formerly operating as a movie theater, the Wellmont opened for business in 1922 with its original entrance at 400, Bloomfield Avenue. In 2008, the theater underwent a $3 million dollar renovation by architects Brian Swier and Michael Constantin. The revamped space included new stage lighting, flooring and a cutting-edge sound system.
The current owners of the Wellmont Theater, Pinnacle Companies, reopened the space in September 2015 with an expanded concert lineup. Following the ownership transfer, the historic theater underwent another upgrade with the construction of a music-themed restaurant and lobby bar.
