MPAC Renovation

The McKinney Performing Arts Center (MPAC) is undergoing an exciting renovation that honors the past while preparing the historic courthouse theater for the future. This renovation is designed to preserve the building’s architectural integrity while introducing modern amenities and safety upgrades, approved by the Texas Historical Commission.

This long-term investment will restore many original architectural details while introducing modern updates to elevate the overall guest experience.

When complete, MPAC will continue to serve as a cherished cultural landmark.
