About Penrith Panthers
Penrith Panthers in Sydney’s west centres its ticketed concert offer on the 850-capacity EVAN Theatre. The defining feature is a full-production room inside a large licensed-club complex: a permanent theatrical stage, tiered seating and a dedicated bar give touring shows a properly contained setting, while the surrounding club adds restaurants and extra bars before or after the set. It suits audiences seeking a seated, close-range show without the scale of an arena.
From Saturday dances to EVAN
The Panthers story began in 1956, when volunteer labour built the first Penrith Rugby League Club on Station Street. That early club had two rooms and a hall used for Saturday-night dances, special occasions and functions. Panthers World of Entertainment opened on the present Mulgoa Road site in 1984, expanding the club’s entertainment role alongside its rugby-league identity. In 1997, the EVAN Theatre opened, establishing a dedicated concert room within the complex. Panthers records Cold Chisel, INXS, Midnight Oil, Rose Tattoo and John Farnham among the artists drawn to the theatre in its early history; the choice of acts places Australian rock at the centre of the room’s founding reputation.
The room today
EVAN Theatre takes public shows and private hires, with seating configurations for theatre, cabaret and standing events. Its programme reaches across rock, pop, R&B and heavy music, alongside comedy, musicals and community performances; 2026 listings include CDB’s R&B-focused tour and British glam-rock group SWEET. For concertgoers, the useful practical detail is the fixed, tiered gallery format and permanent stage, backed by professional sound and lighting. Multiple bars across the club make it easy to turn a show into an evening out.
