The main lobby and entryway of the Phillippe Performing Arts Center is beautifully decorated with unique architectural design. Marble flooring and wall detail invite visitors into an open, formal foyer, with coat check and hospitality windows located on either side. Cathedral ceilings open to the second floor balcony foyer, and plenty of windows allow the entire area to be flooded with natural light. At the center of the main lobby, four stone pillars encircle a modern-style rotunda, and two main entrances lead into the chapel and auditorium. Restroom facilities are located on each side of the lobby, and two stairways and an elevator provide access to the balcony level.

The second floor foyer showcases a magnificent wall of curved windows which accent the front of the building. Here, two entrances lead into the auditorium's balcony seating area, which rises 26 feet above the main level. Technical booths as well as light and control rooms are located on a third level, accessible from the balcony.
