The Flagstar Strand Theatre is located at 12 N. Saginaw Street, just north of Pike Street, in downtown Pontiac.

 

More than 2,100 parking spaces exist within a three-minute walk of the theater. The spaces are well lit, privately managed, clean and safe.

Downtown Pontiac is Oakland County’s most accessible city. Some 4.5 million people reside within a 40 minute radius and 2 million people are within a 20 minute drive. Woodward Avenue, M-59, I-75, and Telegraph Road are all major feeders into the downtown district.

Statistics show that downtown Pontiac is one of Oakland County’s safest communities. Patrolled by the Oakland County Sheriff, private security firms and downtown resident McLaren Oakland Hospital, the city is safe and has seen a 30% decrease in crime. For most events, The Flagstar Strand is staffed with a doorman as well as greeters both inside and outside the theater to provide assistance and support for guests. The Flagstar Strand Theatre is located in the heart of city’s historic restaurant and retail district which is lined with charming buildings, a decorative streetscape and beautiful landscaping. This traditional “main street” setting is welcoming to diners, shoppers and theater goers.
