What to expect
Planning a visit to St. Raphael Catholic Church
Choose this venue for an Apollo's Fire program presented in an active church rather than a purpose-built concert hall. Confirm the presenter's admission and seating format, event entrance, program, run time, and accessibility arrangements, then check the current parish schedule and Apollo's Fire venue guide for church-lot parking and accessible arrival information.
