According to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry, Philadelphians contributed relief funds of $18,000.
Three morgues were set up and approximately fifteen thousand people attended funerals on a single day.
One hundred and five new graves were dug in Boyertown's Fairview Cemetery.

Just over $22,000 was received in response to an appeal for contributions toward burial of the dead.

The incident spurred the Pennsylvania legislature into passing new legislative standards for doors, landings, lighting, curtains, fire extinguishers, aisles, and marked exits.
All doors were required to open outward and remain unlocked.
Pennsylvania governor Edwin Stuart signed Pennsylvania's first fire law on May 3, 1909.

The building of apartments and stores has now been built on the former opera house's site with a plaque commemorating the tragedy.
