History
The Iroquois Amphitheater was constructed in the spring of 1938 through federal Works Progress Administration labor. The facility has been a source of pride for South Louisville for decades, although years of patchwork repair created problems in the Amphitheater, taking it away from its original historic design. After the 2000 performance season, Metro Parks began an ambitious project to modernize the facility while preserving the Amphitheater's historic features and unique character. The original 1938 stagehouse was carefully restored, and historic materials were saved and re-used in the renovated Amphitheater. The renovated Iroquois Amphitheater offers greatly expanded opportunities for the highest quality arts entertainment while staying true to the historic spirit of the facility.
