The Tuscaloosa Amphitheater sits on 15 acres on the banks of the Black Warrior River.

In 2011, the 7,470-square-foot outdoor amphitheater held its first act with the Avett Brothers and Band of Horses. But plans for the facility came years earlier, starting in 2003.

“We developed a riverfront master plan and it included an amphitheater right here at this site,” said Tuscaloosa Mayor Walt Maddox.

A decade later, Maddox said he couldn’t be more pleased with the amphitheater’s success.

“To take a landfill that could produce nothing and today have it produce economic viability and improve our quality of life; I’m certainly proud to have been part of that journey,” said Maddox.

Maddox said the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater is a signature venue for the city of Tuscaloosa, and he’s really proud of everything surrounding it.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began in March 2020, the amphitheater has been closed to performances, but that ends in June.

“Right now, we’ve only announced one show,” said Director of Public Services Stacy Vaughn. “It’s already on sale. It’s John Pardi with Larry Fleet coming on June 17. It will be a social-distanced show.”
