It’s like they say — what is old is new again.
Danny Wimmer Presents, the group behind the Bourbon & Beyond and Louder Than Life music festivals, has entered into a multi-year partnership with the Louisville Metro Department of Parks and Recreation to bring more nationally touring acts to Iroquois Amphitheater.
The deal includes a refresh of the 87-year-old venue’s branding, including a new logo and a new website.
But the real headliners are on the 2025 schedule — which includes 29 scheduled concerts, up from just 10 in 2024. Here are a few highlights:
- CAKE — April 21 + 22, tickets on sale now
- Dwight Yoakam — April 25, standing room tickets go on sale Friday, Jan. 31 at 12 p.m.
- Bonnie Raitt — May 10, standing room tickets go on sale Friday, Jan. 31 at 12 p.m.
- Wilco — May 17, standing room tickets go on sale Friday, Jan. 31 at 12 p.m.
- Barenaked Ladies — July 29, ticket sales TBD
Longtime community-favorite events like the Jack O’ Lantern Spectacular and the free summer movie series — called, “Hollywood Classics Under the Stars” — are set to continue.
Fun fact: The 2,348-seat venue is the official amphitheater of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Learn more history.
