About
The Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk is an outdoor live entertainment venue that opened in July 2016. The 5,000-seat covered open-air amphitheater – the first of its kind in the Tri-State area – hosts a mix of concerts, family shows, sports, comedy, and multicultural events.
The amphitheater has six custom-designed steel doors that weigh a whopping 15 tons – each. They open to reveal the stage, which extends into the newly renovated Childs Building, but can be closed during the off-season to protect visitors from the cold and provide a smaller, more intimate performance space.
