Ogden Theatre is a historic venue that has entertained audiences since 1918, first with vaudeville performances by legends like Harry Houdini and later as a movie theater.

With approximately 150 concerts annually, the Ogden is a local favorite for good reason. This premier concert venue has a maximum capacity of 1,600 for concerts and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Whether you're an indie rock, metal, or hip hop fan, the Ogden hosts the hottest club tours in the US.
