FirstBank Amphitheater

Franklin, Tennessee, United States

FirstBank Amphitheater concert venue in Franklin, Tennessee

Why it matters

FirstBank Amphitheater opened in 2021 inside a reclaimed limestone quarry in Franklin. The rock walls surrounding the stage are not decoration; they are the actual site, giving the venue one of the most unusual natural backdrops of any major amphitheatre in the country.

Getting there

FirstBank Amphitheater is built into a quarry outside downtown Franklin and is not a walk-in venue. Use the official parking and shuttle system, arrive well before doors and expect a longer walk through the site than at a conventional amphitheatre.

Bag policy

Entry screening at FirstBank Amphitheater follows the rule posted for the event configuration. Review the official venue policy on show day, especially if you need a medical, parenting or accessibility exception.

Local tips

The quarry setting is beautiful but not walkable from downtown Franklin. Use the official parking and shuttle plan and arrive early enough to handle the long approach into the site. Comfortable shoes matter because the venue is built into uneven quarry terrain.
