Sacramento
Memorial Auditorium Event Tickets
What hasn't the Sacramento Memorial Auditorium seen in its 71-year history? Roller derbies, basketball games, grudge wrestling matches with Hulk Hogan and high school graduations have all headlined there, not to mention more than a fair share of concerts. Iron Maiden, Duke Ellington, the Beach Boys (who recorded a live album from the Memorial in 1964) and countless others have graced the Memorial's stage. Sacramento Memorial Auditorium opened in 1927 on a block donated by Sacramento city founder John Sutter and dedicated to Sacramentans who died in war. An honor roll listing Sacramentans killed in battle from the Spanish American War through Persian Gulf War is housed in a room adjacent to the main lobby. In its early years, swing concerts, circuses and movies accompanied by a looming pipe organ formed the auditorium's rotating lineup. The Memorial kept its doors open until numerous health and fire code violations and the need for earthquake retrofit forced it to close in 1986. It would take six years for community leaders and voters to agree on an initiative -- 1992's Measure H -- that would allocate funding and devise a plan for resurrecting the Sacramento Memorial Auditorium into the facility it is today. |
