Secure Agora Theatre tickets to experience Cleveland’s legendary hub for live entertainment. The Agora Theatre originally opened in 1966 as a dance club near Cleveland State University. The venue quickly became a hotspot, spotlighting local bands and dance hits that packed the house nightly. Its innovative approach to live music increased its reputation, and it soon began hosting national acts like the Velvet Underground and the Bob Seger System. The Agora also transformed its upstairs space into a recording studio, with local radio station WMMS-FM broadcasting live concerts that extended its influence far beyond Cleveland.
The Agora played a significant role in launching careers, with performers such as Kiss, Bruce Springsteen, ZZ Top and Peter Frampton gaining significant exposure after performing at the music venue. Shows like those helped solidify the Agora's reputation as a cradle of rock and roll. After a fire in 1984 temporarily shuttered the venue, it reopened two years later at 5000 Euclid Ave., in Cleveland, Ohio.
The Agora is a multipurpose venue featuring a main theater with a seating capacity of approximately 2,000 and an intimate 500-seat ballroom for smaller events. Hosting concerts, theater productions and comedy shows from stars like George Carlin, notable acts like David Bowie, Suki Waterhouse, GWAR, girl in red and more have performed at the venue.
