Oak Mountain Amphitheatre, Outdoor amphitheater in Pelham, United States

Oak Mountain Amphitheatre was an outdoor amphitheater in Pelham, Alabama, a few miles south of Birmingham. It had three tiers of reserved seating and no general admission area, with a capacity of 10,000. The stage faced the slope so that all seats looked toward the performance area. It closed after the 2024 season and was demolished in May 2025.

Oak Mountain Amphitheatre opened in 1986 in Pelham, Alabama, and was owned by Live Nation. It closed at the end of the 2024 concert season, with Post Malone giving the final concert, and Live Nation demolished the venue in May 2025. The City of Pelham bought the site in 2025 to develop an arts and entertainment district, as Live Nation shifted Birmingham shows to the new Coca-Cola Amphitheatre.

Oak Mountain Amphitheatre draws crowds from across Alabama for concerts covering country, rock, and pop, making it a regular meeting point for music fans in the region. The setting among the hills gives each show a feeling that indoor arenas simply cannot offer.

Only cashless payments are accepted and bags must be clear, so it is worth planning ahead before arriving. Accessible seating is available, and since weather can change quickly in the hills, checking conditions before the event is a sensible habit.

Oak Mountain Amphitheatre was unusual among large US venues for having three tiers of reserved seating and no general admission area at all. Phish played the venue five times between 1994 and 2021, and John Mayer recorded his September 12, 2002 show there as the CD/DVD Any Given Thursday.
