Cushing Memorial Amphitheatre, Open-air theatre in Mount Tamalpais State Park, United States.
The Sidney B. Cushing Memorial Amphitheatre stands 2,000 feet above sea level, surrounded by natural rock formations and offering views of the San Francisco Bay.
The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed the stone amphitheatre in 1933 using serpentine rocks, dedicating it to businessman Sidney B. Cushing of the Mount Tamalpais Railway.
Each spring, the Mountain Play Association presents theatrical productions at the amphitheatre, maintaining a tradition that began in 1913.
The 4,000-seat venue provides accessibility options for visitors with disabilities and features stone seating arrangements across multiple levels.
The amphitheatre hosted the Fantasy Fair and Magic Mountain Music Festival in 1967, marking the first outdoor rock festival during the Summer of Love.
