Lowell Memorial Auditorium, War memorial and concert venue in downtown Lowell, United States.
The Lowell Memorial Auditorium is a multipurpose hall in downtown Lowell with a large theater space seating around 2,800 people. The interior features marble columns and carved stone walls engraved with military names and battle honors.
The building was designed in 1922 by architects Blackall, Clapp, and Whittemore and stands as a memorial to veterans. Names of generals and battles are engraved on its exterior as a permanent tribute to those who died.
The hall hosts boxing tournaments, Broadway shows, concerts, and theatrical productions that draw audiences from across New England. These events reflect how the community gathers here for entertainment and shared cultural moments.
The main floor can be reconfigured for different events, supporting theater seating, round tables for gatherings, or exhibition booths. The space adapts to whatever the event requires, so layout changes between different types of programs.
Workers discovered a Civil War flag in the basement in 2014 that once belonged to Lieutenant Solon Perkins. This rare find connects the building directly to local military history and the soldiers from the area.
