White River Amphitheatre
White River Amphitheatre is the Pacific Northwest's largest outdoor concert venue, located in Auburn with a current capacity of 16,000. Originally opened in 2003 with hometown heroes Heart christening the venue, this premier amphitheater sits on the Auburn-Enumclaw Road and offers stunning views of Mount Rainier on clear days. Operated by Live Nation, the venue has hosted world-class acts including Jimmy Buffett, Iron Maiden, Sting, and countless touring artists during its summer concert season. The venue was originally designed for 20,000 but was reduced to its current capacity in 2015 to improve the concert experience. Located about 45 minutes southeast of Seattle, White River Amphitheatre serves as the region's primary destination for major outdoor concerts and festivals, featuring both covered seating and spacious lawn areas for a variety of concert-going experiences.
