Historic Elitch Theatre
This restored theatre survives at the original Elitch Gardens site in West Highland. Its auditorium is best experienced through a scheduled performance or tour, while the historic exterior can anchor a short stop.
The theatre preserves the cultural side of the old gardens, which offered live performance alongside its rides and grounds. Opened in 1890, it became a summer stock venue and showed early films in Colorado. Its presence beside the carousel pavilion makes the original park easier to picture.
What to look for
The historic theatre building remains on the original Elitch Gardens grounds.
Restoration returned live performances to the auditorium.
The former carousel pavilion stands nearby as another surviving park structure.
Useful to know
Consult the theatre's event calendar before planning to see the auditorium interior.
Combine the theatre exterior with the adjacent carousel pavilion for a short history stop.
