Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre Renamed To Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre
Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre... how do you feel about the name?
Tons of fans took to Facebook and majority said they'll always remember it as World Music Theater. Could this be the last time the venue is renamed? Probably not.
"It will always by the World Music Theatre to me!!" - Tracy B.
"I still call it World Music Theater. Maybe just call it Tinley Park and not change the name all the time!" - Deborah M.
"Graduated HS on that stage! It'll always be The World to anyone who grew up going there." - Daryl L.
Since opening in 1990, there have been 6 different name changes to the venue.
"The Amphitheatre, which has a capacity of 28,000, was previously known as the World Music Theatre (1990-1995), New World Music Theatre (1995-2001), Tweeter Center (2001-2006), and First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre (2006-2015)." [wgntv]
