About

Who we Are:

Locally grown, internationally known. Headliners Music Hall is THE premiere live entertainment venue in Louisville, Kentucky. Headliners brings the best local, national, and international acts to their historic stage, with fantastic sound and a fun atmosphere. Between our old-school charm, great acoustics, and an amazing lineup of talent, you would be hard-pressed to find a better music venue in the region.

The building where Headliners resides was originally used as a cafeteria for the bottling facility that surrounded it. During prohibition, the building was used as a rehearsal hall for the big bands that played the Seelbach and Brown hotels on the weekends.

During this time, the public was allowed to watch the bands practice while drinking “medicinal” bourbon that was allegedly bottled on the property.

The decorative murals that adorn our walls date back to 1939, and were commissioned by the National Distillers Product Corporation. The initials NDPC are visible on some of the murals.

With our old-school charm, great acoustics, and amazing parade of talent, you would be hard-pressed to find a better music venue in Louisville.
