Historical Notes

The 1952 Democratic National Convention was the fifth convention to be held at the Amphitheatre, and it was also the largest, with over 50,000 people in attendance. However, after the convention, the Amphitheatre was deemed too old and too small to continue hosting major events, and it was eventually demolished in 1999.
