Tower Theater Philadelphia

Description

The Tower Theater Upper Darby opened in 1927, an entertainment facility designed to accommodate both movies and vaudeville acts. Following a period of decline in the early 1970s, The Tower Theater Upper Darby turned a corner when Midnight Sun Concerts (a New Jersey music promoter) promoted its first concert at the venue.

The move was a major coup for the Tower Theater Upper Darby, revealing an acoustic excellence which would put the venue on par with such legendary counterparts as New York City's Fillmore East. Word spread, and the Tower Theater Upper Darby was soon hosting stars who would then go on to take the world by storm. David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, Jackson Browne, Lou Reed, Steve Miller and Phil Collins are just a few of those featured on the Tower Theater schedule over the years.

To this day, the Tower Theater Upper Darby continues to attract some of the biggest names in entertainment to its stage. Now operating under Live Nation/ Electric Factory Concerts, the Tower Theater Upper Darby regularly welcomes acts such as George Carlin, Chris Rock, Conan O'Brien, Kelly Clarkson, Death Cab for Cutie and Radiohead.
