Completed in 2023, Lexington’s Veterans Pavilion and Amphitheater is the culmination of years of work and fund-raising by the Lexington Veterans Memorial Committee.
The Pavilion is located at the south end of Kirkpatrick Memorial Park, with the nearest intersection being 7th & Taft Streets. It is surrounded by a pentagon-shaped paved walking path. Each corner of the pentagon features a lighted kiosk that will present tributes and information for the five branches of the military (Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard). There is also a Memorial Wall to hold engraved bricks to memorialize veterans (see how to purchase bricks below).
The Pavilion boasts ample parking and the whole complex is completely handicap accessible. The Amphitheater and seating area are sure to become a favorite entertainment spot for years to come.
