Originally named Lakewood Amphitheatre after opening in 1989, the amphitheater has since changed names several times and has now reverted back to it’s original title. Known for a long time as the Coca-Cola Lakewood Amphitheatre, it briefly took up its original name again in 2000. Then in 2001, the venue became known as HiFi Buys Amphitheatre. It wasn’t until 2008 that the venue again changed its name back to Lakewood Amphitheatre, at which point a logo not dissimilar to the one used prior to becoming the HiFi Buys Amphitheatre was used. In May 2009, Aaron’s stepped in with a naming-rights agreement and between 2009-2015 the venue carried the title of Aaron’s Amphitheatre at Lakewood, before becoming it’s classic name of Lakewood Amphitheatre once again in 2016. Since November 2017 it got a new sponsor and is known as Cellairis Amphitheatre at Lakewood.
