Paramount Bristol
In 2021, the Paramount Center for the Arts will celebrate 90 years as a cultural landmark in the heart of historic downtown Bristol presenting live music, dance, comedy, film, theater, and family entertainment. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, its design is characteristic of Art Deco movie palaces built in the 1930s. The Paramount made its mark presenting Hollywood Blockbusters, but it presented far more than just movies. Judy Garland, legendary for her role as Dorothy in “The Wizard of Oz,” made an appearance on its stage, as did famed silver screen cowboy and music star, Gene Autry. Roy Acuff, long known as the king of country music, staged numerous concerts at the Paramount during the 1940s and ’50s. The theater is owned and operated by the Paramount Foundation for the benefit of the community and the arts. www.paramountbristol.org
