A crowd fills in the seats at an outdoor theatre.

Jenny Wiley Theatre

During the summer months, the outdoor Jenny Wiley Amphitheatre in Prestonsburg, located within the picturesque Jenny Wiley State Resort Park, comes alive with performances under the stars. From June to August, audiences gather to experience the magic of live theater against the stunning backdrop of Kentucky’s natural beauty. Meanwhile, the indoor Mainstage Theatre in downtown Pikeville offers an intimate, year-round venue for high-quality performances that continue to captivate audiences of all ages.


A stop at the Jenny Wiley Theatre offers more than just entertainment—it’s a chance to immerse yourself in the arts while exploring the rich musical and cultural history of Kentucky. As a proud part of the Kentucky Music Trail, the Jenny Wiley Theatre connects the region’s deep roots in storytelling and performance with the future of artistic expression.
