A Legacy of Entertainment & Community

Since 1882

For over a century, the Junction City Opera House has been a place where world-class talent meets local artistry. Built by the community in 1882, our mission has always been to showcase exceptional performances from across the country while providing a stage for our own local stars to shine.

More than 100 years later, our commitment to the arts remains as strong as ever.

Join us as we continue to celebrate the magic of live performance—where history, talent, and community come together!
