Stargazers Theatre and Event Center
Music lovers can agree — the dome-shaped building a short drive from downtown is the place to take in a local, regional or national act. Paula Cole, Gregory Alan Isakov, Louden Wainwright III, Royal Southern Brotherhood, Trace Bundy — all will have stepped on the stage at some point by year’s end. “Amazing talent, good acoustics, inexpensive pricing. (Owners) Cindy and John (Hooten) make it very welcoming,” one voter said. “Stargazers has super easy access and very friendly, accommodating staff,” another said. “The atmosphere gives the venue an at-home, private feel. Drinks are never watered down and are priced right.”
