Murphy Arts District
El Dorado Festivals & Events has been working to create a new Arts & Entertainment District – the Murphy Arts District. Their goal is to provide creative outlets to explore music, dance, theater, art, and food in fun and immersive ways that hold true to the people and culture of El Dorado.
The outdoor Amphitheater hosts large festivals and events for over 7,000 people with market pavilions for seasonal farmers markets and the largest park in the city. There’s also an outdoor destination playscape and splash pad for children and families to enjoy outdoor activities with programming that is both entertaining and enriching. Renovations to the Griffin converted this historic structure into a restaurant and 2,500-plus seat entertainment venue.
