Iron City Bham

Iron City in Birmingham, AL, is a premier destination for live music, weddings, and dining experiences that is rooted in the rich history of the city. Originally constructed in 1929 by L.H. Pennington, the buildings that now make up Iron City have served as a cornerstone of the Southside landscape for decades. Initially a part of the city's bustling auto industry, the space has undergone extensive renovation and construction, transforming it into a modern, two-floor venue that features three concert stages, a state-of-the-art sound system, and two bars.

The revitalization of the venue is due in large part to the vision of entrepreneur Steve DeMedicis, who recognized the historic significance of the location and its potential to become a hub for entertainment and events. The design by Williams Blackstock Architects honors the heritage of the space while elevating it to new heights of modernity and sophistication. Today, Iron City stands as a testament to the ingenuity and perseverance of Birmingham's past, as well as its vibrant and thriving present.
