Coca-Cola Amphitheater brings boost to Birmingham businesses
Less than a week after the Coca-Cola Amphitheater opened, business owners say they’re already seeing a boost in sales. Due to limited parking near the amphitheater, the Birmingham Jefferson Civic Complex offers concert-goers the option to park near Protective Stadium. The free Jam Tram shuttle to the venue brings more foot traffic to the uptown area. Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit will close out a packed first week with a performance on Saturday, June 2, at 9 p.m. at the Amphitheaters. For more information, visit the venue’s website.

Jaliyah Bryant, one of the owners of K & J’s Elegant Pastries, said they’ve definitely seen more customers stopping by.
“Usually we have like kind of steady throughout the day, but usually the line has been like to the door,” she said. “The store has been packed all day nonstop.”
With the extra customers, Bryant said they’ve had to make more product to keep up.
“We stock the trays at least like 12 times and have had to refill each tray 12 times all day,” she said. “So, it’s been really busy, but it’s been really good for us.”
