Welcome to the Lamoni Coliseum

Step inside a space where history, community, and celebration come together. Opened in 1911, the Lamoni Coliseum began its life as a live playhouse and concert hall, serving as a cultural cornerstone for the Lamoni community. In 1925, the theatre was acquired by Graceland University, beginning a new chapter that continues today.

The theatre was thoughtfully remodeled in the early 1990s, bringing modern updates including new restrooms, upgraded projection, a refreshed concession area, and a welcoming box office.
