Citizens on Wednesday announced its second major sponsorship of a live entertainment venue in the Pittsburgh region so far this year, partnering with the renamed Roxian Theatre presented by Citizens.
The McKees Rocks facility has been a cornerstone of the Pittsburgh region’s live music culture since it opened in 1929, initially showcasing vaudeville acts. A major restoration of the 1,400 seat facility was completed in 2019. It is owned by Live Nation.
“It’s a partnership and an investment,” said Mark Rendulic, Citizens Pittsburgh market president.
Citizens did not disclose financial terms.
“What I would say is this is a continuation of the focus on Pittsburgh, which we view as a crucial market,” Rendulic said.
