About Sweetland Amphitheatre: What was formerly the city park and pool, Sweetland Amphitheatre was built on its history as a spot for friends and families to gather and the home of LaGrange’s cherished Sweet Land of Liberty Parade. Established in 1935 as the City Park or Municipal Park, it became the anticipated summer “hangout” back in the day, with the addition of a swimming pool. Years later, a baseball field was incorporated into the park with assistance from the Callaway Foundation.
