The [Coney Island Amphitheater](http://www.sheepsheadbites.com/2016/02/coney-islands-long-awaited-amphitheater-open-july/?ref=bklyner.com) hasn’t even been built and already the venue has some big acts scheduled to perform there this summer.

Tickets for the open-air entertainment space are already on sale on the [Amphitheater’s website](http://coneyislandlive.com/?ref=bklyner.com). The listings show that performers like Ziggy Marley, Sting, Peter Gabriel, Boston, and Don Henley are showing up for the theater’s first summer in Coney Island. The Beach Boys, who [visited Brooklyn’s newly renovated Kings Theatre](http://www.sheepsheadbites.com/2016/02/the-beach-boys-come-to-kings-theatre-sponsored/?ref=bklyner.com) earlier this year, will play at the Amphitheater on the Fourth of July.

Construction crews are rushing to have the theater [ready by late June](http://www.sheepsheadbites.com/2016/02/coney-islands-long-awaited-amphitheater-open-july/?ref=bklyner.com). The first show, headlined by Ziggy Marley, is scheduled for June 25.

The 5,000-seat amphitheater, backed by a $60 million investment by the city, involves the rehabilitation of the landmarked Childs Restaurant. When it’s completed, the building will have 50-foot-tall doors that open the stage to an open-air seating area. The doors can be closed when the weather is less favorable to outdoor entertainment, allowing the theater to host shows year-round.

Among the other acts scheduled to visit the new space this summer: Impractical Jokers, the team behind the [prank/improv show ](http://www.trutv.com/shows/impractical-jokers/index.html?link=paidsearch:Google:Always%5FOn%5FImpractical%5FJokers:Brand%5FNetwork&ref=bklyner.com)of the same name on truTV, Slightly Stoopid, the California-based ska-punk band, Jane’s Addiction, and Hollywood Vampires, the rock group formed by Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp, and Joe Perry.
