Fjæreheia is a former quarry where a characteristic red granite was mined. Since 1993 Fjæreheia has been a theatre for both the plays of Ibsen and modern rock musicals.

Agder Theatre bought the quarry in 1995, and in the summer of 1999 built a new amphitheatre with 1000 seats. The quarry is a unique outdoors arena with good acoustics, and lies around 2 km from Fjære church.

Since opening in 1999 there have been many different types of arrangement at Fjæreheia. There have been everything from musicals such as Jesus Christ Superstar to film presentations and readings of the poem "Terje Vigen" and rock concerts from acts such as A-ha, Vamp and Bjørn Eidsvåg.
