Over an 18-year phased project schedule, the facility has been completely rebuilt to meet the latest musical and performance artists criteria for media, sound, and entertainment. The nearly 100-year-old facility was a WPA project in the 1930s that hosted a single seasonal event at its onset, to now a dynamic venue that draws top entertainers and hosts tens of thousands of concertgoers each season. Using many materials found on-site, the Bowl stage, pavilion, and support structures have been rebuilt, reimagined, or built new during the winter months, and off-season, over nearly two decades.
