Notes Live has inked a deal with AEG Presents for the forthcoming outdoor music coliseum Sunset Amphitheater in Colorado Springs.
Music venue and hospitality company Notes Live has inked a deal with entertainment presenter AEG Presents for the forthcoming $55,000,000 outdoor music coliseum Sunset Amphitheater in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Under the terms of the agreement, the Sunset will present roughly 40 concerts every year in an 8,000-person state-of-the-art open-air theater in the entertainment-rich Polaris Pointe development.
In a true owner-operator partnership, AEG Presents will exclusively book the acts and run day-to-day operations, while Notes Live will continue to own the venue. The agreement is a ten-year term, with construction on the Sunset underway and scheduled to open in 2024.
“I can’t express the magnitude of our excitement as we embark on this incredible journey alongside AEG Presents. This partnership not only solidifies and validates our business model but also represents a truly exceptional alliance. Anytime you can do business with an Anschutz company, it’s an honor,” says Notes Live CEO JW Roth.
“We are looking forward to bringing World Class entertainment to Colorado Springs with the addition of the Sunset Amphitheater and our new partnership with JW Roth and his team at Notes Live. This entertainment destination will be a crown jewel in the community for artists and fans to enjoy for years to come,” adds Brent Fedrizzi, Co-President & COO of AEG Presents Rocky Mountains.
Named last fall in Billboard’s Venues to Watch list, the Sunset will host some of the most prominent touring acts in the country on the same campus as Notes Live’s current mid-size music venue, Boot Barn Hall. Designed by industry-renowned architects, the Sunset will offer an unparalleled view of the sun setting over Pikes Peak behind the stage as each concert begins.
Amenities include 92 VIP luxury firepit suites, fine dining seafood and chophouse, with a rooftop bar carrying over 150 of the world’s rarest bourbons. Notes Live has plans to begin construction in a half-dozen markets by the end of 2023 or early 2024, with expansions to six additional markets planned over the next five years.
In 2022, Notes Live announced new music and entertainment complexes in the emerging markets of Colorado Springs, CO, Gainesville, GA, and Murfreesboro, TN. The company identifies markets in regions with growing populations that need more high-quality music and entertainment venues.
