New Amphitheater in Colorado Springs announces name change
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) - The new Amphitheater being built in north Colorado Springs, formerly called Sunset Amphitheater, has changed its name.
On Facebook, the amphitheater is now titled "Ford Amphitheater."
The name change comes after Notes Live CEO and Founder JW Roth tells KRDO13 that "a big national company" bought the naming rights to the amphitheater in late May.
The grand opening of the amphitheater will take place Friday, Aug. 9 with a headline concert from One Republic. The band will perform on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Roth says the venue is not only on track with its construction timeline, but construction is actually ahead of schedule. The CEO says construction should be complete by mid-July.
