A “state-of-the-art, first-class” amphitheater with 12,500 seats is in the works at a 120-acre riverfront project called The Bend, according to developer Jimmy White.

White mentioned the planned venue during a broader update on the project, noting there will be more details revealed in the coming weeks. However, the presentation also attracted questions from members of the panel and calls for better dialogue with the board about changes.
