The 19,000-capacity Mystic Lake Amphitheater is well underway next to Shakopee’s Canterbury Park, with planned completion by next summer. The venue, operated by Live Nation Entertainment, will host a slate of live regional, national, and international musicians during the warmer months, supplying fans with top-notch acoustics and clear sightlines. Additionally, the amphitheater will host private events in its covered lower bowl and large outdoor plaza, the latter providing room to gather with 360-degree views of the Minnesota River Valley. Luxury suites and VIP boxes also are available during performances.
“Minnesota has long been a powerhouse music market, and Mystic Lake Amphitheater will bring even more world-class performances to music fans across the region,” says Josh Lacey, Minnesota market president at Live Nation Entertainment, in a prepared statement. “This one-of-a-kind venue blends the energy of live performance with the natural beauty of Minnesota, creating a new summer tradition for fans and artists.”
The venue will deliver an estimated $138 million in annual economic impact to the regional economy and create more than 700 jobs.
