Venue Details:

Gov’t Mule kicked things off with the outdoor music venue, formerly the CT Tennis Center, with socially distanced outdoor concerts that allowed audiences of up to 4,000 within the 10,000 seat outdoor arena. Changing guidelines are expected to allow for bigger crowds later this year, for an artist lineup that continues with Umphrey’s McGee, Twiddle, Dinosaur Jr., Greensky Bluegrass, Lake Street Dive, Tedeschi Trucks, Billy Strings, Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, Dirty Heads and Sublime with Rome, among others. The venue is the first to take advantage of d&b audiotechnik’s re-manufactured/certified pre-owned (CPO) program with its J-Series loudspeaker system, with the re-used components part of a broader green focus that includes solar panels collecting energy during the day and a commitment to recycling.
