About Meijer Gardens’ Amphitheater
The 1900-seat amphitheater is general admission. Concertgoers are welcome to bring a blanket or low-rise chair to sit on. Low-rise chairs are defined as 12” maximum from ground to front of seat bottom and 32” maximum to top of chair back in highest position. These rules are strictly enforced. No other chairs will be permitted in the venue. A limited number of standard-height chairs will be available to rent for $10 (located in designated area-may not be removed) on a first-come, first-served basis. All concerts take place rain or shine (weather delays possible). A selection of sandwiches, snacks, water, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are available at the concessions counter. All beverages purchased here must be consumed inside the amphitheater gates. Concertgoers are also welcomed to bring their own food, bottled water and non-alcoholic beverages. No glass or refillable containers are allowed. All beverages must be in their original sealed containers; any liquids in unsealed containers must be discarded at the gate before entering.
The amphitheater is currently being expanded and upgraded. The work is taking place over two years. Work on Phase One will conclude for the presentation of the 2018 season and then resume to be fully ready for the 2019 season. While maintaining the intimacy of the venue, the project will increase the sponsor seating area, add new support areas for visiting artists, add a new support and concessions building (ready by the 2019 season) and increases the size of the general seating area. Consistent with previous years, 1,900 general admission tickets will be available for sale during the 2018 season.

About Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park
One of the world’s most significant botanic and sculpture experiences, Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park serves over 750,000 visitors annually and was recently named the 20th most visited museum in the United States by The Art Newspaper. The 158-acre grounds feature Michigan’s largest tropical conservatory; one of the largest children’s gardens in the country; arid and Victorian gardens with bronze sculptures by Degas and Rodin; a carnivorous plant house; outdoor gardens; and a 1,900-seat outdoor amphitheater, featuring an eclectic mix of world-renowned musicians every summer.

Created by renowned designer Hoichi Kurisu, the garden features sculpture by Masayuki Koorida, Anish Kapoor, Zhang Huan and Guiseppe Penone, among others.
