Coney Island To Open A New Outdoor Performance Venue In July

The Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk will have its grand opening in July 2016 bringing New York City a new outdoor live entertainment venue.  The 5,000-seat covered open-air venue — the first of its kind in the Tri-State area — will host a mix of concerts, family shows, sports, comedy, and multicultural events, and become the new permanent home of the free Seaside Summer Concert Series.

The Amphitheater is located on Coney Island’s famed boardwalk and incorporates the Childs Building, built in 1923 as one of the first large-format stand-alone restaurants in the country. The building is now designated as a New York City Landmark and is currently undergoing a full restoration after suffering decades of neglect. The stage, which will be housed inside of the Childs Building with 50-foot tall doors opening to the Amphitheater during the summer, will also have the ability to serve the interior of the building during the winter months.

“Our vision for Coney Island is a neighborhood that preserves the past while building for the future, and that balances a vibrant amusement district with a growing residential community,” said NYCEDC President Maria Torres-Springer. “The Amphitheater is ‎a key component of our investment in the neighborhood, and will soon be home to both world class concerts and community events.‎ We’re excited to be welcoming LiveNation, Legends and Brooklyn Sports and Entertainment to the project, and look forward to working with them and iStar to bring this exciting new space to the Coney Island community.”

Live Nation, the world’s leading live entertainment company, will hold a long-term lease to operate the Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk, including booking and promoting a full summer season of live music, comedy and family entertainment. In addition, Legends, provider of award-winning hospitality, will provide hospitality services to the new venue.

“America’s Playground is getting ready to welcome its greatest attraction yet!” said Eric Adams, Brooklyn Borough President. “From its very first performance this summer, the Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk will be a must-visit destination for fun-seekers in search of top-flight entertainment from near and far. I am excited that I will get to serve as host of the Seaside Summer Concert Series at this new and exciting venue, which will have a positive impact on the holistic growth of the Coney Island community for years to come.”

The Amphitheater is part of a series of investments made by the City of New York in the past decade to revitalize the amusement district and improve infrastructure to support the growth of the Coney Island neighborhood. Since 2009, the City has also helped renovate five of the six designated NYC Landmarks in Coney Island through targeted City and private investments—including the Cyclone Roller Coaster, the Parachute Jump, the Wonder Wheel, the Coney Island museum, and through this project the Child’s Restaurant Building. The De Blasio Administration has also dedicated over $180 million toward infrastructure investments—including sewer upgrades and street reconstruction—to facilitate new development and serve the local neighborhood.
