New Haven, CT’s 9,700 capacity outdoor venue Westville Music Bowl, a former tennis stadium located on Yale University’s athletic campus, opened in 2021. Now, as its third season winds down, they’ve announced that AEG Presents company The Bowery Presents will be booking it starting in 2024, in partnership with Premier Concerts / Manic Presents. Keith Mahler, president of Premier Concerts / Manic Presents / Lovely Day Presents, says, “Mark Nussbaum and I have been developing artists from 100-cap spaces through a growing network of Connecticut venues. That network placed us firmly at the forefront of the return of live music in 2021, which gave us a glimpse into what we can do at scale. We are very excited to have The Bowery Presents partner with us on our next chapter promoting shows at Westville Music Bowl – you can expect big things from this collective powerhouse team.”
John Moore, founder of The Bowery Presents, and his partner Jim Glancy say, “Bowery has a long history of producing shows from intimate clubs to the largest venues – many of which are unique outdoor locations loved by artists and fans alike. Westville Music Bowl is renowned in New England as one of those marquee outdoor venues, and we are proud to join our partners at Premier Concerts / Manic Presents in booking this unique space.”
