About The Gorge Amphitheatre

The Gorge Amphitheatre is an outdoor concert venue above the Columbia River in Grant County, about 150 miles east of Seattle. It holds 27,500 people across reserved seats and a lawn, and the stage is set against the river gorge. The site opened in 1986 with 3,000 seats and is now operated by Live Nation for touring acts and festivals. You can stay overnight in tent, RV or glamping sites sold separately from show tickets. The ground is rough and hilly, so plan for walking.
