The Woodlands
Amphitheater prior to closing out the 2008 season was struck by Hurricane Ike causing the concert hall to be closed due to the great damage. Since then it has been renovated and reopened to increase their white fabric covered reserved seating capacity to nearly 6,500, including several additional boxes. The overall capacity of the venue remains about the same at 16,500 including a lawn capacity of about 10,000.
