The music venue on Newport's riverfont is completed.
Now the only thing left to add for PromoWest Pavilion at Ovation is a band and an audience.
The first shows will be in September, said Scott Stienecker, CEO of Columbus-based PromoWest, which developed and will manage the music venue.
PromoWest will announce the first 10 acts at 7 a.m. Friday. The company has so far booked 24 acts for the fall, Stienecker said.
"It’s a wide variety, country rock, rap, and urban, and jam band, a little bit of everything and really strong names," Stienecker told The Enquirer.
The indoor/outdoor venue seats 2,800 indoors and 7,000 outdoors. The owners will open their doors to the media on Thursday to show off the new concert hall.
It is one of two new music venues on the riverfront in the Cincinnati region.
The other across the river is the Andrew J. Brady ICON Music Center right by Paul Brown Stadium. The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra owns and operates that venue, which will also start hosting shows in September. The CSO has already announced shows for the fall and into 2022.
