San Marcos based EVO Entertainment just announced they are going to construct a 15,000 seat amphitheater in the northeast part of San Antonio.

The amphitheater will be an addition to The Ranch at Old Wiederstein project in Schertz. The amphitheater will be called EVO Live and will sit behind the entertainment complex which is currently under construction.

The company stated that the new amphitheater will feature covered and uncovered seating for up to 15,000 people as well as a variety of food and beverage options.

The venue will attract top world talent that have skipped the San Antonio area because of the lack of a proper venue.

“Music & live entertainment has been a passion of mine for my entire life.” said EVO Entertainment Group CEO, Mitch Roberts. “Something I’ve dreamt of incorporating into the EVO vision from the start.”

With any project of this nature, traffic and noise are going to be a concern. With that being said, being early to the market puts the project in a great position with freedom to collaborate with the City and developer to make sure we execute carefully, and responsibly for both residents and future tenants to the development,” Roberts said.

The state of the art sound and project engineers will assure that the surrounding neighborhoods will not be impacted by the sound of the new facility to come in January of 2019.
