Events Under the Stars
Designed to host the best concerts in Texas, it’s easy to see how The Cynthia Wood Mitchell Pavilion pulls in impressive concert lineups year after year. Why would you see your favorite band at an outdated convention center when you could enjoy watching them at one of the “Top 10 Outdoor Amphitheaters in the World,” according to Pollstar magazine?
Planning your next getaway to revolve around your dream concert doesn’t have to mean sacrificing vacation time and local flavor. Leave the parking garages and concert traffic behind. The Pavilion is located in the heart of The Woodlands, meaning you can stroll along the Waterway or through the beautiful Town Center and enjoy a fantastic dinner at one of the many nearby chef-inspired restaurants before easily continuing your walk—or free trolley ride—to catch your show. Take your next vacation somewhere that encourages you to connect with your senses. Feel the sunlight trickling through the tree canopy as you walk to dinner, enjoy the enveloping flavors and aromas of a dish you’ve never tried, and hear your favorite music live in The Woodlands.
