“The Sunset at El Paso represents a true collaboration between the public and private sectors, and we’re honoured to support the city’s forward-thinking leadership, beginning with mayor [Oscar] Leeser.” 

The venue will have a 12,500 capacity with audiovisual capabilities, as well as diverse food and drink options. 

It will also comprise a range of seating choices, including fire pit suites, mid and lower-bowl sections, and a landscaped hydrochill grass berm. 

An exclusive Owner’s Club will be situated on the edge of the Sunset Amphitheater. 

Projected to generate more than $5.4bn in economic impact for El Paso, the Sunset Amphitheater is expected to support over 2,000 direct and indirect jobs.

This is expected to open on 9 August 2024.
