The Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre (originally Riverport Amphitheatre and formerly the UMB Bank Pavilion and Verizon Wireless Amphitheater) is an outdoor concertvenue in Maryland Heights, Missouri, near St. Louis.
History[edit]
The venue was built for approximately $12 million, and opened on June 14, 1991, with a performance by Steve Winwood.[2]
Shortly after opening, the amphitheater became the site of the infamous Riverport Riot, July 2, 1991, during a Guns N' Roses concert, during their Use Your Illusion Tour.[3]
In 1998, the local promoter Contemporary Group, who built the amphitheater, was acquired by SFX.[4] SFX corporate successor Live Nation Entertainment continues to own and operate the venue.
In 2002, UMB Bank acquired the naming rights to the venue for five years.[5] Verizon Wireless then purchased the naming rights in November 2006.[6]
Venue owner Live Nation announced December 17, 2014, that they had signed a multiyear agreement with Hollywood Casino in Maryland Heights, which is owned and operated by Penn National Gaming, to be the amphitheater's title sponsor.[7] The length of the agreement was not disclosed.[8] Even with naming rights changes, everyone in the St. Louis Area calls it by its real name 'Riverport'.
Notable events[edit]
On June 9, 2000, the bands REO Speedwagon and Styxperformed at the venue together and released Arch Allies Live at Riverport and releasing 2 single-disc versions for Styx and one for REO.
Sting performed during his Symphonicities Tour on June 23, 2010, along with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
On July 23, 2010, Kings of Leon abruptly ended their set, after only three songs, allegedly being pelted with feces by pigeons while onstage. The band gave fans their money back and later announced a makeup show. The new date was scheduled to be on September 25, 2010. Tickets were free for those who attended their last show and were $10.00 for other fans planning on attending.[9]
The amphitheatre has played host to many music festivals, including 60's Summer Spectacular, All That! Music and More Festival, Anger Management Tour, Crüe Fest, Crüe Fest 2, Family Values Tour, Farm Aid, H.O.R.D.E. Festival, Honda Civic Tour, Lilith Fair, Lollapalooza, Mayhem Festival, Ozzfest, Pointfest, Projekt Revolution, Uproar Festival and Vans Warped Tour.

Perfect view of stage for a great price!

If you want to see an amazing artist but have a budget the lawn seats are for you. Get there early and you can get close to the front so the view is even better! Definitely will be coming back! The people on the lawn are so much fun!
Bring something to sit on

The views from the lawn are overall pretty good. The video screens on the pavilion help to see things. You cannot bring in lawn chairs so you have to rent. Blankets are allowed so that's what I would suggest. We sat toward the side of the lawn because it was closer. The middle of the lawn tends to fill up faster.
$7.00 broken, rusty chairs!
