BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — The Gene Harris Bandshell is back and ready to host community events.
The Bandshell was badly damaged back in 2018 due to a fire. On Thursday, city officials held a dedication ceremony to celebrate the refurbished new bandshell.
“The Gene Harris Bandshell is an important piece of Boise history and I’m so pleased with the upgrades to the building and performance stage that not only make it a world-class venue, but an accessible one for everyone who visits,” said Lauren McLean, Boise mayor. “This gathering place, located right in the heart of Boise, is an incredible community asset and we look forward to the return of safe events and entertainment this summer.”
The bandshell has new restrooms and drinking fountains, new stage decking, and improvements to audio and visual equipment for performances.
Local musician Curtis Stigers helped dedicate the bandshell. Interested in reserving? You can call 208-608-7600.
