A new 14,000-seat outdoor music venue in Southern California, the project features a stepped seating bowl that transition seamlessly to the landscaped site.

The stage is covered by a striking hyperbolic paraboloid-shaped, lattice-framed canopy. WPe worked with the architects to devise a framing plan that maximized the shell nature of the frame to span considerable distances with shippable members and bolted connections. WPe created parametric models to rationalize the canopy shape and optimize the framing grid.

Various additional buildings are spread across the site including entry structures, club spaces, concession stands, and back of house structures.
