“Ford Amphitheater” will be the most luxurious amphitheater in the Nation

Ten-year term struck between Notes Live, Inc. dba Venu Holding Corporation, and Ford

CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fresh Vine Wine Inc. (NYSE American: VINE) (“Fresh Vine”) today announced that its merger partner live entertainment and hospitality company formally Notes Live, Inc. dba Venu Holding Corporation (“VENU”) struck a ten-year naming rights term with Colorado Ford Dealers to the new outdoor amphitheater in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

On June 4, 2024 — Ford (NYSE: F) has acquired the naming rights to the ultra-lux outdoor music venue coming to Colorado Springs. The highly anticipated music haven owned by live entertainment and hospitality company formally Notes Live, Inc. dba Venu Holding Corporation (“Venu”), is set for its Grand Opening Weekend August 9th through August 11th, 2024.

Formerly known as The Sunset, Ford Amphitheater will be operated by Venu and leading concert promoter, AEG Presents. AEG, also known as Anschutz Entertainment Group, is the second largest entertainment company worldwide. The ten-year naming rights agreement underscores Ford’s long-term commitment to Venu and its association with the most luxurious venue ever built.

The agreement, powered by local Colorado Ford dealerships, includes official venue naming rights, premium venue signage, and other supreme brand activations. Between the prime location on the I-25 freeway and concertgoers visiting the $90-million-dollar, 8,000 capacity (including 92 VIP luxury fire pit suites) venue, Ford Amphitheater is set to showcase the powerhouse brand to over 100 million combined organic and non-organic impressions annually.

“A world-class amphitheater deserves a world-class name, and no name is more iconic than Ford,” said Venu Chairman and CEO, JW Roth. “They’re built ‘Ford Proud’, as the slogan goes, and we are proud to showcase one of the great American brands right at the base of America’s mountain, Pikes Peak.”

At a press conference today announcing the news, Roth added while standing in front of the Ford Amphitheater’s view of the Rocky Mountains, “We are all just thrilled with this landmark ten-year, multi-million-dollar, agreement and look forward to opening the gates to Ford Amphitheater in 66 days.”

“Your local Ford stores are proud to be an integral part of the community we serve,” said Kevin Shaughnessy, President and CEO of Phil Long Dealerships. “From college athletics to professional sports and all the activities and associations that matter most, your local Ford stores are honored to be woven into the fabric that brings us all together. We are excited to support the all-new Ford Amphitheater and look forward to many unforgettable moments under the Colorado sky.”

After breaking ground in July 2023, Ford Amphitheater is set for a sold out grand opening weekend on August 9th, 10th, and 11th, 2024. Kicking things off in style will be none other than three-time GRAMMY winner Ryan Tedder and his GRAMMY-nominated band, OneRepublic, followed by a summer line up featuring national touring acts like Beach Boys, Lauren Daigle, Dierks Bentley, Pentatonix, John Fogerty, and Robert Plant + Alison Krauss.
