Sandia Casino Amphitheater, The Pueblo of Sandia

Project Value: $3.7M
Market: Entertainment; Specialty - Tribal

The Pueblo of Sandia wanted to complement their 210,000 SF casino with an enhanced outdoor amphitheater to draw top entertainers, providing a truly all-inclusive and luxurious experience for their visitors. Their first amphitheater, which had completed construction just seven months before, proved challenging and inefficient in hosting events. Sandia was spending more money making accommodations for the events, including upgrading the amphitheater’s power capability, as well as renting stage cover and televisions for each performance. The Pueblo of Sandia determined that demolishing the structure and starting from scratch would be the most cost-effective approach.
