Bluestem Amphitheater
[1] In 2009, the $15 million Bluestem Center for the Arts opened after a collaboration from the City of Moorhead, Fargo School District, and the State of Minnesota.[1] The original non-profit was no longer able to make payments and the Fargo School District took over the amphitheater and the approximately $5 million worth of debt.[2] Though the center has not yet produced a profit, they seem to be on-track as of 2015, as seasonal attendance and billings have increased.[3] In 2014, the amphitheater set a new attendance record of 3,200 spectators for a concert featuring the Goo Goo Dolls [4] 2023 events include visiting performances by Chicago as well as Willie Nelson and Family.[5] The amphitheater is used and managed by the Trollwood Performing Arts School as their main home.
