Gaelic College Performance Centre is located
on the campus of Gaelic
College of Celtic Arts and Crafts. The campus is nestled in
the hills overlooking beautiful St. Ann's Bay, the 350-acre property
is steeped in the history of Scottish migration to this area.
The Performance Centre, built in 1978, is a unique
open-air facility that offers a beautiful view from the hillside
overlooking the bay. Bench type seating on the hillside provides
seating for 450 people and a large grassy area surrounding it increases
capacity for concerts to over 2000.
The Amphitheatre is able to support a large variety
of performances including amplified song, dance, theater and spoken
word. It is well equipped to provide sound and lighting for each
of these performances. The stage structure also provides an excellent
site for crafts sales, bazaars, outdoor conferences and similar
events.
Artec provided Design and Planning services covering
performance venue design for this open-air venue at the Gaelic
College Performance Centre.
