Will Bridgeport amphitheater be able to host crowded concerts? FacebookTwitterEmail The newly named Hartford Healthcare Amphitheater, currently under construction in Bridgeport.Ned Gerard / Hearst Connecticut Media BRIDGEPORT — Picture a warm summer evening with thousands of music lovers packing the new amphitheater to enjoy their favorite musical act. They sing along, cheer, dance, sip cold local beer and munch on concessions from area vendors. That scene, despite the year-old global coronavirus pandemic, is what the men behind Bridgeport’s 5,700-seat outdoor concert venue are envisioning as they ready to finally open after missing the 2019 and 2020 seasons. But is it realistic? “It’s not about us. It’s about the entertainer,” Saffan said Thursday. “Live Nation will book entertainers based on a certain level of income they can expect.” And that talent will not tour without full capacity crowds, Saffan said.
