Mishawaka Amphitheatre

The Mishawaka Amphitheatre is a single stage 1000 person outdoor concert venue located approximately 25 mi (40 km) northwest of Fort Collins, Colorado, on Colorado State Highway 14. It is on the banks of the Poudre River. The restaurant is open year-round and the amphitheatre is open from May to September.

The Mishawaka celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2016 and is currently owned by Dani Grant, who bought it in 2010 from Robin Jones. Jones bought it in 1991 "to keep it from being torn down and turned into a parking lot," but was forced to sell it after being caught with 280 lb (130 kg) of marijuana. Nevertheless, Jones wanted to sell the venue to "someone who would keep it a musical amphitheatre." Before taking ownership of the amphitheatre, Grant ran an artist non-profit that worked to bring musicians to places like Mishawaka. After buying the property Grant worked on fixing up the place, she updated the electrical system, renovated the outdoor deck, and upgraded the kitchen.
