Think of how those look. You've got all the fire pits. You've got on stage heating. You know, you're going to be about 30 degrees or so warmer than it is outside. So if it's 40 degrees and snowing outside or whatever it is, you're gonna be 70 degrees, 70 degrees inside, super comfortable concert environment," Roth said.Watch previous coverage: NSU and Regent Bank Amphitheater partner to give students real-world experience NSU and Regent Bank Amphitheater partner to give students real-world experienceBetween the December opening and the start of the full touring season, Roth said the venue has a packed schedule planned.
