History of Amphitheater Gorge in George: The Amphitheater Gorge of George originally started in the 1980’s when Dr. Vince Bryan and his wife Carol bought a site for a vineyard. The breathtaking view made Vince Bryan think of arranging for concerts while serving wine. They started the Champs de Brionne music theatre. It was opened in 1985 and the first performance was by Jesse Collin Young.

The Amphitheater Gorge of George at that time picture a pastoral surrounding, with just a grassy knoll, and was devoid of running water or paved walkways. It lacked the modern benefits that theatergoers now enjoy.

In order to raise funds for a medical research project, Bryan sold the amphitheater to a promoter, which eventually became the House of Blues. It has been going strong ever since.
