When The City of Fishers embarked on a plan to upgrade the entire area of the municipal complex between City Hall and the Nickel Plate Amphitheater, everyone knew it would be tough to have everything ready by the start of the outdoor concert season,  set for the first week of June.  A severe winter season was a setback.

It now appears the construction is at a point where the city believes concerts will be held at the new and improved Amphitheater complex beginning June 29th, based on information provided on the city’s Web site .

That means some major concert events, including the opening Friday night Amp After Dark featuring John Waite and Duke Tumatoe June 8th, will be held in the Central Green area between City Hall and 116th Street.  The musical acts will be performing atop the steps at the front of City Hall.

Based on the city Web site, the first concert to be held at the upgraded AMP will be part of the new Spark!Fishers summer festival on Friday, June 29th.
