About Blossom Music Center

Blossom Music Center, affectionately known as Blossom, is a celebrated outdoor amphitheater located in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, serving as the summer residence of The Cleveland Orchestra and the venue for the annual Blossom Festival. Owned by the Musical Arts Association, the center's name honors the contributions of the Blossom family, notable for their longstanding support of the Musical Arts Association. Featuring a pavilion constructed from slate and tubular steel with seating for 6,051 and a lawn area that accommodates an additional 15,000 guests, Blossom is renowned for its distinctive natural setting, exceptional acoustics, and picturesque surroundings. The inception of Blossom was driven by the need to provide The Cleveland Orchestra musicians with employment throughout the summer months, transitioning from their previous, less stable summer arrangements. Selected in 1966, the site for Blossom spans an original 800 acres, chosen for its ideal location and potential for creating an exceptional outdoor music venue. The design and construction phase included notable collaborations with acousticians and architects, culminating in the opening concert in 1968, which was broadcast live on television. Over the years, Blossom has undergone significant renovations to improve various aspects of the venue, including a major $17 million upgrade in 2003 aimed at enhancing the overall guest experience. Additionally, in a move to bolster the Orchestra's finances and protect the natural beauty of the area, a substantial portion of the land was sold to the National Park Service in 2011. Blossom has not only been a pivotal site for classical music but has also hosted a wide array of popular music events, drawing record-breaking crowds for performances across genres such as folk, rock, and country. It has been the stage for major music festivals like Lollapalooza and Ozzfest, as well as memorable concerts by iconic artists and bands, establishing it as a key venue in the American music landscape.
