The Saratoga Performing Arts Center
(SPAC), located in the upstate New York town of Saratoga Springs, presents one of America’s greatest Summer Festivals. Dedicated in 1966 by Governor Nelson Rockefeller, the Center
is a 2,400-acre park surrounded by hiking trails, geysers, natural
mineral springs and has four venues: The Amphitheater, The Spa Little Theatre,
The Charles R. Wood Gazebo Stage and The Jazz Bar. The Amphitheater has 5,200
sheltered seats and a lawn-seating capacity for 20,000 more concertgoers. SPAC
draws vacation crowds and arts connoisseurs alike for performances by resident
companies that include The New York City Ballet, The Philadelphia Orchestra,
The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Freihofer’s Saratoga Jazz Festival,
Opera Saratoga and concerts presented by Live Nation.
