Reserved seat tickets offer the most exclusive amphitheater experience with 1,400 house chairs located near the front of the stage, an increase of 400 chairs over last season.

To help alleviate traffic stress, nearly two acres of additional parking space has been added this season, allowing for roughly 2,700 patrons without the need for shuttles. Shuttles will be available from the Maryhill Museum lot to accommodate nights with larger crowds. Shuttling services are free with paid admission.

The 4,000 seat outdoor amphitheater is built into an existing slope on the grounds below the Maryhill Winery and tasting room and offers sweeping vistas of Mt. Hood and the Columbia River Gorge.

Guests can bring blankets or low-back chairs for use within the grass-terraced general admission area. Regional caterers will provide food for concertgoers. Maryhill Winery's 2005 Summer Concert Series is partnered by The Dalles Area Chamber of Commerce and Q-104 radio. Produced by House Of Blues Concerts.
