Long Island’s Nassau Coliseum can expect to see a surge in event bookings in late 2021, but that may be short-lived.
The Uniondale arena where the NHL’s New York Islanders also played shuttered because of Covid in June. In August, EB-5 developer Nick Mastroianni was approved to take over as the leaseholder from billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov’s Onexim Sports and Entertainment. Onexim had $100 million in loan obligations on the property.
This week, Mastroianni touted the “pent-up demand for a return to normalcy, which includes live events, shows, etc.,” Newsday reported.
But a new report shows that the boost the Coliseum will see when concerts return late next year or early 2022 will be short-lived, according to Newsday, which obtained a copy of the document.
