Outdoor venues continue to multiply in 2021.
Last year, arts groups scrambled to fashion stages within mere weeks as the coronavirus pandemic brought indoor entertainment to a halt. Their efforts were worth it audiences snapped up tickets to events that allowed social distance, fresh air and fun.
Now, armed with a year of planning, the venues that were new last year are returning with upgrades. And more are entering the outdoor realm for the first time, too. Here are the spots where you ll find live music, plays, poetry, movies, dance and art tours all summer long.
