McKINNEY, Texas (April 16, 2024) – The McKinney City Council has approved a development agreement with Notes Live to develop a 20,000-seat open-air amphitheater on 46 acres at the northeast corner of U.S. 75 and S.H. 121.  This project – called the Sunset Amphitheater – represents a potential investment in the community in excess of $220 million. It is estimated to bring over 1,300 direct and indirect jobs to the community and an economic impact of roughly $3 billion to the area over the first ten years. Bringing this world-class venue to McKinney is a joint effort by the city, the McKinney Economic Development Corporation, and the McKinney Community Development Corporation.   To learn more, visit McKinneyTexas.org/Sunset .   # # #
