Time Warner Puts Name on Walnut Creek Amphitheatre
Time Warner Cable has purchased the naming rights for Raleigh's Walnut Creek Amphitheatre.
Posted — Updated
Terms of the five-year deal weren't disclosed. The concert venue will now be known as Time Warner Cable Music Pavilion at Walnut Creek.
The amphitheater has been without a title sponsor for more than a year, after a deal with Alltel expired.
The deal with Time Warner, which has a two-year renewal option at the end of five years, will allow the cable company to select shows from the concert schedule to telecast on video-on-demand for cable customers, officials said.
Time Warner also expects to be able to offer advance-sale tickets to select performances to cable customers.
Concerts already scheduled for the Time Warner Cable Music Pavilion are:
- Widespread Panic, April 25 and 26
- Kanye West with Rihanna, N.E.R.D, & Lupe Fiasco, May 9
- Tim McGraw with Jason Aldean & Halfway To Hazard , May 17
