VENU Holding Corp. has announced multi-platinum country music superstar Dierks Bentley has become a shareholder in the live entertainment company. Bentley will also serve as a founding member of the company's newly formed advisory council.
"I've always believed that live music is one thing that can truly bring people together," said Bentley. "I've played a lot of venues over the years and the first time I walked into one of VENU's spaces, I could tell they were thinking differently."
"The layout, the sound, the experience for the fans and the artists— it just felt right," he added. "I'm always looking for ways to give fans the best concert experience possible, so it's exciting to be part of something that's raising the bar for live music across the board."
Bentley's involvement as a shareholder comes at a transformative moment as VENU executes one of the most ambitious growth strategies in the entertainment industry.
The company recently announced a multi-billion-dollar development pipeline projected to generate more than $17.7 billion in economic impact over the next 20 years, $1.3 billion in active construction currently underway, on their way to a projected $5 billion in the next 36 months.
VENU is targeting a total of 40 locations by 2030 - including 25 amphitheaters and 15 indoor entertainment complexes - with venues being built in Oklahoma, Texas and additional markets in pre-construction phases.
