The excitement is building as Clearwater gets ready for the Grand Opening week of its $84 million Coachman Park that will include free activities, food and beverage vendors, local crafters and concerts.
And what a park it is with its waterfront Bay Walk, world-class amphitheater, gas-powered torches, huge splashpad and play area, lake and paved walkways.
The Sound includes 4,000 covered seats plus an additional 5,000 lawn seats. Concession stands will be cashless and there will be areas for food trucks as well.
Public parking is available throughout the downtown district. Please view The City of Clearwater’s Downtown Parking Map for the most up-to-date parking availability. Carpooling and utilizing public transportation, such as the Jolley Trolley and PSTA buses are strongly encouraged.
