The BayCare Sound is nestled along the intercoastal waterway in Coachman Park in downtown Clearwater and neighbors world-renowned Clearwater Beach. Owned by the City of Clearwater, Ruth Eckerd Hall manages and operates this state-of-the-art music venue that features 4,000 covered seats with an additional 5,000 seated lawn presenting a wide variety of national and international touring acts. Recently, industry trade publication Pollstar named The BayCare Sound the #1 amphitheater in Tampa, #2 in Florida, #2 in the United States and #3 in the world of amphitheaters with a capacity of 10,000 people or less based on gross ticket sales. In September 2024, IEBA (International Entertainment Buyers Association) recognized The BayCare Sound as a finalist for 2024 Amphitheater of the Year. In 2026, The BayCare Sound was named Best Live Music Venue by Visit St. Pete Clearwater for the third consecutive year.
