Boston, MA Fenway Sports Group Real Estate (FSGRE), a subsidiary of Fenway Sports Group (FSG), hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for the MGM Music Hall at Fenway, a new performing arts center being developed on the corner of Lansdowne and Ipswich Sts. The venue will be operated in partnership with Live Nation Entertainment, the world’s leading live entertainment company, and is currently scheduled to open for business in the fall of 2021. 

The MGM Music Hall at Fenway marks the first development project undertaken by FSGRE beyond the walls of Fenway Park. The project will occupy 91,500 s/f on four levels and accommodate 5,000 patrons. The new venue will replace the open-air, paved lot – often referred to as “the Triangle Lot” – that has long accommodated parking for broadcast trucks and functioned as a service yard for Fenway Park.

The MGM Music Hall at Fenway will be owned by Fenway Sports Group Real Estate and operated by a newly formed joint venture, Fenway Music Company, a partnership between Fenway Sports Management (FSM) and Live Nation. Fenway Music Co. will book, manage, and operate the MGM Music Hall at Fenway, as well as the House of Blues Boston on Lansdowne St.
