Stage is set—literally—for first Concert in Coliseum on 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale

Always looking to push the envelope, WM Phoenix Open tournament organizers The Thunderbirds have done just that with its first Concert in the Coliseum.

The 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale is one of golf’s more famous holes. On Saturday, the par 3 becomes a concert venue.

Construction on a stage started on Wednesday and will take three days to complete. On Friday, the light towers will be installed. On Saturday, it’s show time as country music stars Old Dominion and Thomas Rhett will rock the house in the arena that surrounds the hole.

The two bands will perform on a stage that sits between the tee box and the green.

The gates to the venue open at 3 p.m. local time and the concert starts at 5 p.m..

The event kicks off tournament week. The stage will be disassembled on Sunday and the course will be open for practice rounds on Monday.
