The Gorge Amphitheatre is located on the Columbia River in George, Washington. It offers lawn-terrace seating. Administered by Live Nation, it is considered one of the premier and most scenic concert locations not just in North America, but the world.[1] The venue has been a host to big name performers like The Who, David Bowie, Coldplay, Janet Jackson, Tom Petty, Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews Band, Phish, and Rush. The venue offers sweeping and majestic views of the Columbia River as it skirts the foothills of the Cascade Range southbound, as well as extreme eastern Kittitas County and extreme western Grant County. It is also known for its spectacular views of the Columbia gorge canyon (not to be confused with the Columbia River Gorge proper, which begins several tens of miles further downstream as the river turns west to cross through the Cascades toward Portland and the Pacific Ocean).

Pearl Jam released a box set, featuring their entire performances from 2005 and 2006, aptly titled, Live at the Gorge 05/06.

Brooks & Dunn's "Only in America" video was filmed here.

The amphitheatre has played host to many popular music festivals, including The Sasquatch! Music Festival, The Area:One and Area2 Festival, Ozzfest, Lollapalooza, Lilith Fair, Creation Festival, Paradiso Festival and The Vans Warped Tour.
