“We saw the great work they are doing in nearby Augusta and what they are doing at the Crown Complex in Fayetteville, NC, as examples of what we can be doing here in Macon-Bibb,” says Mayor Robert Reichert.  “We have two large venues in the center of the state and along the route for many event and concert tours, and we’re looking forward to Spectra making the venues an attractive location to put on their schedules.”
 
“The Coliseum and Auditorium are terrific properties for us to add to our roster of facilities,” said Spectra’s Trent Merritt, Regional Vice President. “As operators we thrive in the secondary and tertiary markets. Macon fits perfectly in our Southeast region where we can create exciting new entertainment opportunities for the region. We look forward to working with Macon-Bibb and the entire community to enhance the customer experience in Macon.”
