National Bowl, Concert venue in Milton Keynes, England
The National Bowl features a natural amphitheater design with grass covered slopes that provide clear views of performances from multiple angles.
The site transformed from a brick quarry into an entertainment venue in 1979, following the addition of soil from Milton Keynes construction projects.
This outdoor arena has hosted performances by major artists including Bon Jovi, Eminem, Green Day, Linkin Park, Oasis, and Take That.
The venue accommodates 65,000 spectators and offers extensive parking facilities, food concessions, and connections to public transportation networks.
The terrain forms a horseshoe shape around the main stage area, created through specific engineering work during Milton Keynes city development.
