McMenamins is diving right into a fun-filled summer with the launch of a new outdoor concert venue at its Grand Lodge location in Forest Grove.

Grand Lodge Concerts in the Grove started hosting live music this week. She & Him performed the inaugural show yesterday evening, kicking off a summer concert series with a little something for every musical taste. Here are some quick facts about the new venue.

📍 Location

McMenamins Grand Lodge is located at 3503 Pacific Ave., Forest Grove — that’s about 25 miles west of Portland + an hour from the coast. The building itself, which was a former retirement home for Masons, was built 100 years ago.

🪑 Capacity

About 3,000 people can attend a concert at the Grand Lodge’s open-air venue; that’s about half the capacity of McMenamins Edgefield, so you can expect a slightly more intimate experience when you attend a show. There are some picnic tables, fire pits, and plenty of room to spread out a blanket on the grass.
