Shell no longer Levitt, plans to return to roots
The Levitt Shell is bathed in red light on Tuesday, Sept. 1, 2020 as it participates in a national effort called #SaveOurStages to get legislation passed to support live performance venues. The venue was renamed “Overton Park Shell,” on March 3, 2022. (Daily Memphian file)
The venue plans to continue its mission of free concerts every year, but will rely on other revenue streams, such as more ticketed concerts.
