Cuba Gooding¡¦s Pyramid Amphitheater Now Open in Tijuana
Set to open in September 2010, CUBA GOODING`S PYRAMID AMPHITHEATER will be the premiere destination for the best entertainment available in Baja California, Mexico and will rival those in SAN DIEGO, OCEANSIDE AND ORANGE COUNTY. Cuba Gooding will be hosting some of his friends and colleagues from the entertainment industry including such R&B greats as The Temptations, Harold Melvin¡¦s Blue Notes, The Whispers and many, many more. ¡§There is very little in the way of entertainment available on a consistent basis in this area¡¨, says Gooding, ¡§and I believe that there is no better time to bring it here¡¨. Most recently, Cuba was named the official Ambassador of Goodwill to Rosarito Beach in Baja, California Mexico. As Ambassador, he has made it his mission to bring back a positive image of Baja California in the eyes of Americans. Cuba¡¦s 40 years of experience in the entertainment industry as lead singer for The Main Ingredient who¡¦s single ¡§Everybody Plays the Fool¡¨ is still being played on airwaves across the world, makes him the perfect choice to partner with local prominent businessmen and the State Secretariat of Tourism to bring this concept to fruition.
VENUE FEATURES
Located just across the border from San Diego in Tijuana, this venue is perfectly placed to draw both the local community as well as tourists from the San Diego and Los Angeles areas. There are many features which make this venue a unique attraction including its 360 degree revolving stage.
•Featuring 70s & 80s Top Pop & R&B stars LIVE.
•All indoor parking with video surveillance and 24 hour security team.
•VIP seating as well as standing room to accommodate up to 1500 persons with no bad seats based on the design of the revolving stage.
•High end, rooftop, ¡§pyramid¡¨ design provides ambiance with amazing views.
•Ticketing available through Ticket Master, Box Office, Internet, Sponsors and local businesses.
•World Class Dining and Service.

Cuba Gooding¡¦s Pyramid Amphitheater will seek to co-op with businesses in both Tijuana and Rosarito. Tourists and natives that attend concerts at Cuba Gooding¡¦s Pyramid Amphitheater will be encouraged to visit these local businesses. In turn, these businesses will offer special incentives for concert attendees. For example, a discounted hotel rate could be offered upon presentation of an amphitheater concert ticket. Businesses will be able to advertise at the amphitheater as well as in concert program booklets given out at the concerts. These incentives should increase revenue, giving these businesses a much needed boost in tourist dollars.

¡I take my position as Rosarito Goodwill Ambassador very seriously. The Baja has so much to offer the world ¡V from its vibrant and wonderful people to its pristine coastline. Recently, the American media has given the Baja a bit of a ¡§black eye¡¨ by continuing to report crime associated with drug issues. Anyone who has spent any amount of time here knows that this issue has been blown way out of proportion. Because of this negative portrayal, I have watched many local businesses close their doors over the past 2 years and it breaks my heart. Having made Rosarito Beach my second home, I am invested in seeing to it that my community thrives. My amphitheater is a project that I hope will do just that.
As Goodwill Ambassador, I will never stop working hard for the people of the Baja¡¨. Said Cuba Gooding Sr.

The Amphiteather is located at Avenida Constitucion 942-1 (720), Sixth Floor, Downtown Tijuana, Baja Mexico. For more information you can contact:goodingdevelopment@hotmail.com


CUBA GOODING¡¦S PYRAMID AMPHITHEATER will offer quality, world recognized, live entertainment in a safe and beautifully designed venue with service unmatched anywhere in the Baja California, Mexico area. Mexicans and Americans have united in this project to bring positive attention to the region in support of the tourism industry.
