The Sugar Hill City Council recently awarded a $1,079,109 contract to Barnsley Construction Group for improvements to the Bowl concert venue. The design includes a new concession kiosk between City Hall and the suites, upgraded seating options and surface materials in the Bowl, and permanent divider panels in the suites.

Barnsley Construction was the lowest of four qualified bidders for the work. The project is expected to take a little over six months to complete and be ready in time for the city’s first concert in the 2020 series.
