<\/a><\/p>\nFor decades, Colorado\u2019s legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre has been a bucket-list destination for music fans across the country. Now, Texas is finally getting an answer of its own. Just a quick road trip down I-35 for Dallas locals, a massive new music destination dubbed White Rocks is officially in the works.<\/p>\n
Located near Bee Cave, just south of Austin, the White Rocks amphitheater will be the centerpiece of a sprawling 71-acre development known as the UMusic Hotel & Private Residences Austin. The project is a major collaboration between White Rocks (acting as property owner and developer) and UMusic Hospitality & Lifestyle (operating the hotel), in partnership with Universal Music Group.<\/p>\n

Designed to harmonize with the local landscape, the 10,000-seat, open-air amphitheater will overlook a 10,000-acre Texas Hill Country preserve. The venue\u2019s design prioritizes a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, utilizing natural materials, clean architectural lines, and underground mechanical systems to preserve both environmental integrity and top-tier acoustics.<\/p>\n

Beyond the amphitheater, the development serves as a comprehensive entertainment hub. It appears to be an evolution of the previously proposed \u201cViolet Crown\u201d concept, which was reimagined following environmental and permitting pushback.<\/p>\n
The property will feature a 150-room hotel equipped with a variety of luxury and entertainment amenities, including a central anchor bar, indoor performance venue, professional recording studios, nightclub, comedy club, expansive wellness center, and dining options. <\/p>\n

For those looking to make the venue a permanent getaway, the project also marks the debut of UMusic\u2019s first-ever collection of 600 Private Residences. Condominiums are currently available for purchase, offering residents direct access to the site\u2019s entertainment options, along with exclusive perks like private pools, fitness facilities, and secure underground parking.<\/p>\n
