Ike temporarily silences The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion
03:22 PM CDT on Friday, September 26, 2008
THE WOODLANDS, Texas -- The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion's 2008 season is over and Hurricane Ike is to blame.
The Pavilion suffered severe damage to its Teflon coated Fiberglas fabric roof and support structure over the reserved seating area, said officials.
A structural engineering firm inspected the facility and concluded that The Pavilion should not be used for public gatherings until the fabric roof system and steel structure have been completely repaired.
“Our facility is unsafe in its current condition to hold any type of public event do to the damage,” said Jerry MacDonald, president and CEO of The Pavilion.
Many of the events were either cancelled, postponed or relocated.
Refunds for cancelled events will be automatically credited to the credit card used to buy those tickets through www.ticketmaster.com or over the phone through Ticketmaster.
