Early ending season for The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion

The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, Tx ended their 2008 season early because of Damage from Hurricane Ike. The pavilion did suffer severe damage to the Teflon coated Fiberglas fabric roof and support structure over the reserved seating area.

Damage was reviewed and assessed by a structural engineering firm that was hired to check the Pavilion. They concluded that it should not be used for public gatherings until everything had been completely repaired for the safety of the public.

Many events that were going to be held at The Woodlands Pavilion were canceled, postponed or relocated due to the damage, these shows included:

Houston Symphony's "Music of Mozart"

Santana

3 Doors Down

Robert Plant & Alison Krauss

Houston Ballet's "Classics on Pointe"

KSBJ's "The Music Builds Tour"

Brad Paisley

Houston Symphony's "Hocus Pocus Pops"

Buzzfest XXII

14th Annual Children's Festival
