What a wonderful new video about Bangor's ever evolving entertainment scene produced by the Maine Development Foundation!

Here you'll learn about the evolution of the arts in the Queen City, how the old rail yard on Bangor's Waterfront was turned into "green space"and is now home to the American Folk Festival, and how Waterfront Concerts now brings "people north to Bangor!"

The video goes on to explain the benefits of having a business like the Hollywood Casino Hotel & Raceway in town, and how it contributed to the building of the new Cross Insurance Center.

The video has informational clips from Tanya Emery, Bangor's Economic Development Director, Bari Newport, the Penobscot Theatre Artistic Director, Bangor City Manager Cathy Conlow, Brewer's Director of Economic Development D'arcy Main-Boyington, Heather McCarthy, Director of the American Folk Festival, Kerrie Tripp, from the Bangor Convention and Visitor's Bureau,  Jose Flores from Hollywood Casino Hotel & Raceway, Miles Theeman from Friends of the Cross Insurance Center.

So, what's ahead for Bangor?  Find the answer at the end of the video!
