==History==
The amphitheater opened in 1987 as Nautica Stage and was renamed [Scene](/source/Cleveland_Scene) Pavilion in 2003, following renovations that included the addition of a [canopy](/source/canopy_(building)).<ref>{{cite web |url=https://geigerengineers.com/project/1532651974882/jacobs-pavilion-nautica-entertainment-complex |title=Jacobs Pavilion |publisher=Geiger Engineers |access-date=March 1, 2022}}</ref> 

The naming rights were then purchased by ''[The Plain Dealer](/source/The_Plain_Dealer)'' in 2006 and it was renamed The Plain Dealer Pavilion, a name which lasted until February 2009 when it was renamed Nautica Pavilion.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://blog.cleveland.com/business/2009/02/amphitheater_on_west_bank_of_t.html |title=Amphitheater on West Bank of the Flats to be renamed 'Nautica Pavilion' |first=Marcia |last=Pledger |work=[The Plain Dealer](/source/The_Plain_Dealer) |date=2009-02-06 |access-date=2009-02-06}}</ref> 

Its current name was adopted in March 2011.<ref>{{cite news |first=John |last=Soeder |title=Time Warner Cable Amphitheater Closes; Nautica Pavilion Reborn as Jacobs Pavilion |url=http://www.cleveland.com/popmusic/index.ssf/2011/03/time_warner_cable_amphitheater.html |work=[The Plain Dealer](/source/The_Plain_Dealer) |date=2011-03-30 |access-date=2011-03-30}}</ref>

The venue offers bleacher and festival seating with a view of the [Cuyahoga River](/source/Cuyahoga_River), the lights of [downtown Cleveland](/source/downtown_Cleveland) and the picturesque lighted bridges of the area, and typically holds 20 to 30 events with the concert season beginning in late spring, going through the summer, and ending in early fall.
