“My wife and I called Greater Cincinnati home for 17 years,” said Ryan Legg, CEO and founder of MegaCorp Logistics, in a statement. “Having lived in both the Kentucky and Ohio sides of town, it gives us personal joy to sponsor such an amazing musical venue that we know will bring incredible live entertainment to the area.”

Earlier this year, MegaCorp announced it was moving its Cincinnati office to the Ovation on the River community development in Newport, Kentucky. With the new office adjacent to the venue, the company believes the partnership with venue owners PromoWest and Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) Presents will aid in achieving its goal of doubling its operation team, said Bob Klare, president of MegaCorp Logistics.

“Their proximity to the venue and their enthusiasm lines up perfectly with our goals and mission. We look forward to a great, long-term partnership as we approach the one-year anniversary of the opening of our state-of-the-art indoor/outdoor venue," said PromoWest Productions CEO and AEG Presents Regional Vice President Scott Stienecker.

The newly named MegaCorp Pavilion hosts over 100 shows and events per year. As the area’s first indoor/outdoor concert venue in Newport, Kentucky, the venue has hosted notable performances from The Killers, The Avett Brothers, Rainbow Kitten Surprise and Jelly Roll. Upcoming performances include Zach Bryan, The 1975, AWOLNATION, and Marc Rebillet.
