 Located just across US30 near the Columbia River where Lewis and Clark once rested during their famed travels, only 33-miles West of Portland, Oregon, is The Columbia Meadows concert site. This concert site is more than 100-acres of lush meadowlands nestled up against a hillside of towering evergreens. Blackberry bushes perfume the air with the smell of their sweet fruit. You will forget about the hustle and bustle of city life as you stroll through parking areas to the Concert Entry. There are no sidewalks in these open fields and the lighting is limited. It's just you and the natural beauty of rural Columbia County. more...
