CMAC concert venue in New York: What to know

Constellation Brands-Marvin Sands Performing Arts Center is the official name of the Canandaigua area’s outdoor concert venue. Everyone calls it CMAC. 

Marvin Sands is the late founder of Canandaigua Wine Co. and one of the community leaders responsible for opening the venue in 1983 as the Finger Lakes Performing Arts Center. Constellation Brands secured the naming rights to the venue in 2006 after community leaders approached Constellation Brands execs Richard and Rob Sands to save and improve it. 

CMAC features 5,000 covered seats and lawn seating for up to 10,000 guests.
