Project Gallery / U.S. Capitol Bandshell

The US Capitol Bandshell is erected twice a year on the US Capitol Lawn for both Memorial and Independence Day concerts and festivities. Birdair's PVC roof consists of a twin cone and edge post structure that covers 10,934 square feet (.93 m2). The Birdair structure's light weight permits quick and easy deconstruction, allowing the structure to come to life for important American holidays.
