HistoryOutdoor

The Gore Park Bandstand represents the importance of musical entertainment to Elmira in the early 1900s. It played a central role in the social life of early Elmira residents, hosting musical events, such as summer concerts, and continues to bring local residents together today through these same activities.

 

The Bandstand was built in 1912 by A.M. Bowman from a design prepared by members of the Elmira Musical Society.
