The Universal Amphitheatre is being rechristened the Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk as part of a joint partnership among instrument maker Gibson Guitar Corp., Universal Studios Partnerships and House of Blues Concerts.

The 32-year-old, 6,089-seat amphitheater will receive a facelift that will include the installation of a skybox, Gibson-branded signage and lighting, and the installation of an external "Gibson Guitar Garden" for on-site presentations and events.
"There's a whole new light show, and a gigantic guitar sculpture," Juszkiewicz (Gibson chairman and CEO) said. "It's going to jazz up the way the amphitheater looks outside ... It's going to be very iconic."
Awaiting with bated breath a report that the Giant Guitar "Sculpture" fell and took with it scores of society's riffraff that frequent Citywalk.
