Key changes include reducing setup costs and time for concerts, offering a mid-sized venue between Eden Park and Spark Arena, and improving audience experience through a natural amphitheater design. Promoters like Campbell Smith highlight the potential for the venue to become a cultural hub similar to Los Angeles' Hollywood Bowl.
