Mercato in North Naples has unveiled renderings of a brand-new entertainment hub. The mixed-use development currently has a small, central lawn but these plans would expand it and add amenities.

The new entertainment hub will be three times the size of the current lawn which currently runs between Bravo Italian Kitchen and Narrative Coffee Roasters. Plans include adding more turf, seat walls, benches, overhead lighting, and a permanent, covered stage.

Mercato currently hosts tons of events in a few locations. Their movie nights are held on the small lawn near Rocco’s Tacos and some of their concerts are held in the street, requiring them to redirect traffic. This new space will provide a larger, more comfortable venue for concerts, movies, and more.

This renovation is set to begin construction in mid-July and be completed by November.
