Darling's Waterfront Pavilion is, as of 2013, the name used for an open air amphitheater located in Waterfront Park[2] in Bangor, Maine.

The Pavilion first opened on July 28, 2010[3] with a performance by Celtic Woman.[4] The venue was referred to simply as "Waterfront Park" until a 2013 arrangement between Waterfront Concerts and Darling's, a locally-owned car dealership, led to the new name.[5]

A University of Maine study in 2013 showed that the economic impact of the Waterfront Concert series totaled more than $30 million since 2010.[6] The Kahbang Music, Art & Film Festival and American Folk Festival are also held at Waterfront Park.
