About us

The LOT Downtown, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, is so much more than just a music venue. It’s a gathering place where people have raised money for cancer victims, had giant water balloon fights, hosted over 2,000 families for festivals, and most importantly, it’s a place where you can find your inner Mansfield.

Support your community

The LOT Downtown works hard to continually offer free, quality events so we can provide a gathering place for Historic Downtown Mansfield. Each event requires careful stewardship; we’re lucky and grateful that we have partners that care enough to maintain and provide financial support for each of our events, but every year, new volunteers and contributors are needed.

Our history

In 2013, Justin Gilmore, local business owner and architect, began rough sketches of a outdoor performance venue that would eventually be called "The LOT Downtown." Today, The LOT is not only a physical structure at 110 S. Main Street, but also the designation for a 501(c)3 organization responsible for its funding, programs and its future.
