In response to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the Dr. Phillips Center came upwardly with a concept for an outdoor, socially distanced venue to continue offering performances in a time when and then much of the world had close down. In May of 2020, the thought for creating the Frontyard Festival™, presented past AdventHealth began and officially launched on December 5, 2020 with its outset show. Located on the front lawn of the Dr. Phillips Centre, the Seneff Arts Plaza, the Frontyard Festival™ offered socially afar boxes that could seat upwards to six people.

The venue costs United states$613 meg, with the completion of Steinmetz Hall. Two-thirds of the funding comes from public funds, largely from the Orange Canton tourist development tax. The other one-3rd comes from private donations, including a large grant from the Dr. P. Phillips Foundation, the philanthropic system funded through the manor of Philip Phillips.
A irksome-downwards in the tourist development tax and other economical conditions forced the plans to become phased into 2 stages of structure. Walt Disney Theater and Alexis & Jim Pugh Theater were function of Phase I. Phase II included Steinmetz Hall and Judson'due south. Groundbreaking took place in June 2011.
