Tickets to more than 120 upcoming concerts are being discounted to $30, all-in, during Live Nation’s Summer of Live! promotion, which launches at 10 a.m. Wednesday, April 29.
Among the artists included are Lionel Richie, Wu-Tang Clan, Bryan Adams, the Black Crowes, Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn, TLC, Muse, ZAYN, Santana, the Pussycat Dolls and the Kid Laroi. The venues include Little Caesars Arena, Pine Knob, Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre and Meadow Brook Amphitheatre.
Tickets for the shows will be available at livenation.com/promotion/summeroflive. Members of Live Nation’s All Access program will get first crack at tickets beginning Thursday, and a presale for T-Mobile users starts at 10 a.m. Tuesday.
The one-week sale — it runs through 11:59 p.m. on May 5 — includes a limited number of tickets to each of the participating concerts. In other words: once they’re gone, they’re gone.
Fans purchasing tickets should go to the individual event listing and look for “Summer of Live Promotion” in the ticket type field. All fees are included in the $30 price, but some taxes may apply, according to a release.
