Florida Georgia Line will perform at 7 p.m. Oct. 28 at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center, with opening acts Colt Ford and Chris Lane Band.
Tickets go on sale for students at noon Wednesday at the O’Connell Center Box Office, said Daniel Levin, chairman for Student Government Productions. Student tickets are $34 for level one floor seats and $15 for levels two and three.
Lineup begins at 7 a.m. Students can buy four tickets with their Gator 1 Card, with one ID per person. Levin said Wednesday is the only day students can get tickets before the public.
Tickets for the general public are $50 for level one floor seats and $30 for levels two and three. They can also be bought on Ticketmaster starting at 10 a.m. Sept. 26.
“They are arguably one of the hotter country acts now,” said Levin, a 21-year-old industrial and systems engineering senior.
SGP paid $165,000 for the three acts.
Students are already excited about the concert.
“They are a wonderful band,” said Beth Cobb, a 21-year-old public relations junior. “They have songs that connect deep with southern roots.”
