Visitors are subject to magnetometer screening, and bags will be searched. Permissible items include a clear bag no larger than 12" x 12" x 6", a small purse or clutch no larger than 9” x 5”, a cell phone, diaper bag, and non-professional cameras without detachable lenses.

What to Expect at the Event

Carly Pearce opens the night with her compelling "that boy done me wrong" songs, charming the crowd with favorites like "Every Little Thing" and "Next Girl." She might even pay homage to Tim McGraw’s legendary wife — Pearce has been known to cover Faith Hill’s "Let’s Go to Vegas" on recent tour dates! A win for all, as the growing country star can showcase her Grammy Award-winning vocals while also connecting with the audience’s nostalgia.

McGraw takes the stage a bit later, around 9:00 p.m., and, for over 90 minutes, delivers a powerhouse performance that spans his illustrious 30-year career. Tour-goers have reported that he barely sings a couple of songs from his latest album, “Standing Room Only,” as most of his set is focused on crowd-pleasing classics. Take out your smartphone and snap a picture to remember this concert!

While he jokes that he’s the worst singer in his family and a man of few words, McGraw usually engages with the front row of concertgoers: fans can expect to be high-fived and fist-bumped! The show may include a few more surprises, including a video montage of superstar Taylor Swift singing along with McGraw to their 2013 hit "Highway Don't Care."
