With Live Nation in the news, we thought we'd check in on the lineup from the live music giant's Richmond's venue: Allianz Amphitheater at Riverfront.
Why it matters: Concerts start back up there in just over a month.
State of play: More than a dozen artists are already on tap to play the amphitheater for its second year, including big gets for RVA like Sting, Khalid and The Black Keys.
Yes, but: There haven't been any immediate sell-out artists announced for 2026 yet, like last year's Dave Matthews Band double-header.
- But, but, but: That means Richmonders have been spared the $2,700 resale tickets we saw with DMB last year.
- Resale tickets for Sting's May show aren't cheap, though.
- A single front-row center resale ticket will set you back $920, per a review of show tickets. (Lawn tickets are still available for Sting for $83.75.)
