Frequently Asked Questions
When is the Alison Krauss concert in Akron and what time does it start?
The Alison Krauss & Union Station concert in Akron, Ohio is scheduled for Wednesday, June 24, 2026 at E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall on the University of Akron campus. The show is listed for a 7:30 pm start time, with some event pages also noting a 7:00 pm window, so planning to be in your seat by around 7:00 pm ensures you are ready when the music begins.
Where is E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall and what is the venue like?
E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall is located at 198 Hill Street on the University of Akron campus, close to downtown Akron and its restaurants and parking garages. It is a large, modern performing arts venue with orchestra and balcony levels, excellent acoustics, and professional sound and lighting, offering a comfortable, theater-style setting that suits Alison’s detailed vocals and acoustic band arrangements.
Who is performing with Alison Krauss at the Akron show?
This concert is part of the Arcadia 2026 Tour and is billed as Alison Krauss & Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas, with special guest Theo Lawrence. The tour details confirm the core Union Station lineup—Alison Krauss, Jerry Douglas, Ron Block, Barry Bales, and Russell Moore—so fans can look forward to rich harmonies, dobro features, and a full-band performance rather than a stripped-down set.
How long will the concert last and what kind of setlist can I expect?
Arcadia 2026 headlining shows are promoted as full evening events, usually running around three hours including the opener, with Alison Krauss & Union Station on stage for roughly 90 minutes to two hours. The setlist is expected to feature a blend of classic Union Station favorites, bluegrass and Americana standards, and newer songs from the Arcadia album, with space for instrumental solos, Jerry Douglas spotlights, and the kind of harmony-driven arrangements that longtime fans love.
How can I buy tickets for the June 24, 2026 concert in Akron?
Tickets are available through major primary ticket sellers listing “Alison Krauss and Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas” at E.J. Thomas Hall on June 24, 2026 at 7:30 pm, as well as several reputable resale marketplaces. When you purchase, double-check that the listing shows the correct venue name, date, and start time, and use a seller that provides a seating map, clear section and row information, and a full breakdown of fees before you complete checkout.
What are some good ways to get cheaper tickets for this show?
To find cheaper tickets, compare prices on several trusted platforms rather than buying from the first site you visit, since each seller may add different service fees and markups for similar seats. Look for options in the balcony or rear orchestra where base prices are lower, keep an eye on artist and local presales, and watch verified resale listings as the date approaches because some sellers will lower prices to avoid holding unused tickets.
Are there tips for getting good seats at a lower price?
For strong value, target mid-priced sections such as mid-orchestra or front balcony, which often offer an excellent balance of sound and sightlines without premium front-row pricing. If your schedule is flexible and the show is not close to selling out, set alerts on trusted resale sites for these areas and be ready to buy if prices dip in the weeks leading up to June 24, when some listings may fall below original face value.
What time do doors open and how early should I arrive at E.J. Thomas Hall?
For a 7:30 pm show at E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall, doors commonly open about an hour before showtime to allow guests to pass through ticket scanning and find their seats. Arriving 45–60 minutes early helps you navigate campus or downtown parking, walk to the hall, use restrooms or concessions, and settle in before Theo Lawrence takes the stage to open the evening.
What is the Arcadia 2026 Tour and how does the Akron date fit into it?
The Arcadia 2026 Tour is a wide-ranging North American run supporting Alison Krauss & Union Station’s album Arcadia, marking a major return to the road with Jerry Douglas and the full band. Akron’s E.J. Thomas Hall show on June 24 comes immediately after Nashville, IN and before Williamsburg, VA on the tour routing, meaning the production and setlist will be finely tuned and the band will be deep into its mid-summer groove by the time they reach Ohio.
Are there budget-friendly travel and parking tips for attending the Akron concert?
Because the hall sits on the University of Akron campus near downtown, carpooling, using standard university or city parking garages, or coordinating rideshare drop-off can help reduce transportation and parking costs. To save more, consider eating at nearby local spots a bit away from the immediate pre-show rush, check lodging options just outside the downtown core if staying overnight, and avoid last-minute purchases at the venue by planning ahead for any snacks, drinks, or merchandise you truly want.
