When is the Alison Krauss concert in Canandaigua and what time does it start?

The Alison Krauss & Union Station concert in Canandaigua, New York is scheduled for Saturday, July 25, 2026 at CMAC (Constellation Brands–Marvin Sands Performing Arts Center). The performance time is listed as 7:30 pm, with doors opening at 6:00 pm and some listings using a 7:00 pm event time, so planning to be inside the venue by about 7:00 pm ensures you are ready when the music begins.

Where is CMAC and what is the venue like?

CMAC is an outdoor amphitheater located at 3355 Marvin Sands Drive in Canandaigua, NY, on the campus of Finger Lakes Community College near Canandaigua Lake. The venue features a large covered pavilion with reserved seating and a spacious lawn area, combining strong production and acoustics with a relaxed summer-concert atmosphere that suits Alison’s acoustic, harmony-driven music.

Who is performing with Alison Krauss at the CMAC show?

This date is part of the Arcadia 2026 Tour and is billed as Alison Krauss & Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas, with special guest Theo Lawrence. The players are Alison Krauss (fiddle, lead vocal), Jerry Douglas (dobro, lap steel, vocals), Ron Block (banjo, guitar, vocals), Barry Bales (bass, vocals), and celebrated tenor Russell Moore (guitar, mandolin, lead vocal), bringing the full Union Station lineup to the CMAC stage.

How long will the concert last and what kind of setlist can I expect?

CMAC lists doors at 6:00 pm and showtime at 7:30 pm, and Arcadia 2026 dates are described as full evening shows that usually run close to three hours including Theo Lawrence’s opening set. Fans can expect a setlist that blends Union Station favorites, bluegrass and roots standards, and new material from the 2025 album “Arcadia,” with space for instrumental showcases, vocal harmony features, and stories that trace the band’s four-decade history.

How can I buy tickets for the July 25, 2026 concert in Canandaigua?

Tickets are available through CMAC’s official ticketing partners and major national vendors listing Alison Krauss & Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas at CMAC on Saturday, July 25, 2026 at 7:30 pm. When purchasing, confirm that the event is at Constellation Brands–Marvin Sands Performing Arts Center in Canandaigua, NY, on the correct date and time, and use a seller that provides a clear seating chart and full fee breakdown before checkout.

What are some good ways to get cheaper tickets for the CMAC show?

To find cheaper tickets, compare prices across several reputable sites rather than buying from the first listing, since service fees and markups can vary even for similar seats. Look for early public on-sale or presale opportunities, consider upper pavilion or lawn tickets with lower base prices, and monitor verified resale platforms as the date approaches, when some sellers may drop prices to avoid being left with unused tickets.

Are there tips for getting good seats at a lower price (pavilion vs. lawn)?

For strong value, focus on mid-priced pavilion sections that sit under the roof but a bit farther from the stage, where sound is excellent and you still have a clear view without paying front-row rates. If you choose lawn tickets to save money, arrive close to the 6:00 pm door time with a blanket or low-back chair (within venue rules) so you can claim a central spot near the front of the lawn and enjoy a good sightline at a lower cost.

When do tickets go on sale and is there a presale?

The CMAC event listing notes that tickets go on sale Friday, December 12 at 10:00 am, and the Arcadia 2026 tour press release highlights artist presales for all headline dates beginning at 10:00 am local time a few days earlier, followed by additional local presales. Signing up for Alison’s mailing list, CMAC’s email updates, and following their social accounts can help you receive presale codes and direct ticket links, which may give access to better seat choices and pricing before the general on-sale.

What time do gates open and how early should I arrive at CMAC?

For this show, CMAC lists doors at 6:00 pm and performance time at 7:30 pm, giving a 90-minute arrival window. Arriving between 6:00 and 6:30 pm is ideal, as it allows time for parking, walking into the amphitheater, passing security checks, grabbing concessions or merch, and settling into your pavilion seat or lawn spot before Theo Lawrence opens the night.

What is the Arcadia 2026 Tour and how does the Canandaigua date fit into it?

The Arcadia 2026 Tour is an extensive North American run supporting Alison Krauss & Union Station’s album “Arcadia,” which marked their first studio release since 2011’s “Paper Airplane” and returned them to the top of multiple Billboard charts. Canandaigua on July 25 follows Albany and Chautauqua and comes just before Bridgeport and several New England dates, placing it in the heart of the busy July Northeast leg when the setlist and production are in peak mid-tour form.

Are there budget-friendly travel, parking, and comfort tips for attending the CMAC concert?

To save on costs, consider carpooling and using general CMAC parking rather than premium lots, and check in advance whether parking fees are separate from your ticket so you can budget accordingly. For comfort without overspending, bring allowed items like low-back chairs or blankets for the lawn, dress in layers for a Finger Lakes summer evening, and plan meals in Canandaigua or nearby towns ahead of time so you are not relying solely on higher-priced on-site food and drinks.
