Lynyrd Skynyrd to headline event at Hertz Arena on Dec. 1
Five hundred tickets to the Hurricane Ian Benefit Concert at Hertz Arena (The Hoffmann Family of Companies) in Estero on Thursday, Dec. 1, have been donated to those heavily impacted by the record-breaking storm. Naples residents, The Hallberg Family, graciously purchased the 500 tickets to be distributed to help victims have a night out after months of heartache. Concert organizers worked with local non-profit groups, churches, local law enforcement agencies and first responders to identify ticket recipients.
The night will be headlined by Rock & Roll Hall of Fame group Lynyrd Skynyrd and will feature performances by Ira Dean, Gavin DeGraw, Brian Kelley, Tracy Lawrence, Ted Nugent, RaeLynn and John Rich. Naples, FL, resident comedian Jim Breuer will host the evening.
The event is produced by Live Nation and Ira Dean for Boots on the Sand, Inc. Proceeds from the concert will be directed to the Florida Disaster Fund through Volunteer Florida, and Collier Community Foundation, Collaboratory and Charlotte Community Foundation.
Boots on the Sand, Inc., is dedicated to the recovery of Southwest Florida in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian, one of the top five most devastating storms in US history.
Tickets are currently on sale at Ticketmaster or the Hertz Arena Box Office.
