The Zac Brown Band probably won’t surprise Columbus concertgoers with free vacations like they did in Boston, but the audience could still get some unexpected perks.
Thousands of fans were gifted cruises for two during a show at Fenway Park on Aug. 2, when the band’s 15th performance at the iconic venue broke their previous record for most consecutive sold-out shows there.
Cruise giveaways aren’t likely when the Zac Brown Band comes to Nationwide Arena on Aug. 14, but you might hear some cover tunes that float your boat.
The Southern rockers, who previously played at the arena in 2023, are known to sprinkle their setlist with covers from the Eagles to Stevie Wonder to the Beastie Boys.
Grammy Award-winning Americana ensemble Old Crow Medicine Show
will open the upcoming concert. Ticket prices range from $56.95 to $156.70.

With more than a dozen No. 1 hits between Billboard’s Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts, it’s clear the Zac Brown Band is known for more than playing other artists’ music.
The three-time Grammy Award winners have topped the charts with songs including “Chicken Fried,” “Toes,” “Colder Weather,” “As She’s Walking Away” and “Knee Deep.”
The band’s repeated sellouts at Fenway Park earned them a place in the Fenway Music Hall of Fame, which honors artists achieving historic milestones or record-breaking success at the venue. Only three other acts have been inducted: Billy Joel, Paul McCartney and Noah Kahan.
The Zac Brown Band made musical history again in 2025 as the first country group to perform at Sphere in Las Vegas. Their limited-run residency coincided with the release of their latest album, “Love & Fear.”
