AKRON, Ohio — With outdoor concert season right around the corner, the city of Akron is preparing to welcome Donnie Iris and the Cruisers.
The show, which is being hosted by the Akron Civic Theatre in partnership with 97.5 WONE, will take place at Lock 3 on Saturday, June 4.
“Donnie Iris is an American rock musician known for his work with the Jaggerz and Wild Cherry during the 1970s, and for his solo career beginning in the 1980s with his band, the Cruisers,” according to the Akron Civic Theatre.
The opening act is Ravenwood with Joe Vitale Jr.
Tickets are on sale HERE at $20 for general admission or $55 for reserved.
This concert was previously announced when the city of Akron first revealed its scheduled list of live music for 2022's Rock the Lock last month.
“Each year, this concert series brings thousands of Akronites and guests into Akron’s ‘central park’ to enjoy good music, good company and good times,” Akron Mayor Dan Horrigan said Friday. “We can’t wait to entertain you again this summer so mark your calendars and come on down.”
