FAIRBANKS CONCERT ASSOCIATION ANNOUNCES 2016-2017 SEASON

“SEE IT ALL. SHARE IT ALL. HAVE IT ALL.”

We are thrilled to announce our 2016 – 2017 season and that season tickets are available.

We are always excited to announce our new season, we’ve found some exciting, innovative, new artists and we look forward to seeing the community excitement around this new season. There’s diversity, favorites we’ve received consistent requests for, and consistent themes that run throughout the year. We hope you’ll join us!

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, last here in 2011 with their Christmas show, returns as the season opener.
