Florida Georgia Line to Headline Y Live
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — The Y Live concert series returns to YSU’s Stambaugh Stadium for its second year with multi-platinum country music duo Florida Georgia Line.
The award-winning performers will headline the event, scheduled for Aug. 11, 2018. Opening for the group will be Morgan Wallen, the singer of the chart-rising hit “Up Down” featuring Florida Georgia Line and a regional fan favorite, Chris Higbee.
This is the second year for the stadium concert event, put on by JAC Live and co-promoted by The Muransky Companies. This year’s show will double as the Southwoods Health concert for the Valley.
“Last year’s Y Live was an incredible amount of hard work and we were thrilled with the result of the success,” said Eric Ryan, JAC Live CEO. “It was a no-brainer to produce another stadium event after the unbelievable response we received from the community. We hope to continue to elevate Youngstown’s music scene for many years to come.”
With new restaurants and amenities opening in the downtown area, Ryan said Y Live gives the community an opportunity to experience the transformation of Youngstown.
