The Stadium Tour featuring co-headliners Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe, with Poison and Joan Jett & The Black Hearts, will hit select cities in the U.S. next summer, and Orlando is one of the lucky stops!
Orlando’s Camping World Stadium will host the tour on Thursday, July 9, 2020. An outdoor show in the middle of Florida summer? Challenge accepted.
Every month, except November and December, the Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Orlando hosts a live concert called Velvet Sessions. It’s a 21 and over event that features classic rock and pop artists performing in an intimate club-like atmosphere.
This month, 80s hitmaker Bret Michaels will take the stage on September 26.
Though recently known as a reality TV star, Michaels first rose to fame as the frontman for the hard rock band Poison. With that band, he sold over 30 million records worldwide, and had a string of hits, such as “Talk Dirty to Me,” “Unskinny Bop,” and the #1 hit, “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.
This is a special Pinktober version, so tickets this month are $29 in advance online or $5 at the door. This not only gets you in the door, but free specialty drinks, finger foods and warm-up tunes from 6:30 pm until show time. Complimentary valet parking is also included.
For $50, you can upgrade to VIP, which in addition to the above perks, gives you access to a special viewing area with a private bar, as well as all the benefits of the regular ticket.
After the show, a DJ plays tunes until 1am. Must be 21 or older for entry.
Here’s a video of Poison’s hit party anthem, “Nothin’ But A Good Time,” to prepare you for the show:
