Heading to Amalie Arena to see the Hotel California 2022 Tour? Here are some things you're probably curious about.
Is it sold out?
No, as of this morning, there are still a small number of tickets available for sale from Ticketmaster.
How much are tickets?
They aren't cheap! The cheapest I saw were just under $200 for side stage seats. But tickets for the concert start at $125.25 according to the Amalie Arena website.
What time does the show start?
8pm. Doors open about an hour ahead of the show.
What's different about this tour?
This will be the first time in decades the band will play "Hotel California" in its entirety. They'll be accompanied by an orchestra and choir. They will then take an intermission and play more of their biggest hits.
What can I bring in?
Bags under 12x12x12 inches, small point-and-click cameras, binoculars.
What CAN'T I bring in?
Bigger cameras that have detachable lenses, backpacks, video recording devices, food/drinks from outside the arena, signs.
How much is parking?
Parking via ParkWhiz for the show tonight is $25. The Pam Iorio Parking Garage and Expressway Parking Lot 3 are both sold out but there looks to be availability at the Channelside Parking Garage.
Are face coverings still required?
No. They are recommended but not required.
42 years ago today (February 17), the Eagles changed the game with Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975).
Meant as a way to boost record label revenue while the band was making Hotel California, Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) was a monster and was the first release to be Platinum certified (1 million copies sold) by the Recording Industry Association of America. Of course, this set would go on to sell far more than 1 million copies. In honor of its release anniversary, here’s Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) by the numbers.
