Dwight Yoakam and ZZ Top to Rock the Heartland Events Center

Grand Island, Neb. — Two powerhouse names in American music are coming together for one unforgettable night as ZZ Top and Dwight Yoakam take the stage at the Heartland Events Center on Friday, March 27.

This rare pairing unites one of rock’s most enduring bands with one of country music’s most influential voices, promising a high-energy, hit-filled concert Central Nebraska won’t soon forget. With more than 50 years of music history, ZZ Top remains one of rock’s most iconic groups. Known for unmistakable guitar riffs, blues-driven swagger and classics like “La Grange,” “Sharp Dressed Man” and “Gimme All Your Lovin’,” the band continues to deliver electrifying live performances beloved by audiences of all ages.

Joining them is Grammy Award-winning country legend Dwight Yoakam, whose signature Bakersfield sound and chart-topping hits — including “Guitars, Cadillacs,” “Fast as You,” and “A Thousand Miles From Nowhere” — have made him one of the most respected and influential country artists of the last four decades.

Heartland Events Center Executive Director Kyler Tarwater said the show is one of the biggest bookings the venue has brought to Grand Island.

“This is a massive night of music for our community,” Tarwater said. “ZZ Top and Dwight Yoakam each sell out venues on their own — putting them together on one stage is something special. Fans will get rock, country and everything in between. It’s the kind of event that draws people from all across Nebraska.”

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at both the HEC Box Office as well as online via Ticketmaster.com. Strong demand is expected. For event details and other upcoming shows, visit www.heartlandeventscenter.com or follow the Heartland Events Center on social media.
