Global superstar Josh
Groban announces a handful of special shows in Florida early 2020 kicking
off on March 8th in Fort Meyers at the Barbara B Mann Performing Arts Hall,
including a stop at the Times-Union Center For The Performing Arts on March 13,
before wrapping up on March 16th at the Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater. Groban was unable to schedule stops in Florida
on his last sold-out Bridges tour, so he wanted to make it up to his fans by
booking several intimate shows in early 2020.

packages for select shows, which bundle a premium concert ticket with exclusive
merchandise and pre-show access to a lounge for food and drink amongst fellow
fans. A limited number of packages also
include a Meet & Greet with Josh. For

February 14, 2020, continue on April 18, 2020 with a third date added for June
20, 2020, due to overwhelming demand.
