Tampa’s Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino has been getting a major expansion, and Keith Urban is set to break in its new, 1,500-seat event center this fall.
Officials at the Seminole Hard Rock made that announcement today as part of the unveiling for its new piece of memorabilia, Elvis Presley’s iconic 24-karat gold leaf grand piano, which is in the casino’s new grand entranceway.
Urban, the Australian (Heineken-hating?) pop-country singer-songwriter, will play the venue on Friday, October 4 as part of a grand opening weekend. At the time of this writing, the least expensive tickets for the 21 & up concert were $196 via ticketmaster.com (see a seating chart below).
A press release says that in addition to the Hard Rock Event Center, a 17,000-square-foot grand ballroom will host conventions, trade shows, private events, large-scale poker tournaments and concerts, including 60 major entertainment acts each year.
