George Strait recently just finished his last tour ever. For those who are unfamiliar with his work, he is a very prominent and famous country music artist, music producer, and actor who has been nicknamed the “King of Country”. He has a massive discography and if you are a fan of country, he is definitely worth checking out. Strait is also known for putting on some amazing live shows, and his recent arena tour dubbed “The Cowboy Ride Away” was truly epic. A select few were also able to purchase some VIP packages, and they were some of the best that we have ever seen. Let us take a look at what you got with those VIP packages.
For Strait’s most recent tour, he offered two different VIP packages at two different price points. The first package called the “Ace in The Hole” ticket package was $499 dollars and included one ticket for a seat in the first fifteen rows of the venue, an invitation to a pre-show party with complimentary food and a cash bar, admission to “The King’s Exhibit” which is a private exhibit of George Strait memorabilia that travels with the tour, one VIP parking pass, one exclusive tour poster, one VIP limited edition merchandise gift, a VIP laminate, private merchandise shopping, and on-site concert concierge service.
If that was not enough for you, then you could upgrade to “The Troubadour” VIP ticket package for $1,299 dollars. This package granted you one front row ticket, a signed George Strait guitar, invitation to the pre-show party, admission to the exhibit, a VIP parking pass, a tour poster, a limited edition gift, a VIP laminate, private merchandise shopping, and on-site concert concierge service as well.
VIP packages are great ways for artists to make money, and ways to make a fans concert experience more memorable. Out of all the VIP packages that we’ve seen, these were easily some of the best, and if you were a fan of Strait they are pretty terrific.
