NebraskaLand Days has announced that Koe Wetzel and Jon Pardi will headline the 2027 Viaero Summer Jam Concert Series in North Platte, Nebraska. The announcement, made Monday, includes a significant reconfiguration of the Wild West Arena seating and a new tiered pricing structure for the upcoming June 25-26 concert weekend.

Why you should go

  • Diverse musical styles: Fans can enjoy a mix of Wetzel's country-rock and Pardi's traditional honky-tonk sounds.
  • Improved floor space: The removal of the old "party pit" provides more room for general admission attendees to move around.
  • Expanded Saturday lineup: Saturday's show features additional performances by Ian Munsick and Presley Barker.
  • Part of a larger festival: The concerts are held during a 10-day celebration that includes PRCA rodeo and community parades.

What is changing at the arena?

To manage large crowds of up to 10,000 people, organizers are eliminating the specialized "party pit" section located behind the front-stage area. This space will now function as general admission floor area to reduce crowding. Additionally, the grandstands will feature two distinct price levels: lower reserved and upper reserved. The premium Golden Circle section will remain in its current position directly in front of the stage.
