Default Sumter County Fairgrounds - Shows

I went to see The Nowhere Band at the Sumter County Fairgrounds in Bushnell on Feb 7 and it was wonderful. The band played Beatles music for a little over 2 hours. Unfortunately, attendance was low. (I think they played at Savannah not long ago.)

The Fairgrounds is having two more shows that also sound good: Tribute to Neil Diamond on Feb 21 and Tribute to Frankie Valli on Feb 28. Both shows sound great. Just wanted to put in a good word for the Fairgrounds and their attempts to get some good shows. The building is large and they have a place to buy some snacks and beverages.

You can probably buy directly from the Fairgrounds. I bought my tickets through The Villages Box Office.

Enjoy!

Bogie,
are the seats comfortable? When I hear "fairgrounds" I think "bleachers."
