Concert deals, Boise? Tickets slashed to $30 all-in for 15 summer shows

When early May came and went, frugal concert fans noticed something amiss. Promoter Live Nation’s annual Concert Week sale never happened — with its bargain-priced $25 tickets.

Better late than never, something almost as good will take its place.

Calling it a “$30 Ticket to Summer,” the promoter is unveiling another temporary special. In the Boise area, 15 shows will cost 30 bucks, all-in, starting at 10 a.m. Wednesday, May 21. That price is out the door, including taxes. No code necessary.

All the concerts are at the Ford Idaho Center Amphitheater in Nampa. Limited quantities of tickets will be sold, so set that 9:59 a.m. reminder alarm. The deal will sell out faster on some shows than others.

Tickets will be available at fordidahocenter.com. (Click the link now for a preview of the sale.) Here’s the list of shows:
