Keith Urban, Kenny Chesney to headline return of Florida Country SuperFest to Jacksonville in 2015
Florida Country Superfest, which drew more than 80,000 fans to EverBank Field in June, will return next summer with the Zac Brown Band, Kenny Chesney and Keith Urban.
The event is scheduled for Saturday, June 13, and Sunday, June 14, at EverBank Field.

The Saturday Lineup includes the Zac Brown Band, Urban, Cole Swindell, David Nail and Danielle Bradbery.

The Sunday Lineup includes Kenny Chesney, Brantley Gilbert, Tyler Farr, Colt Ford and the Swon Brothers.

Tickets will go on sale at noon Wednesday, Dec. 10, through ticketmaster.com or at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena box office. When tickets went on sale for this year’s event, they were initially sold only as two-day packages, with single-day tickets going on sale later. For the upcoming Superfest, Ticketmaster lists only two-day packages, which range from $70-$500. “Single-day tickets may go on sale in the coming weeks, pending availability,” according to a news release announcing the lineup.

A limited number of stage-front, standing-room “Golden Horseshoe” tickets will also be sold, but no price was listed for those.

This is the second year for the Florida Country Superfest, which is patterned after a similar event held in Baton Rouge. Festival Productions, the company that produces that event and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, is behind the Superfest.

A UNF study found that last year’s Florida Country Superfest drew 43,300 unique visitors, many of whom attended both nights. Of those, more than 27,000 came from outside of Duval County. The study found that the festival had a $23.2 million direct and indirect impact on the city.
