Country music star Hunter Hayes is set to perform at Kent State University’s Memorial Athletic and Convocation (MAC) Center on Oct. 23 at 8 p.m.

The concert is open to faculty, staff, students and the general public. Tickets are currently on sale online and at the MAC Center. Students must have a student ID to purchase tickets. Floor seats are available to students only and are $25. Upper-level student seats are $15, and upper-level general public seats are $35. There is a limit of two tickets per person.

“We knew we had to bring somebody who was country because of the lack of country singers we have had in the past,” says Kevin Otubu, director of programming for Undergraduate Student Government at Kent State. “Hunter is a singer around students’ age, with a more up-to-beat country style that seems to be the new trend in what college students like, so it was an easy choice for us when we were looking at acts.”

Doors open at 7 p.m. Country music singers Ryan Lafferty and Matthew Pinkham will accompany Hayes.
