Allman Betts Family Revival Brings a “Concert of the Ages” to Van Wezel in December

Posted

SARASOTA — The Allman Betts Family Revival is celebrating a decade of music with A Decade of Revival, a special live performance honoring the legendary catalogs that have shaped rock ’n’ roll. 

The tour comes to The Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on Sunday, December 13, at 7 p.m. Tickets go on sale Friday, August 21, at 10 a.m.

What started as a 70th birthday celebration for Gregg Allman in 2017 has now become a yearly tradition featuring some of the finest musicians on the planet. Devon Allman and Duane Betts honor their families' legacies, evoking the haunting spirit of the greats that came before them by gathering a world-class ensemble cast à la "The Last Waltz," with the songs bursting with new fervor nationwide.

The Revival stage has seen the likes of Slash, Jason Isbell, Steve Earle, Sierra Ferrell, and Marcus King sitting in while legends like Jimmy Hall, Robert Randolph & Amanda Shires have hopped on the bus for the entire coast-to-coast 2026 jaunt.

Leaning on the “decade” theme, the first set of the show will honor the original lineup and focus on songs from the 1970s. The second set will recapture the electricity of the 1990s era by focusing on songs from the Allman Brothers' renaissance. In celebrating this 10th year, this will be a concert for the ages.

Tickets can be purchased at VanWezel.org, by calling 941-263-6799 or by visiting the Veteran Air Box Office at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall Monday through Friday between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Groups of 10 or more should contact 941-263-6726.
