Newsboys announce Wicomico Youth & Civic Center show

Grammy®-nominated and Platinum-selling band Newsboys announces the 2017 extension of the Love Riot Tour, which sees them perform their hit songs live in more than 50 additional cities nationwide.

The Newsboys will perform in Salisbury at the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center on Feb. 11. The show begins at 6 p.m. and tickets start at $18/ticket for group sales, with different ticket options that include the friends and family 4-pack at $20/ticket, reserved for $25/ticket, premium package for $45/ticket and the Ultimate VIP Experience Package at $100/ticket.

The tour will also feature a never-seen-before, all-new theatrical experience, God’s Not Dead LIVE! Rivals. Written and produced by John and Sarah Bolin (“The Thorn”) and featuring original songs from Juan Otero (“Born Again,” “Kings & Queens”), Rivals brings an ensemble cast of singers, actors and dancers together to answer the question “Can God really make a difference?” and take the audience on a journey to an infamous music venue where stars are born, rivals are met and no one leaves the way they came in.

"With this tour, we wanted to try something brand new, something different,” said Michael Tait, lead singer for Newsboys. “There's something about drama, seeing scenes acted out, lived out, right in front of you, that has a different effect. We are very excited about sharing this new theatrical experience with our fans.”

Pre-sale tickets for the February and March 2017 dates go on sale Dec. 8 with code LOVE, and tickets will go on sale to the general public Dec. 9.
