What concerts are on the calendar in Green Bay for 2025? Here’s a few to look forward to

Rascal Flatts sold quickly. The Harry Potter Film Concert Series just added a second show. What will the NFL Draft Concert Series bring?

GREEN BAY – One of 2025’s most anticipated music announcements is still to come when the NFL Draft Concert Series is revealed.

Green Bay is hosting the NFL draft April 24-26, and festivities around the event traditionally come with a free concert by a headlining act each night. Artists who have performed at recent drafts in other cities include Weezer, Kings of Leon, Ice Cube, Motley Crue, Big Sean and Fall Out Boy.

Music fans will likely have to wait until April for details of who will be dropping in on Green Bay’s stage, but here’s a few other concerts already on the calendar for 2025.

Rascal Flatts’ Life Is a Highway Tour

How much have fans missed the experience of hearing country music trio Rascal Flatts put its soaring vocals to hits like “Fast Cars and Freedom,” “Bless the Broken Road” and “My Wish”? So much that the band’s 2025 reunion tour in celebration of its 25th anniversary sold 140,000 tickets right out of the gate when it was announced this fall.

The Resch Center stop at 7 p.m. Feb. 28 in Ashwaubenon is one of 21 dates on the tour, and like many other cities on the itinerary, it was a quick sellout. Lauren Alaina and Chris Lane open.

‘Rock Star’ movie screening and concert

Mark Wahlberg won’t be there reprising his role as Izzy Cole in “Rock Star,” but the 2001 movie that had him playing the lead singer of fictional band Steel Dragon will screen at 7 p.m. Jan. 18 at EPIC Event Center in Ashwaubenon.

The evening, a first-time event curated by the staff at EPIC, will also include a concert by Miljenko Matijevic of Steelheart and Brian Vander Ark of The Verve Pipe, who contributed to the movie soundtrack as part of Steel Dragon. National radio personality Eddie Trunk will also host a Q&A with the two musicians for the seated event.

Tickets are $25 to $125 at etix.com.

‘Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets’ in Concert

The second chapter of the Harry Potter Film Concert Series comes to The Weidner in Green Bay on Feb. 22. The Weidner Philharmonic will perform John Williams’ Grammy-nominated score as the entire film plays on a 40-foot screen. The touring concert series, which launched in 2016 with “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,” is scheduled to include more than 2,973 performances in 48 countries in 2025.

Response from the Hogwarts crowd to the originally announced 7:30 p.m. performance at The Weidner has been so robust that a second concert has been added for 1:30 p.m. Tickets are $56.25, $79, $90.25, $101.50 and $142 at ticketstaronline.com or at the venue night of.

Breaking Benjamin and Staind

The Resch Center has three co-headlining rock tours and counting on its spring calendar, including Breaking Benjamin and Staind on May 27 for their 20-city Awaken the Fallen Tour. The 5:45 p.m. concert also features sets by Wage War and Lakeview.

Tickets are $39.50, $59.50, $79.50, $99.50 and $129.50 at ticketstaronline.com, 800-895-0071 and the Resch box office.

The Resch is also hosting double bills by Papa Roach and Rise Against for their first joint tour on April 12 and Coheed and Cambria and Mastodon on June 7.
