Gaelic Storm tickets

Tickets were still available this morning for Gaelic Storm’s performance Friday at Albert Taylor Hall.

“On a 1,200-seat theater, I think we have about 300 left,” Emporia Arts Council Executive Director Melissa Windsor said.

Windsor anticipates a full house for the Celtic music stars’ 7:30 p.m. show. She said ticket-buyers were coming from outside Emporia for the show, including from Nebraska and Arkansas.

Tickets can be purchased for $22 at the Arts Council, 618 Mechanic St., or at the Sweet Granada, 805 Commercial St.
