OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) – The newest entertainment venue in Oshkosh has announced some of its first performers.
Menominee Nation Arena officials say Larry the Cable Guy will bring his routine to the Fox Valley on January 27, followed by fellow Blue Collar Comedy member Jeff Foxworthy on June 15.
“Basketball built the building, but entertainment is what’s going to pay for it. The entertainment portion of it has been very important to our long-term plan.”
Fox Valley Pro Basketball Association President Greg Pierce says tickets for Larry the Cable Guy go on sale at 10 am Wednesday.
Meanwhile, construction work on the new facility continues.
Menominee Nation Arena Director of Operations Mike Cluff says they’re still on track to be ready for the Wisconsin Herd’s December 1 home opener.
“It’s all coming together. All that’s happened in the last week, it’s been pretty amazing.”
Construction delays caused Herd officials to move their first three home games to Milwaukee.
