The Samples
About this Event
Tonight's show with The Samples has been rescheduled for August 5th.
Given today’s unpredictable weather conditions, The Samples will unfortunately be unable to perform as scheduled. Due to travel and other logistical considerations, they needed to make this difficult decision in advance rather than at showtime.
The concert has been rescheduled for August 5th at 6:30 PM at Fort Collins Nursery.
All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date. If you are unable to attend the rescheduled performance, you may request a refund through your Eventbrite account. If you need assistance, please contact us at [email protected].
