What to expect

Billy Corgan's catalog runs three decades deep, so expect 1979, Tonight Tonight, and Bullet with Butterfly Wings alongside newer material. Alt-rock nostalgia crowds show up strong in this market.

Before you go

Beaches Oktoberfest runs the same weekend out at Jax Beach, so plan around split traffic if your group is doing both. Clear bag policy at the arena, doors about an hour before showtime.
