Tommy Emmanuel Comes to Durham Apr. 16

Tickets On Sale Now

DURHAM, NC — August 23, 2021— Tommy Emmanuel comes to the Carolina Theatre in Downtown Durham on Saturday, April 16, 2022. Tickets to see Tommy Emmanuel start at $39.50 and are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com and at the venue’s website, carolinatheatre.org.

Anytime you talk to any of Tommy Emmanuel’s fans, whether musicians or civilians, invariably they will speak of not one but two qualities that define his greatness. The first, predictably, is his extraordinary guitar playing. Considered by those in the know to be among this planet’s greatest guitarists, his playing is simply miraculous, as it would take three musicians, or more, to do what Tommy does solo. Who else, for example, when playing “Day Tripper,” can lay down the rhythm part, dig into the riff and sing the melody all at once on just one acoustic guitar?

This show will require fans to provide either proof of a negative test result within 72 hours of the event OR full vaccination for entry.

As the Carolina Theatre of Durham welcomes back guests for live events, the nonprofit venue is closely following all public health guidelines set by the City of Durham. Currently, all visitors are required to wear a mask except for when actively eating or drinking.
