Tears for Fears books return engagement at Artpark

Tears for Fears, Gov't Mule, Loverboy headed for Artpark

Tickets on sale Friday, April 28

While Artpark & Company's 2016 musical lineup produced many popular, well-attended concerts, there was one cancelled event that put a damper on the summer season. In May, Tears for Fears had to postpone a previously announced performance due to what the band called a family illness.

Though Artpark offered A-list acts such as Dolly Parton, Pat Benatar and Barenaked Ladies, many fans, music lovers and concertgoers were disappointed they wouldn't have a chance to watch Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith perform in Lewiston.

Those fans received welcomed news on Monday, as Artpark & Company announced a return engagement with Tears for Fears. The band will perform in the Outdoor Amphitheater on Wednesday, June 14. Tickets, starting at $17, go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday.

Artpark's announcement of two additional concerts revealed the full "KeyBank Tuesdays in the Park" lineup. All shows will go on sale at the same time.
