High-profile acts from different eras and different genres will light up the Interlochen Center for the Arts’ summer concert series in 2025.
The soulful and funky legendary group Earth, Wind & Fire, bluegrass stars Alison Krauss & Union Station with Jerry Douglas, and a cappella favorites Straight No Chaser will play the series at northern Michigan’s Kresge Auditorium — the first three summer concerts announced today by Interlochen, with more shows set to be revealed weekly over the next two months.

Tickets — which start at $33 to $63 depending on the act — go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday.
The Straight No Chaser vocal group will play the series on July 24 with O-Town as part of their “The 90s Part 2” summer tour, building on their performance legacy and sales of more than 2 million albums.
Earth Wind & Fire, meanwhile, will unfurl some of their biggest pop and R&B hits — from “Shining Star” to “September” — during their Aug. 5 tour stop at Kresge Auditorium.
And Krauss — who’s won more than two dozen Grammy Awards during her 40-year career — reunites with Dobro sensation Douglas after a 10-year hiatus to perform at Interlochen on Aug. 18, touring behind a new album, “Arcadia,” being released at the end of March.
Maureen Oleson, Interlochen’s director of communications, said more than 20 concerts are on tap for the 2025 season, with the next set of shows announced on Feb. 17.
