South Florida jam fans are used to driving for their shows: up the turnpike to St. Augustine, across the state to Tampa Bay. This spring, Goose is coming to them.

The band announced on Oct. 26 that it will play Hard Rock Live in Davie on Tuesday, April 13, 2027, with a 7:30 p.m. start. The Ticketmaster listing bills it as *An Evening With Goose*, which means no opener and the band for the whole night. Hard Rock Live holds about 7,000.

The date is part of a short, concentrated spring tour. JamBase reported the run on Oct. 26: seven shows, all in Georgia and Florida, from April 9 to April 18, anchored by multi-night stands. According to TicketNews, it opens with two nights at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, Ga., on April 9 and 10, comes to Hard Rock Live on April 13, then settles in for three nights at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre from April 15 to 17 before closing at The BayCare Sound in Clearwater on April 18.

That makes the April 13 show the only South Florida stop, and the only one-off indoor arena-scale night in the middle of a run built around amphitheater residencies. For fans who can't make a weekend in St. Augustine, this is the easy one.

TicketNews also reports that one dollar from each ticket sold on the spring tour will go to a volunteer-run nonprofit that supports smaller charities in the communities Goose visits.

The spring announcement landed while the band still has a full fall ahead. Goose's fall 2026 tour begins Nov. 3 in Kansas City, and Goosemas, the band's holiday tradition, is set for Dec. 11 and 12 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. By April, the band will be coming off months of shows, and a spring run this compact tends to have a little extra urgency to it.

The "evening with" format suits this band and this room. Goose shows are built on long improvised passages and setlists that change night to night, and without an opener, there's room for two full sets to stretch out. At 7,000 capacity, Hard Rock Live is big enough to feel like an event but still an indoor theater, with a fixed roof over a sound that a lot of Goose fans prefer to hear without the wind off a lawn.

It's a Tuesday, which means some creative scheduling for anyone with a Wednesday morning commitment. The upside of a weeknight: the people who show up really want to be there.

Ticket presales ran in late October, with general sale following, so tickets are on sale now through Ticketmaster. Take the night, make the plan, and save the Wednesday for recovery.
