Recently, we were made aware of ticket packages for Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood concerts in Omaha, Nebraska.  $5,000.00 is the price of the top package after looking it up on the Ticketmaster website. Those of us at MinnesotaCountry.com, and many of our fans don’t spend that much in bills a month let alone a concert ticket package!  See the full package below, and let us know what you think!

Garth has always been, and will always be great to his fans, especially when it comes to ticket prices.  He does what he can to make sure the costs are low, and equal for all at every show.  The prices below are not your standard ticket prices, yet a limited amount of VIP packages.  We see this with many artists, especially in different genres of music, and this is not intended to dish on Garth Brooks in any way.

The top package at a price of $5,000 (for 2 tickets and the package below)

Double Multi-Platinum VIP Package
. Two (2) Premium reserved tickets with one (1) Premium parking pass
. Pre-show, seated dinner in the private Ghosttunes VIP room, with open bar
. A private exhibit of Garth Brooks memorabilia/traveling museum
. Two (2) pair of JBL headphones to listen to live, high-definition audio direct from the soundboard mix during the concert (these are yours to keep)
. Two (2) exclusive VIP merchandise packages, and the option to purchase additional merchandise at a 40% discount
. One (1) custom acoustic guitar personalized by Garth Brooks
. Two (2) copies of Trisha’s Table: My Feel-Good Favorites for a Balanced Life, autographed by Trisha Yearwood
. Two (2) Garth Brooks Digital Bundle. This digital only bundle includes the NEW Man Against Machine Album, the NEW DOUBLE LIVE – 25th Anniversary Edition, AND all eight iconic studio albums, AND the 2015 studio album release
. Two (2) Trisha Yearwood, Prizefighter: Hit after Hit album
. Two (2) VIP Laminates
. Onsite concierge

Our mistake, after the $2.00 per ticket fee, your total would be $5,004.00

If you were looking to go another route (alone) you could also save a substantial amount of money by picking the other package.

With this package you’d be going alone at a price of $3,500 for one (1) person.

. One (1) Premium reserved ticket, One (1) Premium parking pass

Our mistake again! After the $2.00 service fee your total would be $3,502.00
