Zac Brown Band Sells-Out Citi Field, Fenway Park in Record-Breaking Weekend

(New York, NY): This weekend, Zac Brown Band played three sold-out stadium shows to a total of 111,597 fans: 38,778 people at NYC's Citi Field on August 19th, and a combined 72,819 people at Boston's Fenway Park on August 20th & 21st as a part of their 2016 'BLACK OUT THE SUN' tour.

The multi-platinum artists broke three new records at Fenway Park this weekend which included the most tickets sold at a single concert, the most tickets sold over two nights of concerts by the same artist and the first band to sell-out seven consecutive shows over three years. During their Boston shows, the three-time GRAMMY-winning band performed a special "no-repeat" weekend with a different set each night (no song repeated over the course of the two nights). Fans who were not able to attend the concerts were able to watch them live as Pay-Per-View webcasts at nugs.tv and in the nugs.net app for AppleTV.

• The band's debut album, 'The Foundation' is certified 5X platinum.
