LADY LAKE, Fla. /CitizenWire/ — Tickets starting at $35 are still available to see award-winning country-music mother and daughter legends Naomi and Wynonna Judd take their final Central Florida bow on the Last Encore Tour, October 15, 2011, as they headline The Grand Oaks Festival featuring The Judds, according to Alliance Healthcare Foundation President Ted Williams.
Gates will open at 10 a.m. for the music festival, which will benefit the non-profit Foundation which provides philanthropic support to Leesburg Regional Medical Center and The Villages Health System. The Judds are scheduled to appear at 3 p.m. at the 400-acre Grand Oaks Resort located midway between Orlando and Ocala and just eight miles from The Villages.
Opening acts include The Calhouns, McKinley and Beggs, Rob Nichols, Norman Lee, and Donna Moore.
General seating tickets are $35. Preferred and VIP seating are available $60 and $125. All major credit cards are accepted. For directions to the resort, visit http://www.TheGrandOaks.com . Tickets are also available through http://www.ticketmaster.com or by calling 1-800-745-3000.
"Naomi and Wynonna won the Country Music Association's Vocal Group/Duo of the Year Award every year from 1985 to 1991," said Williams. "Then, Naomi was diagnosed with a serious illness that cost her health, her ability to tour, and nearly her life. Today, she is healthier than ever and touring has re-energized her relationship with her daughter. Together, they've given 'Juddheads' a chance to celebrate their music, and exposed a whole new generation to their breakout hits including "Mama, He's Crazy," "Why Not Me," "Love Can Build a Bridge," "Girls Night Out," and "Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout the Good Old Days)."
