STAR WARS: In Concert
Star Wars™: In Concert is a unique multi-media event featuring music from all six of John Williams’ epic Star Wars scores. As part of its worldwide tour, it will play November 3 at 7:30pm at the Arena at Gwinnett Center.
Tickets go on sale September 25 at 10pm at the Arena box office and Ticketmaster.com.
Narrated live by Anthony Daniels (the actor who portrayed C-3PO in all six films), the production features a full symphony orchestra and choir, accompanied by specially edited footage from the films displayed on a three-story-tall, high-definition LED super-screen – one of the largest ever put on tour. The live music and film elements are synchronized in order to create a full multi-media, one-of-kind Star Wars experience.
This event has been crafted to present Star Wars from many points of view; for the first time, the full dramatic sweep of Williams’ iconic scores can be heard performed live in one evening.
Accompanying the concert is an exclusive exhibit of Star Wars costumes, props, artifacts, production artwork and specially created behind-the-scenes videos from the Lucasfilm Archives. Many of these pieces are leaving Skywalker Ranch for the first time.

Dinosaurs!
Walking with Dinosaurs the Arena Spectacular is almost here! Still not sure what to think? Check out the show's description below. Want tickets? Check out Ticketmaster.com. Tickets start at only $24.50... There is not a bad seat in the house!!
North America and will perform 8 performances at the Arena at Gwinnett Center Duluth
Ten species are represented from the entire 200 million year reign of the dinosaurs. The show includes the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the terror of the ancient terrain, as well as the Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period and Torosaurus and Utahraptor from the awesome Cretaceous. The largest of them, the Brachiosaurus is 36 feet tall, and 56 feet from nose to tail. It took a team of 50 – including engineers, fabricators, skin makers, artists and painters, and animatronic experts – a year to build the original production.
The show depicts the dinosaurs’ evolution, complete with the climatic and tectonic changes that took place, which led to the demise of many species. With almost cinematic realism, Walking with Dinosaurs has scenes of the interactions between dinosaurs, and the audience sees how carnivorous dinosaurs evolved to walk on two legs, and how the herbivores fended off their more agile predators.
The history of the world is played out with the splitting of the earth’s continents, and the transition from the arid desert of the Triassic period is given over to the lush green prairies and forces of the later Jurassic. Oceans form, volcanoes erupt, a forest catches fire -- all leading to the impact of the massive comet, which struck the earth, and forced the extinction of the dinosaurs.

KSM, David Archuleta and Demi Lovato Concert
The Gwinnett Arena had an opportunity to showcase two amazing performers, David Archuletta and Demi Lovato! KSM was also on site to give a short taste of what they do best... Perform! Fans had a wonderful time and were on hand in swarms for meet-and-greets with the performers. For the Gwinnett audience, June 29 will be a date that the fans of Demi Lovato and David Archuleta will always remember.
The fans were a large part of the success of the show. Both performers, David and Demi, were very interactive with the audience. Sing backs, conversations and the ever famous cell phone-in-the-air moment were the highlights of the performances. The fans also did a lot of dancing in their seats. Posters and shirts flanked the Arena and Demi actually gave a shout-out to all of the fans who went through the trouble of making their own concert memorabilia.
All three performers were very grateful to the audience for their support in putting on an awesome show. It is hard to believe that in Gwinnett, Georgia there can be such a broad base of fans that are super grateful for their opportunity to see these amazing performers.
Thank you so much to David Archuleta and Demi Lovato for performing a high caliber show with tons of fan interactions!
