Taylor Swift Experience: Free Concert Coming To Venue 1012

OSWEGO, IL — While Taylor Swift is traveling the world with her "Eras Tour," a Taylor Swift tribute show is bringing her music to Oswego.

"Calling all Swifties! School's out, and it's time to shake it off with family and friends," officials said of the Sparks Fly: The Taylor Swift Experience coming to Venue 1012 June 6.

Joliet native Samantha "Sammy Jo" Masokas is at the helm of the show that pays tribute "in true adoration of one of the best catalogs and talents in modern music." In fact, the first song the singer ever performed in public was Taylor Swift's "Teardrops on My Guitar," according to the bio on her website.

Concert-goers are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to save seats on the lawn at 1012 Station Drive when doors open at 6 p.m. Local food trucks will be serving a variety of food, and cold beverages will be available for purchase.

Unlike previous summers, outside food will be allowed at the Sparks Fly show. Outside beverages, including water, still won't be permitted.

The show, part of Venue 1012's Free Thursday Night Concerts series, is expected to run until 9 p.m.
