FORT MYERS, Fla. - April 16, 2019 - PRLog -- World-renowned artists from throughout Europe, Russia, Siberia and Poland will travel to Fort Myers in 2020 to perform for the Fort Myers Community Concert Association in its 71st annual concert series.

Tickets are now on sale for the five performances, which organizers say bring the best in classical opera, ballet, and symphony performances to Southwest Florida.  All performances will be at the Barbara B. Mann Hall on the Florida SouthWestern State College campus in Fort Myers.

"We anticipate that we'll be sold out by the time the series begins in January," said Community Concert Association President Mary Lee Mann.  "Where else can you see not one, but five performances for what you would expect to pay for just one?"

All five concerts are included in one ticket price, which ranges from $165 for prime orchestra and mezzanine seats to $155 for other orchestra and mezzanine seats, $85 for lower balcony seating and just $65 for upper balcony.  Most mezzanine seating already is sold out, Mann said.

"We have been fortunate this year to attract some of the most outstanding artists in the world today, thanks to the generosity of our major underwriters and supporters," Mann said.
