No one should be shocked by the popularity of Florida Strawberry Festival headliners, who could probably sell out arenas as easily as they do the shed in Plant City (alum of the festival includes Johnny Cash and Taylor Swift).

Reba McEntire was last in town for a 2022 set at Amalie Arena, and has played the barn at least five times since 1987. Donโ€™t be surprised to get a mini acoustic set from the 69-year-old country music queen should she choose to promote her book and companion album, Not That Fancy.

Reba’s Florida Strawberry Festival set on Friday, Feb. 28 is sold-out, but she’s just part of a weekend of entertainment that includes Home Free and Lauren Daigle.
