Chicago, Dave Matthews and the Zac Brown Band are just some of the acts coming to the Daily’s Place Amphitheatre during its inaugural season.
Construction on the 5,500 seat amphitheater and 94,000 square foot covered flex field is phase two of the $90 million investment in EverBank Field.
Officials announced on Friday the lineup for upcoming performances at the new Daily's Place amphitheater.
The first concert at the downtown Jacksonville venue will be held May 27.

Daily's Place is a partnership between the Jaguars and the City of Jacksonville.
Mark Lamping, president of Bold Events, the company paying for the acts, said building the event venue will secure the future of NFL football in Jacksonville.
“It’s also going to support us in our No. 1 goal and that’s to make sure that we have a stable NFL franchise here in Jacksonville forever,” Lamping said.
The city is hoping the amphitheater will bring more than music to downtown.
“We want to do as much as we can to have more people work downtown, to have more people visit down town, more people live downtown," Lamping said.
With the variety of scheduled acts ranging from Kidz Bop to 311, the city said the venue won’t just bring business, it’ll create jobs.
In addition to Daily’s, Lamping introduced four new corporate sponsors on Friday.
All are headquartered in Jacksonville -- FIS, St. Vincent’s HealthCare and Swisher International have each signed on as Founding Partners.
Rimrock was also announced as the “Official Backstage Partner” of Daily’s Place.
