ZZ Top will perform at the Mobile Saenger Theatre in March, joining a growing spring lineup at the historic venue.
Other early 2025 shows at the Saenger include celebrity chef Alton Brown, bluesman Joe Bonamassa and comedians from the “Kill Tony” podcast.
The March 6 ZZ Top show was announced Monday by the Oak View Group, which operates the Saenger, the Arthur R. Outlaw Mobile Convention Center and the Mobile Civic Center. According to zztop.com, it’ll follow a March 5 performance at the Dothan Civic Center. The band also has a March 23 show at the Montgomery Performing Arts Centre on the books.
