Close to 2,000 tickets have been sold for the spring concert, featuring Panic! at the Disco, as of 4 p.m. Wednesday.

Tickets were made available to the public Wednesday.

Before, tickets were only sold to students.

Canaan Daniels, a graduate assistant in the Student Life Office, said 581 tickets were sold to the public Wednesday.

In total, more than 1,980 tickets have been sold for the concert, with 1,351 tickets sold to students.

“Ticket sales go all the way until the concert, where they can be bought at the concert if it is not sold out by then,” Daniels said.

Panic! at the Disco will be performing at Eastern on April 15 in Lantz Arena.

The concert is scheduled for 8 p.m. and will feature a special musical guest, but there is no update as to who the special guest will be.

Panic! at the Disco formed in 2004 and has had five studio albums.

The band released their latest album, “Death of a Bachelor,” Jan. 15, 2016.

It was announced on the band’s website that both Panic! at the Disco and Weezer would begin touring this summer with special guest Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness.

Ticket sales and concert dates for the tour can be found on the band’s website.

Panic! at the Disco announced on Wednesday that they will be playing at Summer Sonic 2016 in August.
