Trevor Noah and rock band Daughtry (headed by former American Idol winner Chris Daughtry) are among the upcoming acts at Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana's new Hard Rock Live venue.

The Trevor Noah "Back to Abnormal" Tour is coming to Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana's new Hard Rock Live venue on Saturday, Aug, 13. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Tickets ($79.50 and up) go on sale Friday, April 15, at 10 a.m. CT.

Noah is the most successful comedian in Africa and is the host of the Emmy-winning The Daily Show, on Comedy Central. In addition, he has hosted the Grammys twice; and has written, produced and starred in 11 comedy specials, including his most recent, Trevor Noah: Son of Patricia, which launched in November 2018 on Netflix.

In addition, "Daughtry: The Dearly Beloved Tour" is coming to Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana's new Hard Rock Live venue on Friday, July 29. Doors open at 6 p.m. Tickets ($62 and up) also go on sale Friday, April 15, at 10 a.m. CT.

Windy City Times previously noted that out lesbian comedian/actress Wanda Sykes will be at the venue during Pride Month—on Friday, June 17.

A week later (Friday, June 24), R&B superstar Chaka Khan will perform. Tickets to that show are $67.50-$110 each.
