Sony Pictures Television and Right Angle Entertainment have announced that veteran game show host and TV personality Jay Flats will serve as host when Wheel of Fortune LIVE!® visits the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on December 17. Tickets are available now by calling the Veteran Air Box Office at the Van Wezel at 941-263-6799, by visiting the box office in person or VanWezel.org. Groups of 10 or more should contact 941-263-6726.
Tickets start at $43 and a VIP package is also available to give fans early access, premiere seats, pre-show lounge access and photo opportunities to spin the wheel.
Flats, a seasoned game show host, will make his Wheel of Fortune LIVE! debut later this year. Flats’ lifelong love for game shows launched a career full of energy and unexpected stages. His charisma has landed him cameo appearances on hit shows like Hell’s Kitchen and Hairspray Live, and he has the unique distinction of hosting, The Game Plane, a game show at 35,000 feet!
At Wheel of Fortune LIVE!, audience members will be randomly selected to come up on stage to spin the famous Wheel and show their skill by calling consonants, buying vowels and solving puzzles for an opportunity to win fantastic prizes, including vacations to destinations like Paris and Hawaii, or cash prizes up to $10,000.
New this year, attendees will have the opportunity to get a head start in the audition process. Exclusive applications will be available to submit on site that will put applicants directly into the producers’ audition queue. If successful, they will appear alongside Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White on the televised version of the game show.
The Wheel of Fortune LIVE! tour will travel to more than 60 cities across North America for more than 80 total performances, thanks to the strategic efforts of United Talent Agency (UTA.) UTA assembled a powerhouse lineup of several dozen top-tier regional promoters to bring the iconic game show experience to fans nationwide.
