PHILADELPHIA — Jan. 26, 2023 — Get ready to groove when the Ohio Players, pioneers of street funk and underground R&B, come to Rivers Casino Philadelphia’s Event Center on Saturday, March 25, at 8 p.m. The band rose to prominence in the 1970s with such hits as “Fire” and “Love Rollercoaster,” and they have since produced more than a dozen albums and earned 14 gold and platinum awards. Tickets are on sale now and start at $39.

They also have appeared on many national television programs. Despite their success, they have not slowed down and continue to entertain crowds all over the world.

“We’re excited to have the Ohio Players bring their unique brand of funk to Rivers Casino Philadelphia,” said Justin Moore, general manager of the casino. “Their lively show will be sure to get the crowd on its feet.”
