AUBURN HILLS, MI. (Top40 Charts/ Palace Sports & Entertainment) - Palace Sports & Entertainment (PS&E) announces the 2007 schedules for DTE
Energy Music Theatre and Meadow Brook
Music Festival (combined schedule attached). More than 90 events are on the schedule, including summer concerts at The Palace. Additional shows will be announced as tour plans develop.

"Our 2007 lineup continues this tradition. You will still see the best of the big-name acts touring this summer and we have worked hard to provide attractive pricing for those on a budget."
During the summer of 2006, the three PS&E venues combined to attract more than one million concert fans, led by DTE Energy Music Theatre which hosted 77 shows and remained the nation's most-attended amphitheatre for the 16th consecutive year with more than 830,000 guests.
Belle Tire is returning in 2007 for its second summer to sponsor the concert series of DTE Energy Music Theatre and Meadow Brook Music Festival. Michigan's largest independent tire retailer will support the schedules with in-store promotions and giveaways.
PS&E ownership includes The Palace and DTE Energy Music Theatre, as well as the management of Meadow Brook Music Festival on the campus of Oakland University. Combined, PS&E's Michigan venues average 300 events and 3.5 million guests annually.
The Palace has been voted Arena of the Year eight times by Performance magazine, twice by Pollstar magazine and is listed annually among North America's top-grossing arenas. Voted "Best Outdoor Concert Venue" in Pollstar's 2000 Readers' Poll, DTE Energy Music Theatre has been listed as the nation's most attended amphitheater by Amusement Business/Billboard each of the 16 years of PS&E ownership.
PS&E also owns the leasehold rights to the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, Florida. The venue is a 1999 and 2004 recipient of the Prime Site Award by Facilities & Event Management magazine and is one of North America's top- grossing arenas annually.
