As part of this new partnership Troy Aikman will become the namesake of the exclusive, custom-built “Aikman Club” to be located inside each currently planned amphitheater in Texas and Oklahoma.

The Aikman Club is intended to offer premium seating and other high-end amenities to members and guests as part of the overall amenities and offerings at these planned venues.

Furthermore, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of VENU, J.W. Roth, will be appointed to the advisory board of EIGHT Elite Light Lager. Renowned for its crisp, refreshing taste, EIGHT stands apart as a clean, super-premium light beer brewed without corn, rice, sugars, or syrups —setting a new standard in contrast to many mass-produced light beer brands.

"As a lifelong music fan, I couldn’t be more excited to partner with VENU to launch the Aikman Clubs.” said Troy Aikman. “This collaboration perfectly aligns with my passions for community, great music, and bringing people together. Having EIGHT as a sponsor makes it even more special; sharing our beer with fans in such an incredible setting is the perfect fit. I can’t wait to see the energy and connections these venues will create."

“Our partnership with Troy Aikman is rooted in a shared passion for music and community.” says J.W. Roth, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of VENU “Troy brings the same dedication and spirit he’s known for to every experience we create together. It’s not just about the shows; it’s about creating a legacy that brings people together and resonates long after the music fades.”

This venture unites Aikman’s passion for entertainment and VENU’s dedication to delivering unforgettable live music experiences, reinforcing their shared commitment to putting the fan experience first. As a firepit suite owner and the namesake of the exclusive Aikman Club, Troy’s love for live entertainment fuels his deep connection with VENU’s mission.

VENU has announced the future development of its premium Sunset Amphitheaters in McKinney and El Paso, Texas and Oklahoma City and Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Each is intended to be a one-of-a-kind venue, offering luxury firepit suites, premium food and beverage options, state-of-the-art audio-visual technology, and the newly founded Aikman Club.
