DAYGLOW “The World’s Largest Paint Party” will be back in the area from 7:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. Saturday in the Lansing Center, 333 E. Michigan Ave., in Lansing. DAYGLOW was last in Lansing on Oct. 21.

Following the show’s sold-out BLU Tour, which traveled
to 50 cities, promoters decided to create the L!FE IN COLOR Tour, which started in January and again includes 50 stops throughout the country.

Unlike DAYGLOW’s last Lansing event, tickets to this show are not sold out.

General admission tickets can be purchased on DAYGLOW’s website for $45 each.

Find your match

Students who still are looking for a valentine can attend a University Activities Board
speed dating event at 9 p.m. Saturday in the parlors on the second floor of the Union.

There is no cost to attend, and there will be drinks and cookies after the speed dating portion. The first 100 daters will get a goodie bag when they enter, and three students will have a chance to win NCG Cinemas prizes.
