Beyoncé will join Jay Z on Friday in Ohio at a get-out-the-vote concert for Hillary Clinton, a source who overheard the news told CBS News.



Clinton will be joined by the music superstars at a rally at Cleveland State University heading into the final weekend before Election Day. The Clinton campaign is making an aggressive push to urge Ohioans to vote early.

Starting Friday, tickets will be distributed at the below location from 8:00am to 6:00pm.



3030 Euclid Avenue

Cleveland, OH 44115



On Saturday, tickets will be available from 8:00am to 4:00pm.

On Sunday, tickets will be available from 1:00pm to 5:00pm.

On Tuesday, the Clinton campaign officially announced the concert would be held in Cleveland on Nov. 4, just four days before the election.



“Jay Z will be joined at the concert by special guests to encourage unity and urge Ohioans to support Clinton by voting early or on Election Day,” the Clinton camp said in a statement.



Tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis from Friday.

The concert — perhaps the centerpiece of the “closing argument” strategy built to turn out this group — would be a major coup for the Clinton campaign, which has struggled to excite young black voters. It’s a key part of the coalition they need to build to defeat Trump in several battleground states, but especially Ohio where she has trailed more consistently than in most swing states. High turnout among younger voters of color would make it virtually impossible for Trump to win.



Senior Democrats, meanwhile, have signaled publicly that Clinton has indicated staff should do whatever it takes to turn out young black voters and the concert is viewed as one of the last major voter mobilization moves the campaign will make before election day.

Update: There aren't many people who could join the lineup at tonight's Jay-Z concert who would take top billing over Hova and Hillary Clinton. One of those people, of course, would be Jay-Z's wife. And according to a (very loosely sourced) report from CBS , Beyonce will in fact be part of the show tonight at the Wolstein Center.***(Updated 11/1/16): Hillary Clinton will make an appearance this Friday evening at the free Jay-Z show at the Wolstein Center at CSU.

He, along with LeBron, also headlined an Obama rally at the Woltein Center four years before that. (One would assume King James will probably make an appearance at this one too.)That's all good news. The bad news, for now: no details have been announced yet.
