DISCOVERY PARK PLANS MEMORIAL DAY CONCERT, FAMILY EVENT

Memorial Day Weekend Concert to be Held at Discovery Park of America

Union City, Tenn. – Discovery Park of America is having a special outdoor concert at the Train Depot Stage on Sat., May 29, 2021 to kick off Memorial Day Weekend.

This sunset concert sponsored by Final Flight Outfitters is a fundraiser for both Discovery Park and Special Ops Xcursions, a nonprofit that offers guided outdoor adventures to active duty Special Operations Forces (SOF) service members. Admission to the concert is a donation of any amount.

“We are excited to partner with another nonprofit in the area that is doing something special for our active military members,” said Scott Williams, president and CEO of Discovery Park. “Of course, all of us are also grateful to finally have live music and outdoor events back on our calendar.”

Performing that evening will be Electric Gumbo and Hinson Hill. Guests will enjoy family-friendly activities while listening to the music. Also included will be fishing, food trucks and a cash bar.

“Guests of all ages will enjoy the first live music event that we have had since last summer,” said Lauren Jones, special events director for the park. “We are also booking more and more corporate meetings, weddings and parties with bands, as well as having our own events at the park, such as the upcoming cruise-in, the Antique Tractor Show and the Discovery Dash 5K and 10K.”

Gates for the concert open at 6 p.m. and music starts at 7 p.m. on Sat., May 29, 2021. Admission is a donation to Special Ops Xcursions. The Memorial Day Concert is sponsored by Final Flight Outfitters.
