The Avett Brothers Announce Drive-In Concert At Charlotte Motor Speedway

The Avett Brothers will soon return to the stage. Charlotte Motor Speedway will host the band for a drive-in style concert on August 29 in Concord, North Carolina.

The concert will be the first for the band in six months and comes one day after the release of The Third Gleam, a new studio album. Room for over 1,500 cars will be available and the show will abide by social-distancing guidelines. The Avett Brothers will play on the backstretch of the racing surface with audio broadcast via FM radio and video aired on the venue’s 16,000 square-foot screen, one of the largest in the world.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, July 17 via the event’s website on a per-car basis. Members of the band’s Avett Guild fan club will have first dibs on Thursday, July 16.
