CHARLOTTE, N.C., March 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Carowinds is thrilled to announce a live music festival series this summer.
Live music will remix the park experience with the new Carowinds Summer Music Fest amplified by Coke Studio™.
Exhilarating live music will remix the entire park experience with the new Carowinds Summer Music Fest amplified by Coke Studio™. This multi-weekend music festival promises a memorable experience with headline performances at the Paladium, the iconic on-site amphitheater, and local bands and emerging artists performing throughout Carowinds.
The festival features a star-studded lineup with renowned artists including Flo Rida, two-time GRAMMY® Award winner LeAnn Rimes, two-time GRAMMY Award-nominated Skillet, and more artist announcements coming in the following weeks. In partnership with Coca-Cola®, guests will find all-new music-related activations each weekend of the summer music festival with more than 30 artists set to perform.
"As the ultimate destination for fun in the Carolinas, we're gearing up for an exhilarating summer of music and thrills with the all-new Carowinds Summer Music Fest amplified by Coke Studio™," Manny Gonzalez, Carowinds vice president and general manager, said. "Get ready for 10 days of sensational performances that will make Carowinds the place to be this summer. What's more, these incredible shows are free with your park admission, guaranteeing a summer filled with entertainment and iconic thrills."
The Carowinds Paladium, the iconic on-site amphitheater, will come alive to host the series of concerts on five select weekends. The venue will again be the heart of entertainment at the park.
Since its inception in 1975, the Paladium has welcomed cultural icons such as Billy Joel, Bob Dylan, Charlie Daniels, James Taylor, Mary J. Blige and the Temptations. Carowinds was among the first amusement parks to establish a permanent concert facility. In 1991, an expansion project transformed the amphitheater into a standalone concert venue.
The Carowinds Summer Music Fest, amplified by Coke Studio™, will be included with park admission.
Season passholders can enjoy all these performances as part of their pass benefits. The 2024 Silver Season Pass offers unlimited visits to Carowinds, including access to Carolina Harbor Waterpark and free parking through Labor Day, September 2.
"Coca-Cola is thrilled to partner with Carowinds to bring this exciting and entertaining experience to Carolina music fans," Valencia Bivens, senior vice president, strategic partnerships, Coca-Cola North America, said.
