Covenant Health Park is inching closer to the end of its inaugural sports season, and the field is nearly ready to be used for other events, including the first concert just announced by the Knoxville Smokies.
The Smokies will host the Knoxville Music Festival, the team announced Aug. 14, featuring performances by Boosie, Cupid, Pokey Bear, Lakeside and Tabu. Presented by Jammin’ 99.7 WJBE, the festival is scheduled for Oct. 18 and costs between $60 and $125 for tickets. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Tank Strickland Foundation.
“We are bringing together great music, smooth moves, and that electric tailgate-style energy to turn thestadium into the ultimate dance floor,” WJBE owner Joe Armstrong said in a news release. “Whether you are here for the rhythm, the food or the fun, you are part of history in the making.”
The Knoxville Music Festival will be the first concert held at the new stadium, which opened April 15 for the inaugural Knoxville Smokies game. Gates will open at 3 p.m. the day of the concert, and performances will start at 4 p.m. Tickets are on sale now at smokiesbaseball.com.
“This will be the first of many concerts at Covenant Health Park as we continue to get to know our Knoxville audience,” Smokies President Chris Allen said in the news release.
The Smokies have just two more homestands this season, with the last home game set for Sept. 7. One Knoxville SC, which plays at Covenant Health Park when the Smokies are away, will have its last home game immediately following Xul Beer Company’s nationally recognized Kill the Lights beer festival at the stadium Oct. 25.
