FIELD PASSES SOLD OUT
LIMITED NUMBER OF GA STADIUM SEATS STILL AVAILABLE
FOR PREMIER DESTINATION ROCK FESTIVAL
MAY 16 & 17
Each day will feature more than 18 bands on three stages, encompassing over 11 hours of non-stop music. This year’s nationally renowned ROCK ON THE RANGE festival will be highlighted by performances from some of rock’s biggest artists including Mötley Crüe, Slipknot, Alice In Chains, Avenged Sevenfold and Korn. Presented by Right Arm Entertainment, AEG LIVE and Crew Stadium, the two-day, multi-stage music and lifestyle event drew 30,000 people in its inaugural year in 2007 and more than 55,000 people in 2008. Event features this year include the addition of a third stage, the Jägermeister Music Stage, on-stage fan platforms for contest winners and an expanded vendor village.
ROCK ON THE RANGE has also expanded its “Go Green” initiative in 2009 and is the first festival to have an online recycling trade-in rewards component. Fans can log on to www.rotrgogreen.com to learn how they can recycle old cell phones and mp3 players to earn “Swag Bucks,” digital dollars that will allow them to “purchase” VIP tickets to ROTR, a 2007 event poster or a 2008 festival t-shirt.
