SeaWorld Orlando’s Bands, Brew & BBQ Festival is taking place four sizzling weekends in March with new headline acts announced each week.
Announced today are the headline performers for the fourth and final weekend of the event: one of the top comedians in the country, Bill Engvall, and country music superstar Alan Jackson.
Scheduled future performances now include:
· Saturday, March 21: Travis Tritt
· Sunday, March 22: Larry the Cable Guy
· Saturday, March 28: Bill Engvall
· Sunday, March 29: Alan Jackson
The event honors America’s Heroes and features live concerts from top classic rock and country bands and artists, tasty barbecue and thirst-quenching beer, and is included with regular park admission. Event festivities begin at 11:30 a.m. each weekend, with concerts at 4 p.m. this weekend, and 5 p.m. next weekend.*
The celebration salutes America’s Heroes with military discounts for both active military and veterans, patriotic offerings and a partnership with the USO Central Florida, an organization that has been lifting the spirits of America’s troops and their families for more than 70 years.
The patriotic-themed USO Garden will offer a relaxing place away from the crowds that reflects the spirit of the renowned organization, viewing of the concerts on large flat screens and refreshments. Guests can get up close with animals and kids can work on masterpieces at coloring stations, take photos with SeaWorld costume characters, learn from educators and play interactive games. In addition, this area offers messaging about the USO while music that speaks to the history of the USO provides a nostalgic atmosphere to the area.
