About

Blake Shelton, Kid Rock, Miranda Lambert, Keith Urban, Brooks & Dunn, Thomas Rhett, Hank Williams Jr., Martina McBride, Kip Moore, Dan + Shay, Jamey Johnson, Chris Janson, Chase Rice, Travis Tritt, Maddie & Tae, A Thousand Horses, Colt Ford, Easton Corbin  Eric Paslay, Kristian Bush, Pat Green, Margo Price, The Swon Brothers, Maggie Rose, Aubrie Sellers, Mark Chesnutt, William Michael Morgan, Mo Pitney, LANco, Asleep at the Wheel, Simba Jordan and more are all set for the 2nd annual Country 500 – The Great American Music Fest at Daytona, to be held Memorial Day Weekend, May 26, 27, & 28, 2017 at Daytona International Speedway! The “World Center of Racing” will again become the World Center of Entertainment over the Memorial Day holiday! 

The inaugural Country 500 in 2016 drew an amazing 75,000 country music-craving fans from across the country to Daytona and was met with rave reviews after the event. Country 500 festivities are spread over three days and nights of the holiday weekend, with music programmed on two performance stages: the massive Country 500 Stage as well as the more intimate Bluebird Theatre Tent.  One of the biggest hits of the inaugural Country 500 was the ability to actually camp out in the infield, literally inside the festival for the entire weekend.  In 2017, fans will once again be offered a full-range of camping opportunities for virtually any budget, from pitching a tent to deluxe RV locations.  Fans at the festival will also have the opportunity to get up close and personal with some of their favorite country stars at artist meet-and-greets located throughout pit road and the garages. Numerous other features — a select festival menu sold from food booths and food trucks; carnival rides; arcade games; cooling water elements; country-and-western merchandise; and more — will all be a part of the festival, as Country 500 once again transforms racing’s greatest venue into country music heaven.

“Country 500 is all revved up and ready to rock!” said Festival Producer Quint Davis.  “Year two of this only-in-Daytona super fest will once again feature something for everyone, from the hottest superstars Blake, Kid Rock, Miranda, Keith Urban and Thomas Rhett, to the most classic of country legends Hank Williams Jr., Martina McBride and the legendary country duo Brooks & Dunn, who will give a rare performance.   A total of more than 30 incredible artists will help create an unforgettable holiday weekend for fans in the magical world that is Daytona International Speedway.”

“After a successful inaugural event, the lineup of artists for the 2017 Country 500 music festival is going to be another who’s who of entertainers,” Daytona International Speedway President Chip Wile said. “The Country 500 has quickly become one of the most anticipated festivals of the year and we encourage guests to start making their plans to spend the Memorial Day Weekend enjoying all the sights and sounds at the ‘World Center of Racing.’ ”

Three-day weekend passes, VIP packages, camping and travel packages are on sale now through Ticketmaster and Country500.com.

    Keith Urban was unbelievably awesome!!!

    by PrissyMissi on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    All of the artists were fabulous. All unique. A high percentage were true entertainers in addition to their art. They persevered during the impossible heat - except Hank Williams Jr. He played 4 or 5 songs, then he and his band abruptly left the stage. It was an awesome venue. It was well organized. Security oversight was phenomenal. There were a couple of unruly fans which were removed quickly and quietly. First Aid was also quick to respond to a couple of folks. Grade A event !

    If you don't like this you're either deaf or dead!

    by M3NSB on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    Great atmosphere with great entertainment. All artists were very good. Stand out performances by Jake Owens, Thomas Rhett, Blake Shelton, Keith Urban. I am a Kid Rock fan but he did not fit the lineup at all. Keith or Blake could/should have been the closers to this event. Highly probable we're in for next year!!

    Keith Urban and Thomas Rhett were the bomb

    by Kelleyfl on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    We had a great time and met a lot of new friends. The VIP sections were much better this year than last. I think the line up was much better last year, however the bands played their hearts out. It was Hottttttttt......Please leave Kid Rock out of next years line up......

    Keith/Blake the best.

    by Anonymous on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    Keith was beyond amazing...Blake a close second. Miranda, Thomas Rhett, Jake Owen, Dan and Shay, were all wonderful. Way more than pleasantly surprised with Brooks and Dunn...they were great. Love Kip Moore's music, but really???,no interaction with his audience and no mention about the military. Not good. His acoustics were horrible...so loud that music and words were distorted. Being from Michigan, so looking forward to Kid Rock, but very disappointed. Too much rap... thought this was a country concert.

    Country 500 was a weekend to remember!

    by jgjax on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    From the line-up to the set-up, the Country 500 was awesome! Tens of thousands gathered to enjoy some of the best-known and soon-to-be best-known acts in country music, without any traffic snarls or long lines. Whether you paid for basic admission or Crew Chief VIP access, the event was enjoyable and well laid out, with lots of attention paid to using the grandiose space of the Daytona International Speedway to keep the crowd spread out and moving around. There were plenty of food stands, beer vendors, bars and bathrooms, and places to hang out in the shade. There were also other interesting diversions, like a Jack Daniels Distillery Tour (on wheels), a giant water slide and a Ferris wheel. It was a really good time! The event staff were accommodating and friendly, from Stephen and the parking staff to dancing Diana the bathroom attendant! Acts on two stages, one in-door under-a tent- theater, and the giant stage outdoors, kept music fans entertained from 3pm until 11pmish each of the three days. My favorite new-finds were Mo Pitney and A Thousand Horses, while so many of my old-favorites were there that it wouldn't be possible to say who I enjoyed the most. One outstanding performance came from Chris Janson (It Can Buy Me A Boat), who in-spite of being on the main stage at 3:30 pm on the hottest day, rocked the crowd for an hour and left them wanting more! As an annual event, this is one for the calendar!

    Staff

    my review of the show concentrates on the staff that were employed to work. They were amazing. Shuttles were a joke.

    by janter on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    Loved the new layout, priority entry for three day ticket holders and preferred parking! Missed some of the food vendors from last time, but plenty of other good stuff to eat! Cant believe Martina McBride relegated to tent...she's awesome!

    Concerts and camping 100%

    by Eweeks9 on 5/31/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    Awesome experience. All that could make it better would be many more restrooms. Not nearly enough for all the people.

    Thomas Rhett & Blake worth it!!

    Hot Country Fun!

    by WilEdoit on 5/30/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    We went on Saturday of this 3 day event. Great country music. Well worth the price of admission. The only downside was the afternoon temperatures soaring into the '90s at this outdoor event. Have the event in late March or early April next year and it will be perfect!

    Amazing day!

    by TheTbotts on 5/30/17Daytona International Speedway - Daytona Beach

    We had an awesome time watching everyone. The only downside is that we were standing right at the front and as more and more people crowded in it was impossible to leave our spot to go to the restrooms and make it back to the rest of our group. Other than that I would absolutely go again.

    The festival was fun and I enjoy the shows. But they should organize the setup better. In other words the vendors should not have been place so close to the main stage. If you can't walk or roll yourself to the nearest beer/other vendor than you either need to quit drinking or not drink at all. The vendors should not be place between the viewing area and the stage.
