Peachtree Entertainment recently announced the return of the Rock The Country concert to Anderson. Organizers announced last week that the two day event will not be returning to Anderson. No explanation has been given.
Regarding the announcement, Anderson County Administrator Rusty Burns said, “Anderson County has been proud to host Rock the Country for the past two years. The event was a huge success drawing tens of thousands of visitors, making a multi-million-dollar economic impact on the Upstate. An event of this caliber proved what a great venue and exceptional hospitality we have here in Anderson County. Of course, we are disappointed that Rock the Country will not return to Anderson this year.”
Burns said, “We are already planning additional major events and look forward to exciting announcements to come. Anderson County is committed to bringing high quality arts and entertainment to our community.”
The two-day event was to take place July 25 and 26 at the Anderson Sports and Entertainment Center and was being billed as a celebration of America’s 250th anniversary through music, community, and patriotism.
