Voted “Best Music Concert” in 2011 and 2012 by Charleston City Paper readers, Zac Brown Band’s Southern Ground Music & Food Festival returns for a third year to Charleston, SC on Saturday and Sunday, October 19 and 20. Presented by LandShark Lager, ZBB’s ultimate sensory experience will take place at Blackbaud Stadium on Daniel Island in Berkeley County.

Called “impressive” (Hollywood Reporter), “top notch” (Charleston City Paper) and all together “epic” (People), the festival will feature sets by Willie Nelson & Family, Band of Horses, The Head and the Heart, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, Dawes, and Kacey Musgraves, among additional names to be announced soon.

Continuing the festival’s annual tradition – which the band kicked off last year with iconic artists such as Gregg Allman and John Mayer – ZBB’s “Super Sets” will close both nights with special sit-in performances also to be announced soon.

The Charleston event follows the festival’s second visit to Nashville, taking place this September 27 and 28.
