MADISON, WIS. – As World Dairy Expo® prepares for its comeback show, after cancelling due to COVID-19 in 2020, a schedule of new and modified events awaits attendees and exhibitors in Madison, Wisconsin, September 28 through October 2. Highlighting the additions to the 2021 schedule is the Sunset Celebration, a free concert on Friday, October 1 at 8:00 p.m. in The Tanbark.
The Sunset Celebration headline artist is Dillon Carmichael with special guest Meghan Patrick. On the verge of his next album release, Carmichael is ready to entertain with his songs "Hot Beer," "Sawin' Logs," "Made To Be A Country Boy" and more. Carmichael, born into a musical family that includes uncles John Michael and Eddie Montgomery, blends country and rock influences to create a sound designed for Expo's stage. Meanwhile, Patrick is a two-time Canadian Country Music Association Female Artist of the Year who recently released her first album with Nashville record label, Riser House Records.
Tickets for the inaugural Sunset Celebration are free but limited and available starting at noon (CST) on September 1 at worlddairyexpo.com. Members of the dairy industry are encouraged to reserve their tickets early for this celebration.
Expo attendees looking for music and entertainment throughout the week of World Dairy Expo can also find it in The Tanbark during Happy Hour!
