The Ally 400 NASCAR race weekend at Nashville Superspeedway is set to deliver a thrilling experience not only on the race track but also through an incredible lineup of music entertainment and performances. From June 22-25, fans will be treated to a diverse range of talented local and national artists, showcasing their skills at various locations throughout the event.
Award-winning country music singer and songwriter Parker McCollum will headline the weekend’s lineup while getting fans revved up Sunday for the Ally 400 when he takes the stage as the official pre-race concert performer. McCollum will perform at approximately 4:15 p.m. from the pre-race concert stage located on pit road. Fans attending the race have the opportunity to enhance their experience by purchasing a pre-race track pass for $75 that provides stage-front access for the concert and driver introductions. The pre-race track pass also includes access to the Turn 4 Infield experience, which provides views down pit road and the opportunity to view the race from within the infield. The pre-race track pass must be accompanied by a race day ticket.
McCollum is expected to sing many of his popular songs including his No. 1 platinum-selling hits “Pretty Heart” and “To Be Loved By You” from his critically-acclaimed debut album Gold Chain Cowboy. The Texas native has been recognized as an “Artist to Watch” by Rolling Stone, Billboard, CMT and many others. MusicRow listed McCollum as its 2021 Breakout Artist of the Year and in 2022 he was named the ACM New Male Artist of the Year in Las Vegas.
