Raymond hosting drive-in concert featuring Metallica Aug. 29

Posted on August 13, 2020 by admin

The Town of Raymond is pleased to announce its second drive-in concert event on Aug. 29 featuring Metallica with Three Days Grace.

“The on-screen concert is exclusive to drive-in theatres in North America, and Raymond will be the only location in Alberta hosting this one-of-a-kind show,” said Greg Robinson with the Town of Raymond, in a press release. “Raymond is the only place in all of Alberta to view this one of a kind concert.”

EncoreLive is the event production company that has created this series of concerts, and fans will experience the Encore Drive-In Nights concert feature and additional Encore Drive-In Nights shows from the safety of their vehicles.

Alberta Health COVID-19 guidelines will be in effect in order to protect the health and well being of all those in attendance. Staff will wear personal protective equipment and enforce at least six feet of space between cars. Guidelines around concessions will be enforced to abide by Alberta Health rules and regulations.

Unlike traditional concert tickets that are bought for individual admission, each ticket for the Raymond Drive-In Night will admit one passenger car, truck or SUV. That means up to six family members or friends (as many as there are legal seatbelts) can enjoy these exciting experiences together for one low cost.

“In July, the town was the only venue in Alberta to feature Blake Shelton to a sell-out crowd,” continued Robinson. “That show had concert goers from all over Alberta attend and many visiting Raymond for the first time.”

Using your vehicle’s own radio system and watching the show on a four-story tall screen means that those in attendance will each have a great seat to take in this concert.
