Tracy Lawrence has announced the star-studded lineup for the return of his 20th annual Mission: Possible Turkey Fry and Benefit Concert, taking place on November 25th at Luke Combs’ Category 10 in Nashville.
In addition to Lawrence, the event will include performances from Gretchen Wilson, Eric Paslay, Chris Cagle and special guests Halfway to Hazard. For ticket information, head HERE.
New this year, fans can bring canned food items to the event to donate to Second Harvest Food Bank to help support families and individuals facing food insecurity. For every five cans donated, participants will be entered into a raffle for a signed guitar. The guitar features signatures from Lawrence’s annual golf tournament, including some of country music’s biggest names like Lawrence, Vince Gill, Zach Top, Priscilla Block, Warren Zeiders, Gavin Adcock, Charles Esten and more.
The milestone anniversary of the Mission: Possible Turkey Fry and Benefit Concert aims to feed over 32,000 people in need in Middle Tennessee through the Nashville Rescue Mission, eight surrounding county school systems, and boots on the ground community organizations who provide for those in need. With the help of Cargill, the Poultry Federation and Operation BBQ, the event has expanded to feed more people in the community with 2,000 cooked turkeys – 400 more than last year – and 1,200 frozen turkeys distributed.
Lawrence said in a statement: “I cannot believe we are celebrating the 20th anniversary of the turkey fry. This event started with a few of my buddies in a church parking lot and only cooking 200 birds. Now our footprint has grown, and we’re cooking 2,000 turkeys and feeding so many throughout Middle Tennessee. Big things!”
Lawrence’s Mission: Possible has fried over 10,000 turkeys, provided more than 86,000 meals to the homeless across Middle Tennessee, donated over $1M to Nashville Rescue Mission and raised over $2.5 million, which helps to further its goals, advocate for those in need and expand their ability to support aligned causes. Last year’s concert raised $250,000 and featured performances by Lawrence, Russell Dickerson, Meghan Patrick, John Schneider and Halfway To Hazard. Past performers of the annual concert include Tim McGraw, Luke Combs, Chris Young, Lainey Wilson, Jason Aldean, Cole Swindell, Justin Moore, Dustin Lynch, Lee Brice and more.
