Nashville, TN – The critically acclaimed Drive-In Theater Tour series, produced by Awakening Events, is growing again. Awakening Events today announced that Casting Crowns will join industry titans TobyMac, Michael W. Smith, Steven Curtis Chapman, Mac Powell, and more as part of the Drive-In Theater Tour Series. The Casting Crowns tour begins in Fayetteville, AR on July, 15th, with dates planned in Florida, Oklahoma, Texas, Indiana, Ohio, and more.

“When we began discussing the Drive-In Theater series and which artists made the most sense, Casting Crowns was an immediate YES,” said Dan Fife, President and Founder of Awakening Events. “We’ve had a long history of successful shows with Casting Crowns. The powerful way in which their music impacts people is something that is needed in this season. I’m honored that the Casting Crowns’ team has decided to join us on this exciting new journey, taking live music to the people, on the Drive-In Theater Tour Series.”

When speaking with Mark Hall, lead vocalist of Casting Crowns about the Drive-In Theater tour concept he had this to say. “We are excited for the opportunity to get out and play some shows in a safe environment. I think on a lot of levels families need this right now. We pray these nights will offer people hope.”

All dates on the Drive-In Theater Tour will comply with local guidelines related to Covid-19. “We’ve heard the demands from our fans, and we’re working hard to bring live music back to as many locations as possible,” said Curtis Pinkerton, director of Marketing at Awakening Events. “We’re excited today to be able to safely add 7 additional states to the Drive-In Theater Tour Series footprint. Tickets for the tour will again be sold by the car load* (up to 6 people per car) and will be available for purchase at 12pm EDT tomorrow, June 19th.

A full list of cities and dates for the tour is available at www.awakeningevents.com or www.driveintheatertour.com.

The Drive-In Theater Tour, supported by K-Love & Air1 Radio, Food for the Hungry, and Altrua HealthShare, is exclusively produced by Awakening Events.

*The 7/23/20 date in Destin, FL, Drive-In Theater Tour Presents: An Evening Under the Stars with Casting Crowns will be individual ticketing, NOT sold by the car.
