Manhattan Drive-In to Show Garth Brooks Concert
Garth Brooks joined Good Morning America last week to announce he will perform a concert that will be played at drive-in theaters across the country. It's Garth Brooks, so you know it's going to be big!
The concert will play at over 300 drive-in locations for the one-night-only event. Including Manhattan Montana's own Pasture Drive-In Theater on Saturday, June 27th at 9:45 p.m. at 360 Little Camp Creek Way.
Tickets go on sale Friday, June 19th and will be $100 per car with a limit of 150 cars. There is a limit of 6 people per car or the number of legal seatbelts in the car, whichever is fewer. If you break that down for a carload of people, it's not that bad per person.
The Pasture Drive-In will be joining the XL Morning Show on-air Friday morning to discuss more about this exclusive event before tickets go on sale. They have been showing movies on their current 22-foot painter's canvas but will have a 40-foot movie screen for the Garth Brooks Concert.
During the event, they will be raffling off guitar donated by Gibson Guitars to a lucky Garth Drive-In Concert goer. Raffle Tickets will only be sold at the show and will be $20 each or 2 for $25 with $5.00 going to the Food Bank all other funds will be going towards a mission trip.
Porter Blanchard, a senior at Manhattan High, started the Pasture Drive-In as part of his Entrepreneur class. The assignment was to create a business plan and a business. Youth Entrepreneur offers $300 for well thought out business plans. When asked about how the idea for the Drive-In all started Blanchard stated:
We were brainstorming for two months different ideas. Then one night over family dinner (school had just been canceled and the whole country shut down basically) [we] came up with the Drive-In idea in order for people to get out and do something and still abide by social distancing guidelines.
