The Big Sting – It’s a Country Thing
October 21, 2016 @ 9:00 am - October 23, 2016 @ 11:55 pm
Shadows Foundation presents Big Sting – It’s A Country Thing 2016, Friday October 21st through Sunday the 23rd at Bumble Bee Ranch, 50 miles north of Phoenix. Big Sting is a country music festival featuring performances by Trick Pony, Aaron Watson, Shari Rowe, Matt Farris, Davey Arnold, Dylan Jakobsen, Tyller Gummersall, Drew Cooper, Michael Harter and Two Way Crossing. Big Sting distinguishes itself among other festivals by raising funds for Shadows Foundation, a non-profit founded in 2010 by Flagstaff KAFF radio personality Vicki Burton. The genesis for shadows came after Burton personally experienced the ongoing effects of loved ones battling cancer. Shadows Foundation is dedicated to providing services and financial assistance to northern Arizona residents battling life-threatening diseases. Big Sting’s weekend festival includes campsites, vendors, activities, black jack tournament and ORV riding off ranch premises. The festival site opens at 9 a.m. on Friday the 21st. Tickets and campsites are on sale now at thebigsting.com.
