Country Music and Barbeque Festival Comes to Turner Park This Fall

Enjoy performances from two of country music’s hottest up-and-comers – and a whole lot of barbeque – at Country to the Core: Midtown’s Country Music & Barbeque Festival (www.midtowncrossing.com/events), six hours of boot scootin’, lip smackin’ good times.

Featuring Craig Wayne Boyd, winner of NBC’s The Voice: Season 7, and Todd O’Neill, winner of the recent Nash Next Challenge, the brand-new Country to the Core will take over Omaha’s Turner Park on Saturday, September 30, from 3:00 – 9:00 p.m. Local musician Jimmy Weber will serve as the opening act. In the tradition of Midtown Crossing’s popular Zydeco Festival, the day-long event will be free and open to the public.

To complement the country music, Midtown Crossing restaurants will be selling barbeque specialties on-site, along with a steady flow of cold drinks. Restaurants on the park are accepting outdoor patio reservations.
