Live music from Stranger and Rock This Way, food trucks and a show featuring skydiving and pyrotechnics are on tap, and the entire setup will be designed to accommodate social distancing requirements from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and the state.
“We created an event that has a skydiving performance from a world-renowned, world record-holding team called Team Fastrax, and we included some live music because people love live music,” said Cheryl Dillin, chief brand officer of Dayton-based Dillin Corp., which is organizing the event.
“We included food trucks because people love food, and we engaged a third-party researcher to help us with our parking plan so that we could maximize the social distancing while in a tailgate style so that people wouldn’t have to sit in their cars, but could certainly sit behind their car, and still fit safely with other cars around them.”
Visiting between cars will not be permitted, and groups are to be capped at 10.
“As long as your group of 10 people is socially distanced from the next group of 10 people and you’re outside — that makes a big difference — then technically you are meeting those rules in place,” Dillin said.
Coolers are permitted, but games such as corn hole or Frisbee are not.
Because the entertainment will be in the sky, the organizers ask attendees not to bring flags, tents or any other item taller than 8 feet to avoid blocking the view of others.
Admission is $35 per car, $50 for an SUV and $150 for RVs.
All tickets will be purchased prior to the event and scanned touch-free. They were set to go on sale today and can be purchased at TheFreedomTour2020.com.
