Dierks Bentley to Close Out Busch Light Summer Music Series at Iowa Speedway
NASCAR's Busch Light Summer Music Series has found its final performer for this year. Dierks Bentley, a longtime supporter of the sport and frequent participant in major racing events, will take the stage at Iowa Speedway on August 9 as part of the Cup Series Iowa Corn 350 Powered by Ethanol. This marks the culmination of the series' three-concert season.
The event is included with a Sunday race ticket and comes after Vincent Mason performed at Watkins Glen International in May and Mitchell Tenpenny is set to perform during Fourth of July weekend at Chicagoland Speedway. Iowa Speedway President Eric Peterson praised Bentley's history with NASCAR, saying his connection with fans made him the perfect choice for the series' finale.
The Busch Light Summer Music Series has been a key part of the partnership between NASCAR and Busch Light since its inception. The series combines pre-race concerts with NASCAR racing weekends to create an immersive experience for fans. Krystyn Stowe, head of marketing for Busch Family & Natural Family at Anheuser-Busch, noted that Bentley's appearance provides 'a fitting finale' for the lineup.
