What do Indigo Girls, Tedeschi Trucks and The Hooters have in common?
Through a partnership between Appel Farm Arts & Music Campus and BRE Presents, these bands will bring the music back to the Meadow Stage at Appel Farm this summer.
When asked about the partnership, Cori Solomon, Executive Director of Appel Farm Arts & Music Campus, said, “I’m thrilled that our campus is once again experiencing the thrill and community of large-scale outdoor concerts!
“Although we focused six years ago on educating the arts for young people and families in our region, we were looking for a financially sustainable way to bring our magical scenes to life. After the terrible year that passed, a spark of hope was kindled when BRE Presents offered their mutual interest in our venue for the sake of these amazing artists playing,” said Solomon.
“By teaming up, our dedicated volunteers and fans will support the concerts while BRE will provide the capacity, expertise and capital to get some of our favorite artists back on the farm.”

According to the BRE Presents Facebook page, concert tickets are available in four-seat “pods,” with a limited number of two-seat pods available. This will provide “the best opportunity for as many fans as possible to enjoy the show, and to do so safely, responsibly and in accordance with applicable health and safety regulations and guidelines!”
The concerts will take place outside, rain or shine, with seating on the lawn. Ticket holders can bring blankets and chairs.
When a Facebook user asked if he could dance during the concert, BRE Presents replied, “Of course you can dance! We just ask that you be mindful of your neighbors and stay in your pod to stay socially distant and safe.
