UNADILLA – Joining more than 300 drive-in theaters across the country, the Unadilla Drive-In will screen a one-night-only concert event by country superstar Garth Brooks on Saturday, June 27.
“I am so excited to get to play again. I have missed it so much and want to get back to it,” said Brooks. “This drive-in concert allows us all to get back to playing live music without the uncertainty of what would be the result to us as a community. This is old school, new school, and perfect for the time we are in.”
