Big Lick Entertainment has announced the dates for its 2017 Flat Pickin’ Fridays country concert series at Daleville Town Center.
The five monthly shows will feature a number of bands, vendors and activities.
The Flat Pickin’ Fridays series began in 2015 as a signature, family-friendly event for Council of Community Services with Big Lick Entertainment, according to a news release from Big Lick.
Within its first year it became the council’s biggest fundraiser for non-restricted funds in over five years and attracts thousands to the Daleville Town Center Pavilion with its May thru September concerts, with 100 percent of proceeds from ticket and beverage sales benefiting the local non-profit.
