NEW YORK (CelebrityAccess) – Baseball fans across America are in for a treat with the debut of Music on the Diamond, a groundbreaking concert series set to take place at iconic Minor League ballparks nationwide. Spearheaded by Diamond Baseball Holdings (DBH), the owner and operator of select Minor League clubs affiliated with Major League Baseball (MLB), and promoted by William Morris Endeavor (WME) and Doussan Music Group (DMG), this series promises an unforgettable experience for music lovers and sports enthusiasts alike.
Acclaimed artists Miranda Lambert and Thomas Rhett will headline Music on the Diamond. Lambert, a three-time Grammy Award winner and record holder for the most accolades in the Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards history, including the prestigious Entertainer of the Year award, kicks off the series with four electrifying performances. The lineup culminates with a highly anticipated show featuring country music superstar Rhett.
This innovative collaboration represents a significant moment, as it brings top-tier entertainment to fans and reimagines Minor League ballparks as vibrant cultural hubs within their communities. The series marks a bold step towards expanding the role of these ballparks beyond baseball and fostering deeper connections with fans and communities.
“Bringing exciting new events and experiences that foster community and draw more people to our ballparks has been a goal of ours at DBH since the very beginning, so launching ‘Music on the Diamond’ is a momentous occasion for us,” said Pat Battle and Peter Freund, Executive Chairman and CEO of DBH, respectively. “Whether you’re catching a glimpse of the Skyliner rollercoaster just beyond the right-field wall at Peoples Natural Gas Field in Altoona or taking in the view of the Sierra Mountains on a clear day at Chukchansi Park in Fresno, Minor League ballparks provide some of the most unique atmospheres for entertainment. We’re thrilled to see these cornerstones of the community open their doors to the public as often as possible.”
