VALDOSTA, Ga. — Wild Adventures Theme Park in Valdosta, Georgia, has announced its 2025 concert and special events schedule, featuring an exciting mix of new and returning artists, seasonal festivals, and exclusive events for season passholders.

The Wild Adventures LIVE! concert series kicks off April 5 with the return of country rap star Colt Ford, known for the hits “Dirt Road Anthem” and “Country Must Be Country Wide.” Ford will perform on the Wild Adventures LIVE! Amphitheater stage, and this special opening show is the park’s Passholder Appreciation Concert.

“The first concert of the series is free for our Gold and Diamond Season Passholders who will receive reserved seats for the show,” said Jon Vigue, vice president and general manager. “It’s just one of the many perks of being a season passholder.”

The concert series continues throughout April, featuring legendary artist Willie Nelson & Family, who will be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame later this year. Southern rock icons The Marshall Tucker Band and 38 Special, known for hits like “Can’t You See” and “Caught Up In You,” will also take the stage.

In May, country star Walker Hayes, celebrated for his chart-topping hit “Fancy Like,” will perform, followed by Grammy-winning gospel artist CeCe Winans and contemporary Christian singer-songwriter Chris Tomlin.

Summer concerts include a June performance by Big & Rich, joined by special guest Gretchen Wilson, and shows by Grammy-nominated Christian artist Zach Williams and award-winning country singer Ashley McBryde. In July, guests can enjoy performances by hip-hop legends Rob Base and Doug E. Fresh, and the concert series wraps up with a performance by Christian rock band Skillet, marking their 15th appearance at Wild Adventures.

“Our lineup includes 15 award-winning artists and bands,” said Vigue. “We’re thrilled to bring these incredible shows and a season packed with special events to our guests.”

General Concert Admission is included with a Wild Adventures Season Pass.
