Red, White and Boom to change locations

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Rupp Arena announced Thursday Red, White and Boom will be changing locations for 2018.

This year, the country music festival, which has been at Whitaker Bank Ballpark for several years, will be held at Rupp Arena.

The arena says with the festival now being held indoors, fans will have perfect conditions the entire weekend. There will also be reserved seating available, in addition to the general admission pit area, with more affordable ticket prices.

According to Rupp Arena, 15 artists, five of those headliners, will perform at the festival, three more than in 2017.

They say two headliners will perform on Friday and Saturday, with one performing Sunday.

All artists performing in the festival will be announced Monday, June 4 at 7:20 a.m. on the festival’s website, www.RedWhiteAndBoom.com.
