Farm Aid comes to New England
This year’s Farm Aid concert, featuring Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews and others to be named later, will take place Sept. 20 at the Comcast Center in Mansfield, Mass. This marks the first time the benefit will take place in New England, where the Farm Aid organization is based.
“We are proud to bring our annual Farm Aid concert to a region that has such strong agricultural roots …,” Farm Aid president Willie Nelson said Tuesday in a statement. Whole Foods and Horizon Organic are the major sponsors.
Tickets go on sale July 28 at 9 a.m. on www.ticketmaster.com or by calling (866) 448-7849.
