Before your favorite team takes the field in the Fall of 2013, bring the entire family to the white, sandy beaches of Gulf Shores & Orange Beach, AL for the 2nd SEC BeachFest, a championship celebration that will kick-off the 2013 college football season. Join us August 15 – 18 as we kick off the SEC fall football season with legendary coaches and players, football clinics, a fishing tournament, a golf scramble, a 5k run, concerts and alumni happy hours.
The SEC BeachFest Friday night concert will feature “Bayou Soul” style of Louisiana native, Marc Broussard (below left). The singer-songwriter is known for blending rock, R&B and blues and wrapping it all up with a Southern twist. His song “Home” was a hit on the radio and has been performed by the likes of Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton. Broussard has performed on several late-night talk shows including Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Late Night with Conan O’Brien.

On Saturday night, “Take a Back Road” down to the beach and catch Rodney Atkins (above left).. The hard-working country star has been nominated for several Academy of Country Music and Country Music Association awards and was named ACM’s Top New Male Vocalist in 2006. The Knoxville native’s no. 1 singles include “If You’re Going Through Hell (Before the Devil Even Knows),” “These Are My People,” and Platinum hits like “Take a Back Road” and “Farmer’s Daughter.” Both concerts are scheduled to start at 8 p.m. and are free with your SEC BeachFest ticket.
