Hunter Hayes and ConAgra Foods have teamed up to help end child hunger while attempting to break the Guinness World Record for the Most Concerts Played in multiple cities in a 24-hour period.
The current record stands at eight shows in 24 hours, set by the Flaming Lips. Hayes aims to perform 10 shows in 10 cities in 24 hours. Hayes will launch the “Hunter Hayes’ 24 Hour Road Race to End Child Hunger” on Friday, May 9 with a performance on Good Morning America in New York City.
ConAgra is also issuing a challenge to break its own record of the most meals donated in 24 hours. For more information, visit childhungerendshere.com.
The “24 Hour Road Race” is presented in part by Martin Guitar, Procter & Gamble, Mercedes-Benz USA, and Ahold USA. Hunter is a Martin Guitar ambassador and will perform on a Martin OM-42 at each show, which will be auctioned at the end of the event to benefit the cause. Mercedes-Benz USA is the official car vehicle of the “24 Hour Road Race.”
