A fundraising concert for Nashville’s Cumberland Heights treatment center is set for Oct. 18 and will feature performances by Cassadee Pope, Kristian Bush, Lindsay Ell, Michael Ray, Scotty McCreery and others in an “Opry-style” format at the Ryman Auditorium.
“These artists have hearts as big as their talents,” said Cumberland Heights’ CEO Jay Crosson. “We’re grateful to all the performers – and the many event sponsors – for helping The Concert for Cumberland Heights help hundreds of teens recover life.“
Cumberland Heights will host a VIP pre-party at the Hilton Downtown from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. before the show, which is being hosted by comedian Henry Cho. Tickets are on sale via ticketmaster.com, the Ryman box office, ryman.com and by phone at 800.745.3000. Cumberland Heights is offering special ticket packages through its website cumberlandheights.org, which include a pre-party with a strolling dinner at the Hilton Downtown and priority seating during the concert. Proceeds from the event support Cumberland Heights’ adolescent and young adult treatment programs which help patients set goals for recovery while helping them process life’s consequences and unmanageability.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the concert event. Prior concerts have raised $3.1 million for adolescent services.
