The rising popularity of music festivals seems only outpaced by the rising price tags that fans end up paying for them, but
some festivals are still a real value. The
BayFest Music Festival in Mobile, Ala., is
one, and has been for the past 17 years. Drawing top artists in genres like country, modern rock, jazz and rap, fans get three
days of early-October fun for only $45 -- that's less than most single concerts. But CMT can do even better. With our
King
and Queen of BayFest Sweeps, one lucky fan and a guest will get the royal, all-inclusive, roll-out-the-red-carpet treatment
with free VIP admission and airfare, a five-star hotel for three nights, free drinks and grub in the festival's VIP reception
area and even a guitar signed by the BayFest artists. Artists like
Reba McEntire,
Lady Antebellum,
Kid Rock,
Rascal Flatts,
Alan Jackson,
Little Big Town,
Toby
Keith,
Blake Shelton and
Wynonna,
to be exact. And that's just the country lineup. In tough economic times, it sure would be nice to feel like royalty for a
few days, right? And to hold on to summer for just a little bit longer, so enter now.
