AKRON, Ohio – Kaulig Companies will welcome multi-platinum country artist Bailey Zimmerman for a special headline concert event on Friday, July 10th, bringing one of country music’s fastest-rising stars to Akron for a night that blends live entertainment, championship golf, and a major moment for the local community.
The concert is a featured standalone event during Kaulig Companies Championship tournament week and marks a rare opportunity for Northeast Ohio fans to see Zimmerman in a high-energy and intimate setting.
Zimmerman has quickly emerged as one of country music’s breakout artists, known for his powerful vocals, authentic songwriting, and sold-out shows across the country.
Matt Kaulig, Executive Chairman of Kaulig Companies, said the concert reflects his commitment to bringing memorable experiences to Akron.
“This is about doing something big for Akron,” said Kaulig. “Bailey is an artist we’re really excited about, and this is the kind of show that doesn’t typically happen here without someone stepping in to make it possible. We’re proud to bring that energy to the community and give fans a night they won’t forget.”
Tim Clepper, President and CEO of Kaulig Companies, said the concert adds another signature moment to tournament week.
“This event is about creating experiences people remember,” said Clepper. “Bringing an artist like Bailey Zimmerman to Akron elevates everything we’re doing that week for the Kaulig Companies Championship. This concert will be a can’t-miss live music experience for the city.”
The concert will take place in the Infinity Zone, a custom outdoor concert venue built by Kaulig Companies at Firestone Country Club, transforming the tournament grounds into an intimate, high-end, live performance experience.
The concert will be a separately ticketed event from tournament admission. Register today for exclusive pre-sale to secure your ticket before the general public on June 12th at baileyzimmerman.ticketsauce.com.
