Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø Invites Community to Share the Moment, Feel the Music at Mayhem
VALDOSTA — Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø presents Mayhem Music Festival from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. Friday, May 1, on the Front Lawn. Admission is free of charge and open to the public.
“Mayhem is more than a concert,” said Dr. Joseph Romero, director of Student Life at Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø. “It is a campus tradition that brings students, faculty, staff, alumni, and the Valdosta-Lowndes County community together for a night of music and celebration. It’s designed to create lasting memories and showcase the energy of Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø and Blazer Nation.”
Mama Stone performs at 6:05 p.m., followed by XENA at 7:15 p.m.
The headliner, Grand Party Experience, takes the stage at 8 p.m., turning Mayhem Music Festival into a full-on celebration. This group is known to keep crowds on their feet as they deliver a high-energy show filled with marching band theatrics, elite dancers, and dynamic vocalists.
As tradition dictates, Mayhem Music Festival draws to a close with a much-anticipated paint party featuring music by DJ Lavish at 10 p.m. Attendees wishing to participate in this activity should dress accordingly.
Mayhem Music Festival features carnival-style rides, inflatables, and games, as well as food trucks and catering by Big Nick’s and Blazer Dining.
Food trucks will accept cash and card purchases only.
Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø students with a valid 1Card will receive a ticket pack for Big Nick’s and Blazer Dining. Everyone else can access the catered dining options for $10.
