The performance is part of the band’s Back to the U.S. tour, presented by Ford F-Series and hosted by Concerts on a Part-Time Status (COPS) Productions in conjunction with the Put-in-Bay Port Authority.

“Last year we proved that Put-in-Bay and the Shores & Islands region can put on an amazing show,” Tim Niese, festival organizer and local businesman, said in a news release. “Being able to secure a multi-award-winning group like Rascal Flatts will help us make this year’s festival bigger and better than ever.”

This year’s music festival also includes Chris Lane and the Cory Farley Band.

Miller Ferry and Jet Express will provide late-night boat service to and from Put-in-Bay and there will be limited car parking available, as well as parking for golf carts at the airport. Food trucks will be on site, and taxis and buses will be staged at the north end of the runway to transport the public to downtown.
