Justin Moore, Sawyer Brown, Phil Vassar, and Rodney Atkins join The Charlie Daniels Band For Christmas Benefit Show

Daniels, award-winning, platinum-selling icon, announced today that fellow country artists will join him for the annual Christmas 4 Kids (a division of Christmas For Kids, Inc) benefit concert taking place on November 25th at the Ryman Auditorium.  In addition, Charlie Chase will be on hand to emcee the evening’s festivities.

"Christmas 4 Kids is about helping underprivileged children who might not have much of a Christmas  if it weren't for this organization,” says Charlie Daniels.  “We'll be having fun helping to put smiles on a lot of faces this Christmas.  Thank you  Music City for your support and to our artist friends who come out every year."

Christmas 4 Kids is a not-for-profit organization that has been in existence for over 25 years providing many children, each year, with their very own shopping spree. The funds generated by the concert, and the Tour Bus Show/Artist Meet and Greet event, are used to give over 400 children from 29 different schools, a day-long shopping excursion.  The special day consists of a chauffeured trip from their school aboard an entertainer's luxury tour bus, dinner, and a party hosted by Santa and Mrs. Claus at the Hendersonville Expo Center. To wrap up the day, the tour buses journey to the Hendersonville, Tennessee, Wal*mart, where the kids receive a brand new winter coat, and $150.00 to spend on anything they want!
 
Ticket Pricing: Tier One tickets: $60.00, Tier Two tickets: $32.50

Starting today, tickets for the concert are available through Christmas 4 Kids online at www.Christmas4kids.org.  No service charges are billed in addition to the ticket price when ordered on the event website.

Starting October 15, all tickets not sold via the Christmas4kids.org website will be available through TicketMaster or the Ryman Auditorium box office, and all applicable service charges will apply.
