Two Part Event Includes A Celebrity Ping Pong Tournament And Intimate Concert
Nashville, TN – Feb. 12, 2013 – GRAMMY winning trio Lady Antebellum
have set the date for their inaugural PING PONG & SONGS fundraising
event for March 23 in Nashville, TN. Inspired by a combination of the
band’s favorite backstage hobby and their love of songwriting, the event
includes a celebrity ping pong tournament and an in-the-round style
songwriters’ night, both benefiting the group’s newly created charitable
initiative LadyAID™. Tickets for both portions of the event go on sale
this Fri., Feb. 15 at 10:00A CT through LadyAID.org.
“This is really a dream day for us…getting friends and fans together to
play ping pong, play music and raise money for LadyAID,” said Dave
Haywood. “Charles and I…better known as ‘The Dynasty’…will challenge
anyone who wants to try and take us at the table! It’s going to be a
total blast.”
With registration to the tournament, players
will receive a commemorative player kit and two tickets to the finals
and concert portion of the event. Individual tournament finals tickets
and ticket bundles are also available for purchase. All proceeds will
benefit LadyAID™. For more ticket information or to make a donation,
