Kip Moore to Headline Final Busch Light Summer Music Series Concert at Darlington Raceway

DARLINGTON, SOUTH CAROLINA — Country music fans and NASCAR lovers will come together on August 31st for a thrilling fusion of horsepower and heartstrings as Kip Moore headlines the final concert in the 2025 Busch Light Summer Music Series at Darlington Raceway.

The performance will serve as the official pre-race concert before the green flag drops at the Cook Out Southern 500, one of NASCAR’s most iconic races — and the closing event of Darlington’s 75th anniversary celebration.

A Fitting Finale for a Music-Fueled Racing Season

The Busch Light Summer Music Series has brought five full-length concerts to NASCAR venues this year, with Kip Moore taking the stage for the grand finale. Known for hits like “Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck” and “Beer Money,” Moore’s high-energy performance is expected to rev up the crowd before engines roar to life.

The stage will be set on the frontstretch of Darlington Raceway, giving fans an unforgettable view and experience. Entry to the concert is included with a paid race ticket, while a $35 pre-race pass offers priority access near the stage.

Country Stars & Racing Thrills

Moore joins a powerful lineup of artists who have performed throughout the 2025 Busch Light Summer Music Series. Earlier shows included performances by:

• Ernest
• Nate Smith
• Corey Kent, whose recent Iowa Speedway concert came shortly after his first Country Airplay No. 1 with “This Heart.”

Kent’s set included fan favorites like “Wild As Her” at the Iowa Corn 350 NASCAR Cup Series event — another key highlight of the summer series.
