The 48th Annual Hope Watermelon Festival is set to deliver a spectacular evening of music and entertainment with multi-award-winning country artist Rodney Atkins headlining this year’s concert event. Known for his chart-topping hits and genuine, down-to-earth charm, Atkins is sure to provide a memorable performance that will have festival-goers on their feet and singing along all night.
Rodney Atkins, one of Country Music’s biggest stars, has achieved remarkable success in his career, including being named the Top New Male Vocalist at the ACM Awards. His single “Watching You” not only topped the charts but was also declared the Number One Song of the Decade by Country Aircheck, earning the songwriter a BMI “Million-Air” Award.
With six Number One singles, eight Top 5 singles, and 3.8 billion career streams, Atkins continues to be recognized as one of the most powerful voices in Country Music. He was the second most-played male artist of the decade overall and has sold over 11.4 million units, earning ten career Gold, Platinum, and Multi-Platinum RIAA certifications. His latest Gold-certified single, “Caught Up In The Country (feat. The Fisk Jubilee Singers),” set the record for the longest-running single in Billboard Country Airplay history at 57 weeks. Atkins has performed on NBC’s TODAY Show, GMA’s Strahan & Sara, and FOX & Friends.
“We are thrilled to welcome Rodney Atkins to the 48th Annual Hope Watermelon Festival,” said festival organizer Christy Burns. “His undeniable talent, combined with his genuine connection to his fans, makes him the perfect headliner for this year’s event. Get ready for an unforgettable night of music, laughter, and good old-fashioned fun!”
