Servicemen and women purchasing tickets for RedFest May 23-25 will pay only $59 for a three-day pass—a savings of 40 percent—when they verify their service at GovX.com and purchase their discounted RedFest tickets online at www.GovX.com/RedFest.

GovX.com is the largest e-commerce website for verified military, law enforcement, first responders and related government personnel and their families offering exclusive savings on premium brands and sports and event ticketing. COTA has teamed with GovX.com to offer service members discounts on a variety of sports and entertainment events held this year at the award-winning, multi-purpose venue in Central Texas.

“We want to put the ‘memory’ back in Memorial Day weekend and remind everyone of the tremendous sacrifices members of the U.S. Armed Forces, first responders and their families make every day to ensure America is still the home of the free and the brave,” said RedFest Co-Founder and Grand Marshal Jeff Foxworthy. “This is a great way for service members across the country to enjoy what we hope becomes a new Memorial Day weekend tradition—RedFest, a super-sized celebration of country and Southern music, rib-tickling comedy and all kinds of outdoor fun and games.”

RedFest presented by Natty Light will bring the hottest performers from country music and Southern rock Americana—such as Tim McGraw, Florida Georgia Line, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Big & Rich—plus hilarious comedians and iconic reality TV stars to COTA for three days of all-American activities. In honor of the Memorial Day holiday, RedFest will celebrate the “red, white and blue” while offering an awesome mix of outdoor experiences like hunting, fishing and camping, all kinds of sports and competitions, and mouth-watering food for the entire family.
