Response to the vote by the Loudon Zoning Board in favor of standalone concerts at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, from David McGrath, executive vice president and general manager of NHMS:

“This decision is terrific news for music fans, local business and for tourism in the Capitol Region. We deeply value our relationship with the people of Loudon and surrounding communities and thank the members of the Loudon Zoning Board for their support. New Hampshire Motor Speedway is proud of its tradition of hosting high quality, family-oriented entertainment options. A recent impact study concludes the country music festival will have an overwhelmingly positive economic impact on the region.”
