The 5th Annual Freedom Fest will be headlined this year by Trace Adkins and Alan Jackson at the Patriot Center at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.

“We are very excited that Alan Jackson and Trace Adkins have agreed to join us in our efforts to help veterans and their families,” said Sergeant Major of the Army Jack L. Tiley (Ret.), co-founder of the America Freedom Foundation. “It is our goal to make this the biggest year ever.”

The American Freedom Foundation has raised money over the years to benefit different veterans organizations with an emphasis on education, welfare and other issues facing those families and veterans of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. The main goal of the foundation is to honor veterans of America’s armed forces.

The fair will take place Saturday, Oct. 25. Tickets go on sale Aug. 2 and can be purchased at all TicketMaster locations or by calling (800) 551-SEAT; you can also go to www.ticketmaster.com. There will also be appearances by “JAG” actress Karri Turner and WWE wrestler John Bradshaw Layfield and other celebrities. Tickets range from $30-$150.
