Warren will be joined by his Gov’t Mule bandmate, Danny Louis, during portions of each night’sperformance.

Located on over 10 acres of manicured farmland, South Farms boasts a beautifully structured grid layout, adhering to public health guidelines while still maintaining the intimacy of live concerts and social distancing through vast spacing and outdoor, open air conditions. Each ticket allows entry for two people as concertgoers will purchase an 8’x8′ Grid which is surrounded by an additional Social Distance Grid along with aisle spacing. Each grid is designed for two guests and is offset to maximize stage view. Grids cannot be merged and it is required to watch the performance from the designated area. Guests are welcome to bring lawn chairs and blankets for comfortable seating and enjoying the farm field. While outside food and beverages are prohibited, food trucks and a full bar will be available on site.
Safety is the top priority, and both shows will comply with the most current health and safety standards per state regulations and local jurisdictions in order to protect guests, artists, crew and staff. Face masks are mandatory when entering, exiting, and traveling throughout the venue to restrooms or concession areas. Masks are not required while in Guest Grid, however in accordance with Executive Order No. 7NNN: “Effective immediately, any person in a public place in Connecticut, whether indoors or outdoors, who does not maintain a safe social distance of approximately six feet from every other person shall cover their mouth and nose with a mask or cloth face-covering.” Hand sanitizing stations will be dispersed throughout the venue. High-touch areas such as door handles and counter surfaces will be regularly and consistently disinfected throughout the show. Restrooms will be cleaned and restocked regularly as well. Everyone entering the venue, including guests, artists, crew and staff will be health checked including a temperature check and short questionnaire. Masks and gloves will be available upon request.
